Vitalforce operates through a structured six-phase model that connects every step of brand creation. From early development to market expansion, we provide the infrastructure required to launch, operate, and scale.
Most brands treat their supply chain as a necessary inconvenience. We built ours as a competitive advantage. Every phase of the Vitalforce model connects seamlessly to the next, eliminating fragmented execution.
Every product begins with its raw materials. We source, screen, and stock the ingredient foundations for everything built through the Vitalforce ecosystem, giving your brand access to a global supply network it couldn’t build independently.
Divisions:
Global ingredient network
Our sourcing network spans Europe, the United States, China, India, and South America, covering the full range of vitamins, minerals, botanicals, amino acids, peptides, and active cosmetic ingredients. We work with qualified suppliers across each region, with direct relationships that reduce lead times and give you access to materials that standard procurement channels can’t reliably provide.
Ingredient screening & qualification
Every ingredient that enters the Vitalforce supply chain is evaluated before it goes into a formula. We assess regulatory status in target markets (EU novel food compliance, FDA GRAS or approved ingredient status), quality certification, supplier GMP standing, and available analytical documentation. You don’t inherit supplier risk, we carry it.
Regulatory pre-screening
Before any ingredient reaches formulation, we check its regulatory standing in every market you plan to sell in. EU novel food status, EFSA safety opinions, EFSA claim authorisation landscape, and US FDA ingredient classification are all assessed at the sourcing stage. This means your formulation starts from a compliant ingredient base, not a base that needs correcting later.
Stocking & inventory management
For brands running consistent production volumes, we manage ingredient stocking and safety stock planning through our Rotterdam-based warehousing infrastructure. Reliable raw material availability means your production schedule isn’t held hostage to global supply chain volatility.
Traceability & documentation
Full chain of custody documentation for every ingredient. Certificates of Analysis, supplier qualification records, and origin documentation are maintained and available on request. When a regulatory body or an auditor asks where your ingredients came from, you have the answer immediately.
Custom formulation and pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing, under one roof. Supplements, nutraceuticals, and cosmetics built to specification, at any scale, with regulatory compliance built in from the start.
Divisions:
Custom formulation
We design formulations from scratch — built around your product goals, your target consumer, and your regulatory market. Whether you’re developing a daily supplement, a functional food, a skincare serum, or a clinically-positioned nutraceutical, we build a formula that is scientifically sound, commercially viable, and ready for compliance review.
Our formulation team works across the supplement and cosmetics categories, which means a brand building a beauty-from-within product range gets formulation expertise on both the ingestible and the topical side from the same group.
Scientific validation
Efficacy literature review, stability assessment, and technical dossier preparation. Before your product reaches production, we ensure the formulation can withstand regulatory scrutiny, and market performance testing.
Regulatory alignment from day one
We build compliance into the formulation process — not onto it afterwards. EFSA-authorised health claims mapping, Novel Food compliance assessment for EU launches, EU Cosmetics Regulation safety assessment preparation for topical products, and FDA framework navigation for US-destined formulations.
Private label formulas
Looking for a proven, market-ready formula with your branding applied? We maintain a portfolio of validated private label formulas across supplement and cosmetic categories — ready to bring to market faster, with less development risk.

Divisions:
Brand strategy
We define what your brand stands for before a single visual is created. Positioning, naming, tone of voice, messaging architecture, competitive differentiation — the strategic foundation that every great brand is built on.
Visual identity
Logo, typography, colour system, imagery direction, and brand guidelines. A complete identity system built for longevity and flexibility, one that works on a label, a website, and a social feed with equal impact.
Packaging design
Design that works in the real world. Visually compelling, compliant with EU and US labelling regulations, optimised for shelf impact, and adaptable across multiple SKUs and formats. We know the regulatory constraints, and we design around them, not despite them.
Digital presence
Website design and build, D2C shop setup (Shopify, WooCommerce), social media creative systems, email design, and digital brand guidelines. We build digital presences that convert, not just look good.
Go-to-market
Launch strategy, retailer pitch decks, product photography direction, campaign creative, and social content — everything your brand needs to enter the market with confidence and land with impact.
Good manufacturing practice is not just a certification. It is built into the materials and processes used at every stage of production. Vitalforce Medicals supplies the hygiene, safety, and medical-grade equipment that makes that possible, inside our own operations, and for the professional environments our clients serve.
Divisions:
How it works inside the group
Every manufacturing process within the Vitalforce ecosystem, across supplements, nutraceuticals, and cosmetics, is conducted under the hygiene and safety standards that Medicals exists to supply. We don’t just recommend best practices. We use the protective equipment, hygiene products, and clinical consumables ourselves, across our production environments.
This is not incidental. It is a deliberate structural choice. The group that manufactures your product operates to the same standards it sells. That is what makes the ‘protection’ claim credible, and why Vitalforce Medicals is embedded in the ecosystem rather than sitting outside it.
Hygiene products
Medical-grade hygiene products for professional production and healthcare environments. Hand hygiene, surface disinfection, and contamination-control products to GMP and ISO standards.
Protective equipment
Gloves, masks, gowns, and PPE for production environments, laboratories, and clinical workplaces. Available in compliance with EU medical device and PPE regulations.
Safety products
Safety signage, spill control, and workplace safety consumables for professional environments with strict operational standards.
Clinical consumables
Diagnostic consumables, sampling equipment, and lab-grade supplies for clinical and laboratory settings.
Clinical substantiation
Claims that are scientifically credible are commercially valuable. Vitalforce Medicals prepares the clinical substantiation documentation that supports your product’s health claims, evidence dossiers aligned with EFSA standards for EU markets, and structure/function claim substantiation files for US markets. When a retailer, a platform, or a regulator asks you to justify your claims, the answer is ready.
Who we supply externally
Beyond the Vitalforce group’s internal operations, Vitalforce Medicals serves healthcare providers, clinics, laboratories, pharmacies, and professional workplaces that require reliable, compliant medical supply. Our customers operate in environments where hygiene standards are non-negotiable, and where a supplier that understands those standards is worth more than one that simply has the lowest price.
The broader positioning
The nutraceutical, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries are increasingly scrutinised on the hygiene and safety conditions under which products are made. Brands that can point to GMP-compliant, hygiene-controlled manufacturing have a trust advantage. Vitalforce Medicals is the part of the group that makes that advantage structural, not aspirational.
Our fulfillment hub is based in the Netherlands for a reason. Rotterdam is home to the largest port in Europe, with direct connections to every major EU market. From here, we manage the complete physical journey of your product.
Divisions:
Why Rotterdam
The Netherlands processes more cargo through Rotterdam port than any other location in Europe. As a gateway to the EU single market, no location offers better access, better infrastructure, or better economics for a brand looking to reach consumers across the continent.
When we say our fulfillment operation is strategically located, we mean it specifically. Rotterdam is not a convenient location — it is the best location in Europe for what we do.
What we manage
Inventory management
Real-time stock visibility, safety stock planning, and automated reorder triggers. You always know where your product is and how much you have.
Pick & pack
Accurate, branded, and efficient. B2B bulk dispatch or D2C individual parcels — we handle both to the same standard.
Multi-carrier shipping
Leading European carriers. Competitive rates and reliable delivery across 30+ markets. Same-day processing on orders received before cut-off.
EU customs
Import declarations, duty assessment, and EU customs clearance — end to end.
Returns management
Streamlined returns processing with full stock reconciliation
Platform integrations
Native connections to Shopify, WooCommerce, and Amazon Seller Central. API capability for custom platforms.
Getting your brand compliant and competitive in a new market is one of the hardest challenges in the wellness industry. We’ve built the infrastructure — and the partnerships — to make it achievable.
The compliance layer
Expanding into a new market is not an export exercise — it’s a regulatory project. Each market has its own ingredient approval framework, its own claim language, its own labelling standards, and its own registration requirements. Vitalforce manages the compliance strategy that makes expansion possible without the delays and setbacks that catch underprepared brands.
This is where the Vitalforce ecosystem’s integrated structure delivers its clearest advantage. The regulatory expertise, the formulation capability, and the production infrastructure are all under one roof — so the adjustments a new market requires can be made without starting the development process over.
Taking your US brand into Europe?
Bringing a US brand into Europe means navigating EFSA health claims, novel food regulations, the EU Cosmetics Regulation, and EU labelling requirements. Your US formulation probably needs to change. Your packaging almost certainly does. Your claims definitely do.
Vitalforce handles every one of these challenges — regulatory review, formulation adaptation, EU-compliant packaging redesign, EU manufacturing coordination, and Rotterdam-based distribution activation. From first assessment to first EU sale, under one accountable group.
Taking your EU brand into the US?
Entering the US market means navigating FDA registration, GMP expectations, DSHEA labelling compliance, and a consumer landscape that looks different from anything in Europe. Through our partnership with Vita-Pros — a US-based contract manufacturer and regulatory specialist with 10+ years of pharmaceutical-grade production — we provide the US-side capability your brand needs to launch with confidence.
Global sourcing & partnerships
Through our global network — spanning Europe, the US, China, India, Brazil, and the UAE — we give brands access to ingredient suppliers, distribution partners, and regulatory expertise they couldn’t reach independently. Expansion is faster when the connections are already in place.
The Vita-Pros partnership
Vita-Pros is our strategic US partner: a Miami-based contract manufacturer and regulatory agency with deep experience in both supplement production and FDA compliance. For European brands entering the US, Vita-Pros provides in-market manufacturing, US regulatory guidance, and distribution activation. For US brands entering Europe, they provide the briefing and documentation that makes the EU regulatory process faster and less uncertain.
