Is here somebody who can give advice on this? I would like to market my own brand of supplements.

What are good manufacturers? How about packing the stuff and the labels?

I take it you are aware of the huge investment involved to get this off the ground? Not just the bulk purchases, and cost of capping, but the marketing needed to sell the stuff before it expires.

You could talk to Anthony of Revgenetics about just what he had to go through.

Good luck!! Hope you have some interesting stuff in mind.

Hi,

I am in the same boat as you mate. I am starting my own supplement high street store and website and I dont believe you need a huge investment. I believe you just need to be a good salesperson. Let the massive companies pour their money into advertising whilst we speak to people and educate them that all whey protein is the same no matter how much you pay for it. I am in the process of making a business plan for a company that will be based in cumbria lake district. I already have some work done. Reply on here once you have read this and we can discuss if there is any scope to piggy back of each other or join forces.

I am only thinking about a small webstore right now. I could sell something almost immediately on my website, but do not have anything to sell yet.

My country is not UK, but I am in the EU.

I maybe could help you. I do graphic design so I can design labels and marketing materials. I have a brand in the making which I am calling Protein Authority. I also have a supplier of top quality protein made in england. If I came up with a design that you and I agree on. I could Distribute my brand to you and give you a copy of my website in your chosen language. That way we can appear to be a large global brand because we are in more than 1 country. I guy from america messaged me earlier who wants to get involved within the supplement industry so if he agree's to this aswell all 3 of us will have a brand present in UK, USA and EU.

Yes, I need a logo and labels. I am thinking about a small local brand. I already have a website.

I could also sell other brands on my website if they are good quality.
