So halfway through bringing my next product to market it looks like my relationship with my current manufacturer is starting to dry up. Response times have exceeded 7-10 days at times for answers to simple questions and some of the answers I have been getting are inconsistent with previous conversations.
Needless to say I have begun my search for a new manufacturer and have already called about 10-12 directly. I have had some great conversations and learned a lot but am still struggling...mainly because I haven't been able to touch the pricing my first manufacturer was giving.
I have posed this question to a mastermind I am in and received some responses that I am going to investigate further. But in the process of doing my due diligence I am welcome to any other suggestions, recommendations or referrals anyone may have. It never hurts to hear from people who may have a first hand experience.
If it helps, I am looking for a manufacturer that can private label serums and oils for skin and hair care. Ideally I would like to work with a US manufacturer, but Canada is an option as well. They would also have to be able to deal in lower minimum order quantities (less than 1000 units).
Thanks in advance to anyone that may have any insight here.
