Among the many manufacturing companies, how do you choose a brand’s OEM factory without falling into pitfalls?

‌Check qualifications and certificates‌: A legitimate factory should have a cosmetics production license, ISO quality management system certification, and ideally GMPC or ISO22716 international certification.

‌Inspect the workshop standards‌: A reliable factory usually has a 100,000-grade GMP clean production workshop, equipped with automated filling production lines and testing laboratories.

‌Ask about the minimum order quantity (MOQ)‌: For small-batch trial orders, the MOQ is generally around 5,000 units. For large-volume production, a lower unit price can be negotiated. Make sure to confirm this in advance to avoid later disputes.

‌Request sample production and testing‌: Factories that support free or low-cost sample production are more worthy of cooperation. Request raw material test reports and production standard documents.

‌Factory scale‌: Large factories generally have better reputation and product quality assurance, especially in terms of production environment, production processes, and workflows, where the differences can be significant.
