Custom Manufacturer for Texas Supplement Brands

Texas manufacturing for supplements, at a glance
Why Texas brands outgrow their first manufacturer
Texas ranks fourth in the country for dietary supplement industry presence, behind California, New Jersey and New York, according to the Council for Responsible Nutrition’s 2023 Economic Impact Study. It is also where a lot of brands hit a ceiling. The small co-packer that handled the first two thousand units cannot handle twenty thousand, and moving production usually means requalifying everything.
Capacity is what we sell. Capsule bottling runs 2.5 to 3 million bottles a month, powder jars 500,000 to 600,000, with blending capacity around 200,000 kg a month and a team of more than 200 people behind it. The run that stretches a small operation is a normal week here.
Texas also works as a distribution position rather than just a destination. Product that lands at a DFW or Houston 3PL goes out nationally from there, so one inbound truckload can feed a whole quarter of fulfilment.
Brands in Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Austin and San Antonio work with us for specific reasons:
Run sizes that do not need a second plant
Pilot to production on the same equipment
One inbound truckload, national outbound
An audit file chain buyers accept
Reformulation without joining a queue

Turnkey or tolling, whichever keeps the line moving
Turnkey
Tolling
You supply material, packaging, or both. A single ingredient or the whole formula. We provide the certified facility, the processing, the testing and the documentation.
Tolling suits Texas brands that already buy protein, botanicals or minerals in bulk on their own contracts. Material ships to us directly from your supplier, gets processed and tested here, and returns as finished goods, without the volume pricing you negotiated being replaced by ours.
Come see the run size before you move the line
Moving production is the part brands get wrong. The usual fix is straightforward: come and watch a batch at something close to your volume before anything is committed.
Direct service runs from the major Texas airports into Salt Lake City, and our campus is about an hour south on I-15. A single day covers most of what a scale up decision needs.
What a visit usually covers:
- Watch a commercial size blend go through mixing and into filling
- See a line changeover, since that is what governs throughput across multiple SKUs
- Walk the warehouse and see how finished goods stage before a truckload ships
- Agree case counts, pallet patterns and what a full truckload of your product looks like
Testing that scales with the run
Every finished lot is tested for heavy metals including arsenic, cadmium, mercury and lead via ICP/MS, along with total aerobic microbial count, yeast and mold, coliforms, E. coli and salmonella. The volume of the run does not change the panel. Results are recorded in a Finished Product Specification that belongs to you.
Roughly one in ten of our people work in quality only, which is what makes testing at this volume practical rather than a bottleneck. Our lab has sent thousands of shipments to ISO accredited partners, worked through Amazon’s requirements and built deep experience with Eurofins.
