Contract Manufacturing • Guidance Launching your first tincture, glycerite, or liquid extract line? Griffo Botanicals works alongside first-time brands and practitioners, from an early concept through a finished, production-ready formula. “We spend as much time explaining the process as we do running the formula, most first orders start with a question, not a spec sheet.” No. Griffo Botanicals works with brands at any stage, from a clinical intention or product concept through to a fully specified, production-ready formula. Acupuncturists, herbal practitioners, and wellness brands running their first production cycle, who want a manufacturing partner that explains each step rather than assuming prior experience with contract manufacturing. A first production run has a real sequence, each step depends on the one before it. We talk through your product concept, target audience, and any clinical or wellness intention behind the formula. Our team helps select herbs, set solvent ratios (alcohol, glycerin, or a blend), and determine target concentrations. We explain minimum order quantities, packaging options, timelines, and what to expect at each stage of production, in plain terms, before you commit. Guidance on bottle size, glass or plastic finish, closures, and case packaging suited to your launch volume. We stay available through the run itself, answering questions as they come up rather than handing off a purchase order and going quiet. Does Griffo Botanicals help first-time brands develop a formula? Yes. We provide hands-on formulation support, guiding herb selection, solvent ratios, and target concentrations before the first production run. Do I need a finished formula to start? No. We work with brands at any stage, from a concept through to a fully specified formula. What does first-time production guidance include? Formula development, a walkthrough of manufacturing requirements and timelines, packaging and labeling guidance, and ongoing support through the first run. What are the minimum order and turnaround for a tincture run? 500 units or 30 liters per SKU, with an average 8-week turnaround.
