Experienced Supplement Sourcing Agent Needed (China)

We are looking for an experienced sourcing professional with a proven track record in the dietary supplement industry, specifically with manufacturers in China. Our company currently sells dietary supplements in the US market and we are evaluating manufacturing options for two softgel products. Products Product 1 – Ceylon Cinnamon Softgels Target formulation: 600mg Ceylon Cinnamon Extract (12:1) per serving Equivalent to 7,200mg raw Ceylon Cinnamon Softgel format Product 2 – Aged Garlic Softgels Target formulation: 500mg Aged Garlic Extract (15:1) per serving Equivalent to 7,500mg raw garlic Softgel format Additional Requirement Our preference is to achieve the target dosage in a single softgel serving, if technically feasible. Consumer experience is very important to us. The softgels we currently produce are relatively small, and we would prefer to avoid excessively large softgels whenever possible. We are looking for manufacturers capable of achieving the required potency while maintaining a softgel size that remains comfortable for consumers. If alternative approaches would be more suitable, we would like to hear your recommendations and the reasoning behind them. Manufacturing Requirements The manufacturers must: Have experience producing dietary supplements for the US market Be FDA registered for dietary supplement manufacturing Be GMP certified Have experience producing custom softgel formulations Be able to provide documentation suitable for Amazon compliance Have experience exporting to the United States Laboratory & Testing Requirements The manufacturer must be able to provide testing through ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratories such as: Eurofins SGS Intertek Mérieux NutriSciences Equivalent internationally recognized laboratories Testing capabilities should include: Heavy Metals Microbiology Potency Verification / Label Claim Verification (VERY IMPORTANT) Batch COAs Other compliance testing required for Amazon or the US supplement market What We Want From You Before moving forward, we would like your professional assessment. Please explain: What approach would you take in our situation? What manufacturing options would you recommend? What are the pros and cons of each option? Do you believe these target formulations are realistically achievable in a single softgel while maintaining a reasonable softgel size? If not, what alternatives would you recommend? What timeline would you expect for sourcing, sampling, formulation validation, testing, and production? What costs should we realistically expect? How would you verify that a manufacturer can actually deliver the required active ingredient concentrations before placing a large order? Have you worked on similar supplement projects before? If yes, please provide examples. Important We are not looking for someone to simply send us a list of factories. We are looking for an experienced sourcing professional who can evaluate manufacturers, negotiate pricing, verify capabilities, review testing documentation, and help us choose the best long-term manufacturing partner.
