When it comes to making brain supplements (also called nootropics), companies have a lot of options. Many supplement companies don’t own their own factories — in fact, that’s a very common reality in the world of supplement marketing and sales, since the high-tech facilities needed to make quality supplements are astronomically expensive. And we’ve outlined the best below, including video tours inside their facilities.
\
Most of these companies go to a brain health supplement manufacturer for white labeled or “contract” manufacturing; some bring existing formulas they want produced, while other aspiring supplement sellers are starting from scratch.
Below is a regularly-updated list of American-based companies that (mostly) provide turnkey solutions for supplement development and production, listed in alphabetical order. We’ll add new ones and remove old ones as appropriate.
