Nutraceuticals, ayurveda and supplements
You are held to a pharmacy's standard of proof and a supermarket's speed of trade — with a licence regime that belongs to neither.
The things we hear most in this trade.
- “Our herb and extract inputs vary batch to batch, and the finished potency varies with them.
- “Buyers and exporters want a certificate with every consignment; we make them by hand.
- “Shelf life is short, distribution is deep, and returns come back close to expiry.
- “One product sells as a 30-count bottle, a 60-count jar and a 10-sachet strip, and each carries a different price and sometimes a different tax.
- “Our licence limits who we can sell to and what we can claim, and that sits in someone's head.
Capability, and the outcome it buys you.
Incoming inspection on every lot of herb, extract or excipient, with supplier-specific limits pre-filled and provenance recorded
variable natural inputs are measured before they enter a batch, not after a complaint.
Quality parameters with exact decimal maths, critical/major/minor severity, and formula parameters computed from other results
potency and moisture decide pass or fail by rule, not by rounding.
A tamper-evident Certificate of Analysis per approved inspection, numbered per financial year, fingerprinted and version-chained, reissued only with a stated reason
every consignment ships with proof a buyer or an overseas regulator can verify.
Certificates generated in bulk for a shipment and merged into a single document
an export consignment's paperwork is one action.
Expiry computed from manufacturing date and shelf life, with near-expiry thresholds you set per product family, and picking that ships the soonest-expiring stock first
short-life stock moves before it becomes a return.
Batches carrying storage conditions, certificate numbers, country of origin and the supplier's own lot number
a raw-material recall is one search across every warehouse.
Stability studies scheduled at fixed checkpoints with due and overdue tracking
shelf-life claims are substantiated on a schedule, not remembered.
One product with many packs — bottle, jar, sachet strip, carton — each with its own barcode, retail price and rates, and different pack sizes able to carry different tax classifications
the shelf and the tax return agree.
Retail price, price to retailer and price to stockist as validated fields, with discounts expressed as a percentage off retail price
the distribution chain prices the way the trade talks.
Restricted products sold only to licensed customer groups, with a report of every restricted item and who may buy it
licence conditions are enforced by the system, not by memory.
Control points on manufacturing steps with temperature or humidity limits and operator sign-off
the food-safety record exists when the auditor asks.
A turmeric extract arrives from a new supplier. Incoming inspection reads curcuminoid content against limits agreed with that supplier; it passes at 95.2 against a 95.0 floor, and the accepted values are written to the batch. The batch is made into 30-count bottles and 10-sachet strips, each with its own barcode and retail price. Every consignment leaves with a fingerprinted certificate. Nine months on, a stability checkpoint falls due and appears on the overdue list before anyone has to remember it.
