Minimum Order Quantities & Services
Honest answers, a helping hand — so you can begin with clarity and confidence.
We know that for a new or growing brand, the first real question is the most practical one: "How little can I start with?" At ASLI, we'd rather give you a straight, humble answer than a sales pitch. This page lays out how we work, where we can flex, and where we genuinely can't — so you can plan without surprises.
We're a contract manufacturing partner trusted by hundreds of brands across the globe, but our founding belief is simpler than scale: *we are here to help brands grow.* Value addition comes first; volumes follow.
Our Promise: We're Here to Help, Not Just to Sell
Our founder built ASLI on a simple commitment — to add real value to every brand we touch, not merely to chase order value. That means if you come to us with an idea, we'll help you shape it. If you're unsure where to start, we'll guide you to the most sensible first step. Some of the brands we serve today began with a single product and a lot of questions, and that's perfectly welcome here.
Two Honest Ways to Begin
Pick from our existing formulation library.
You can request paid samples from our 500+ pre-validated formulations across Herbal Cosmetics, Ayurvedic Medicines & Supplements, and Nutraceuticals. It's the fastest, lowest-commitment way to evaluate quality, texture, and efficacy before you commit to production.
Share your insight and let us develop it.
If you have a concept, a hero ingredient, or a market gap in mind, share it with us. We're happy to take it on as a paid NPD (new product development) or research project. Our founder is personally committed to this kind of collaboration — bringing genuine value addition, not just turning around a quote.
A Straight Word on Sample Charges
We want to be completely transparent here, because honesty upfront saves disappointment later
Sample charges are non-refundable
Sampling and NPD take real formulation effort, materials, and time, and we price them modestly to reflect that.
In some cases, sample charges can be partially adjusted
Against a bulk order — typically when order volumes are substantial (in the region of 5,000+ units per SKU).
We'll always be clear about
What applies to your specific case before you pay.
We'd rather set this expectation plainly than imply a full refund that isn't real.
Minimum Order Quantities
We'll be honest about our limitations too. Our main constraints come from production batch economics and, in particular, from the *print and packaging supply side*, where component suppliers set their own minimums that are beyond our control.
That said, we keep our entry point as accommodating as we genuinely can:
As a general guide, we're happy to take up an order of 500 units per SKU or 50 kg — whichever is smaller.
Final MOQ depends on the formulation, pack size, packaging format, and the level of customisation. Custom packaging and printed components may carry their own higher minimums set by suppliers — we'll always tell you upfront where that's the case and help you find the most economical route.
Please note: Gummies and gelatin-based formats are not part of our offerings. All our formulations are plant-powered, Ayurveda-compliant, and free from animal derivatives.
What Affects Your MOQ (and How We Help Keep It Low)
Wherever a limitation exists, our team's job is to help you work around it sensibly — not to push you into volumes you're not ready for.
Formulation type
Choosing from our existing library carries lower minimums than ground-up custom development.
Packaging
Stock packaging unlocks our lowest entry points; custom moulds and premium boxes raise them.
Printed components
Labels, cartons, and inserts carry supplier-set minimums; we'll guide you to options that fit your scale.
Pack size
Smaller fills often mean more units within a single batch.
