Who we work for.
01
You are building your first product line.
We handle formulation, sourcing and production so you can focus on the brand. Even if all you have so far is the idea.
02
You have reach and want your own brand.
We build your entire brand from the product side up, fitting your community. We develop the products that suit your audience and support your marketing all the way to launch.
03
You already produce and outsource individual products.
Dedicated manufacturing services for individual SKUs, without having to touch your existing production.
Examples from our development.
We develop functional complexes by combining actives that achieve similar or complementary functions via different biochemical pathways. The resulting combinations are often novel and have not yet been offered by any established European supplement brand.

Does Arboretum Nutra develop the formula as well?
Yes. Formulation development is part of our service; as a rule, we develop the formulation ourselves. You bring the product idea, target group and positioning, and we translate them into a formulation with high-quality actives, optimised for absorption and tolerability.
Does Arboretum Nutra also work with new brands that have no prior experience?
Yes, in fact this is one of our core areas. We support young brands from the very first steps and handle the entire product-side brand build, from defining an offering that fits your target group to the documentation for your marketing. On request, we also provide organisational support, for example in choosing a fulfilment provider.
