Private Label Peptides: How to Launch Your Own Brand on US-Made Supply
Everything a brand needs to know about private-label peptides — MOQs, labeling, documentation, and why the manufacturer behind the label matters more than the label.
What private label actually means here
Private label means Star Distribution manufactures the product and you sell it under your name: your label, your branding, your customer relationship. Every SKU in our catalog is available lyophilized under your own label, filled and lyophilized in certified US cleanrooms and released at 99%+ purity. You never touch raw material, a filling line, or a lyophilizer — you focus on the brand.
Minimums, timelines, and what to expect
- MOQ: standard private-label minimum is 3,000 vials per SKU, and we are flexible on a first order so you can launch without over-committing.
- Lead time: one to two weeks from confirmed PO once artwork is approved, the same as unlabeled product.
- Pricing: tiered private-label pricing is quoted directly rather than published; wholesale-list pricing shows in the Partner Portal once your account is set up.
- Payment: first orders prepaid, Net 30 on approved accounts, ACH or wire — nothing is charged through the website.
Why the manufacturer behind the label matters more than the label
Most private-label peptide brands fail on the same thing: a supplier who relabels overseas product and can't answer basic sourcing questions when a customer asks. Your brand is only as defensible as the supply behind it. Star Distribution gives you API sourced from green-list registered manufacturers and tested on every shipment, domestic cGMP manufacturing, certified cleanroom manufacturing, and pre-order samples pulled from the lot that will actually ship — so you can verify before your name goes on it.
How to start a private-label line
- Create a Partner Portal account (choose Research brand / e-commerce).
- Submit a purchase order or request for the compounds you want to launch — tick "Private label / white label" as the channel.
- We confirm availability, pricing, and artwork requirements by email; you approve artwork.
- Product ships with your labeling applied at the source.
