Questions brands ask.
Which is better for a new skincare brand?
For most new skincare, body care, haircare and deodorant brands, Cosmetic Makers is the closer fit: you can start from one of 3,000+ stock formulas, and formulation, production, testing and fulfillment happen in one building, tracked in software you can see.
When is Medpak Solutions the better choice?
Medpak Solutions fits brands that need USDA Organic certified production or an ISO 22716 listed plant, and it quotes 6 to 8 weeks for production at the same 5,000 unit minimum.
Do both companies offer fulfillment?
Cosmetic Makers runs a 50,000 sq ft fulfillment warehouse in the same facility, connected to TikTok Shop and Amazon, with same-day shipping for orders in by 2pm EST. Medpak Solutions' FAQ says it does not offer 3PL or fulfillment services and ships orders F.O.B. from its St. Petersburg factory.
