Build RFQ ↓Factory & Manufacturing Capability
Private Label Candy Backed by a Real Shantou Production Base
Private-label development should connect the requested product to real manufacturing, packing and quality-control capability.
FUMEIDUO manufactures candy in Shantou, Guangdong, China.
The production base is documented as a 6-floor facility. Current equipment records include tablet pressing, packing, metal detection, coding and sealing equipment for applicable candy and packaging routes.
Final feasibility depends on the selected product, formula, tooling, packaging and destination-market requirements.
Customization Scope
What Can Be Discussed in a Private Label Candy Project?
Customization is reviewed by project. Final feasibility depends on the selected product, manufacturing route, packaging and target-market requirements.
Formula
Ingredient system, sweetener direction, dairy/allergen restrictions, coffee-related ingredients or other product-specific requirements can be submitted for feasibility review.
Flavor
Start from a current flavor, target profile or reference sample. Final feasibility depends on the product format and formula.
Shape & Product Format
Tablet, ring, ball or other project-specific formats can be discussed where manufacturing and tooling feasibility supports them.
Packaging
Tin, jar, pouch, box, retail pack or bulk direction should be matched to the actual product and packaging capability.
Label & Artwork
Logo, artwork, label language, ingredient/nutrition panels and printed components are reviewed against the target market and final product.
Market & Compliance Requirements
Destination market, requested documents and label rules should be identified early so they can be reviewed with the product.
RFQ Checklist
What Should You Send Before We Review a Private Label Project?
A complete product brief allows the factory to match the closest existing product and identify which areas need development.
The better the brief, the more useful the first response.
A short request such as “I need custom candy” is not enough to evaluate formula, packaging, tooling, label and commercial feasibility.
Use the checklist to create a project brief that can move directly into product review.
Send Product Brief| RFQ Item | What to Send | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Product Type | Mint / Mini / Pressed / Coffee / Milk / Crispy Candy / reference photo | Identifies the closest product family and process. |
| Target Market | Country / region and sales channel | Affects label, document and packaging review. |
| Formula Requirements | Required ingredients, restricted ingredients, sugar-free or allergen requirements | Defines technical feasibility and label path. |
| Flavor | Current flavor, target profile or reference sample | Helps product matching and development. |
| Shape / Format | Existing shape or target dimensions / reference image | May affect tooling and manufacturing feasibility. |
| Packaging | Pack type, net content, reference image | Impacts product fit, artwork, printing and MOQ logic. |
| Artwork / Label | Logo, language, front/back panel needs | Links formula and packaging to market requirements. |
| Estimated Quantity | Expected first order / forecast if available | Needed for commercial feasibility and packaging planning. |
| Required Documents | Buyer or market-specific document list | Allows document availability and scope review. |
Choose the Development Path
Existing SKU vs OEM / ODM Development
Not every project needs a new formula. Starting from an existing product can reduce development complexity when the product already fits the market.
Start from an Existing Product Reference
Choose the closest current product first, then review what needs to change for your market.
- Product formula is already known / approved internally
- Flavor and product form already exist
- Focus can move to pack, artwork, label and quantity
- Still requires current SKU and project confirmation
Develop a New OEM / ODM Specification
Use this path when the buyer wants a formula, flavor, shape, pack or label that is not already covered by a current product.
- More technical feasibility review
- May require sample rounds and tooling / package checks
- Commercial terms depend on final scope
- No blanket promise that every requested combination is feasible
Private Label Workflow
8 Steps from Product Brief to Production Approval
A clear workflow helps the buyer and manufacturer define the product before production is confirmed.
Product Brief
Buyer sends target market, product, formula, flavor, shape, packaging and quantity requirements.
Reference Product Match
Review whether an existing FUMEIDUO product can be the starting point.
Technical Feasibility
Review formula, manufacturing route, shape/tooling and packaging compatibility.
Commercial Scope
Define the project scope required before MOQ, sample and lead-time discussions can be meaningful.
Sample / Prototype Review
Prepare and review the applicable product/pack sample path based on the project.
Label & Packaging Approval
Confirm artwork, ingredient/nutrition data, printed components and target-market information.
Final Specification Approval
Lock the product, packaging and commercial specification before production.
Production & QC
Manufacture, inspect, pack, code and seal according to the approved product specification.
Formula & Flavor
Formula and Flavor Must Be Reviewed Together
Flavor requests can affect the formula, nutrition, label and manufacturing behavior. A flavor name alone is not a complete product specification.
What should be defined before formula work starts?
Start from the product category and market requirement, then identify what actually needs to change.
Shape & Tooling
Shape Development Requires Manufacturing Feasibility Review
Especially for pressed/tablet products, shape, dimensions and surface detail can affect tooling and production. Exact feasible ranges are project-specific.
Send a reference before asking for a final tooling answer.
A photo, drawing or physical reference helps the production team evaluate the desired product shape. Do not assume a shape can be reproduced exactly until tooling and product behavior are reviewed.
Packaging & Label
Packaging Is Part of the Product Specification
Packaging should be selected with the actual candy, net content, artwork, label, quantity and target sales channel in mind.
Tin / Metal Box
Metal packaging references can be reviewed for compatible retail and private-label candy projects.
Jar / Bottle
Jar or bottle-style packaging can be reviewed where it matches the selected product and packaging route.
Pouch / Bag
Pouch or bag requirements can be submitted for compatibility, printing and commercial review.
Retail Box
Boxed presentation can be reviewed for applicable retail or gifting-style candy projects.
Bulk / Wholesale Pack
Larger or bulk-pack directions can be reviewed for applicable wholesale or repacking projects.
Private Label Artwork
Logo, language, front/back panels, nutrition and printed components are reviewed with the final product.
Sample Approval
Approve the Product Before Production
Sample scope depends on the project. Product, formula, shape, packaging and printed components may require different approval steps.
What should be approved before production?
The purpose of sample review is to reduce specification gaps between buyer expectations and final production.
Commercial Logic
Why MOQ & Lead Time Are Project-Specific
MOQ and project timing depend on the selected product, formula, tooling, packaging and approval scope.
What can affect MOQ?
MOQ should be discussed after the main product and packaging choices are known.
What can affect lead time?
Lead time should be estimated only after the project scope and approval steps are understood.
Compliance & Documents
What Documents Should Be Reviewed for the Project?
Document availability, scope and validity must be checked against the current company records, product and destination market.
Product Specification
Formula, piece specification, packaging and product data should match the approved SKU/project.
Ingredient / Nutrition / Allergen Data
Use current product data to support the final packaging label.
Company / Food Safety Documents
Verify legal entity, production site, scope, issuing body and current validity.
Target-Market Review
Buyer-specific label or document requirements should be identified before final approval.
