OEM manufacturing of sauces, dipping sauces or seasoning powders with Pure Foods takes place in 2 phases. Recipe development takes 7\u201314 days per revision, and the first production lot takes about 30\u201360 days after the purchase order is received: about 30 days if no imported ingredients are needed, or about 60 days if imported ingredients such as certain flavorings are required. Rush orders can be completed in as little as 25 days after the purchase order is received.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the steps in an OEM production order, and how long do they take?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Step<\/th>What happens<\/th>Estimated time<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
1. Discuss details<\/td>Share the product type, desired flavor, packaging and order quantity<\/td>Depends on how complete your information is<\/td><\/tr>
2. Develop the recipe and send samples<\/td>The R&D team develops the recipe and sends 100\u2013500 g samples for tasting each round<\/td>7\u201314 days per revision<\/td><\/tr>
3. Revise until satisfied<\/td>Recipe development fee of 20,000 THB per recipe, covering 3\u20135 revisions<\/td>Number of rounds \u00d7 7\u201314 days<\/td><\/tr>
4. Label, Thai FDA registration, barcode<\/td>Handled by the factory at no charge<\/td>Done in parallel with other steps<\/td><\/tr>
5. Issue a purchase order (PO)<\/td>Confirm the recipe, packaging and quantity according to the MOQ<\/td>\u2014<\/td><\/tr>
6. Produce and deliver the first lot<\/td>Production, quality inspection, packing<\/td>30\u201360 days after PO (rush: 25 days)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The 20,000 THB recipe development fee is returned as 20,000 THB worth of products on the first purchase order. This applies to all production lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why do some first lots take 30 days and others 60 days?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The main factor is raw materials. If the recipe uses ingredients the factory already has, production takes about 30 days. If it requires specific imported ingredients, such as certain flavorings, the factory must wait for them to arrive, so it takes about 60 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other factors that can slow things down include multiple recipe revisions, label design changes after approval, or choosing custom packaging that must be ordered from a new supplier. Small sachets require waiting for packaging film, which has a minimum order of 10 rolls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you need to open a shop or launch on a specific date, how much time should you allow?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Count back from the date you need the product, then add recipe development time and production time together. Examples<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scenario<\/th>Estimated total time<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Existing recipe, 1 revision, no imported ingredients<\/td>7\u201314 days + 30 days = about 5\u20136 weeks<\/td><\/tr>
New recipe, 3 revisions, no imported ingredients<\/td>21\u201342 days + 30 days = about 7\u201310 weeks<\/td><\/tr>
New recipe, 3 revisions, with imported ingredients<\/td>21\u201342 days + 60 days = about 12\u201315 weeks<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The figures in the table are calculated from the time frame of each step. Actual timing depends on how quickly the recipe and label are approved. If you have a fixed product launch date, let us know from the first day of discussion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the fastest turnaround for a rush order?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As fast as 25 days after the purchase order is received, for orders where the recipe is already approved and the raw materials are ready. The recipe development phase still takes time depending on the number of revisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can you get the job done faster?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
