Positioning first
Lock compliant 'recovery / functional wellness' positioning before launch — it shapes the label, listing, and ads.
Operational backbone
Sourcing, FDA-ready labeling, US warehousing, and fulfillment make or break the launch. We provide that backbone so you focus on demand.
Positioning note: In the US, market these as recovery / functional-wellness products (e.g., "supports liver health, hydration and next-day wellness") — not as a "hangover cure," which carries regulatory risk. This is general information, not legal advice. See our sourcing & fulfillment guide.
