A Streamlined Path from Formula to Finished Goods
We designed our onboarding process for brands that move quickly and can't afford surprises during qualification. Four steps. Clear timelines. One account manager throughout.
Submit Your RFQ
Share your formula specifications, target format, estimated annual volume, and timeline requirements. Our sales team reviews every submission and responds with a preliminary production assessment within 48 business hours.
- Formula spec sheet (ingredient list, fill weights, label claims)
- Preferred format: capsule, stick pack, sachet, or bulk powder
- Target batch size and annual volume estimate
- Desired timeline and any certification requirements
Formula & Compliance Review
Our QC and production team conducts a full formula review against cGMP requirements, raw material availability, and regulatory considerations. An NDA is signed before any formula data is exchanged.
- NDA executed before any formula review begins
- Raw material availability check against pre-approved supplier list
- cGMP and label claim compliance assessment
- Detailed production quote with per-unit cost breakdown
Pilot Batch & Approval
A pilot batch is produced against your approved formula spec. Full CoA, batch records, and physical samples are provided for your review and approval before full-scale production is committed.
- Pilot batch produced at minimum commercial scale
- Full Certificate of Analysis issued on pilot batch
- Physical samples shipped for your internal review
- Production sign-off required before scale-up
Full-Scale Production
Once approved, your formula enters our regular production schedule. Consistent output, real-time status updates, and on-time delivery to your 3PL or warehouse — every run, every time.
- Dedicated production line scheduling for your SKUs
- Real-time batch status updates from your account manager
- Full CoA and batch records with every shipment

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We specialize in scaling brands. Contact our team to discuss pilot runs and high-volume commercial MOQs tailored to your product format and production targets.
Do you require an NDA before reviewing our formula?
Yes. We execute a mutual NDA before any formula specifications are shared. This protects your intellectual property and ensures all discussions are fully confidential.
Do you offer formula development or reformulation services?
Riverpharm specializes in manufacturing formulas that have already been developed and finalized. We are a production partner, not a formulation lab. If your formula is finalized and you need reliable, high-volume production, we are the right fit.
How long does onboarding take for a new production partner?
Lead times vary based on formulation complexity, testing requirements, and packaging specifications. Once our team reviews your product, we provide a clear production timeline — typically within 24–48 hours of your inquiry.
Can we audit your facility before committing to production?
Yes. Qualified brands are welcome to conduct a supplier audit of our facility. We also provide a facility qualification documentation package (FDA registration, cGMP certificate, ISO certificates) under NDA upon request.
