When gummies are the right format
Gummies fit ranges that need broad consumer appeal, a familiar daily ritual, and a packaging story that reads on shelf and online. Below are the launch shapes we see most often.
- DTC supplement brands launching a flagship daily-use SKU.
- Established ranges adding a gummy line to extend an existing wellness story.
- Retail private-label programmes building house lines for the pharmacy or grocery channel.
- Beauty-from-within and sports brands extending into ingestible formats.
Pick the route that matches the brief.
Every project moves through one of three routes. Final routing is confirmed inside the portal — the route shapes the documentation set and the timeline.
Reviewed concept, brand artwork.
Pick a reviewed pectin-gummy concept from the catalogue and adapt brand artwork. The fastest path from brief to launch — packaging, claims and documentation are reviewed against the target market.

- First gummy SKU · short timelines
- Lead time
- Confirmed in the quote
Adjusted within an existing matrix.
Adjust dose, flavour or active stack within an existing matrix. Differentiate the SKU without a full custom-development cycle. Documentation route follows the same project gates.

- Differentiated SKU · existing brand
- Lead time
- Confirmed in the quote
Bespoke formulation and dieline.
Fully bespoke formulation, custom flavour profile and packaging dieline. The right route for category-defining launches with longer planning windows and committed quantities.

PET bottle · Doypack · Sachet
Format is independent from positioning. The same formula concept can move across packaging types — DAT confirms the right fit during the brief.
- PET bottle
Canonical supplement-shelf format. Suits 30/60-day daily-use ranges with a clear nutrition table.
- Doypack
Stand-up pouch with resealable zip. Strong DTC unboxing and lower secondary-packaging footprint.
- Sachet
Single-serve daily ritual or travel SKU. Sachet configuration (gummies per sachet, film, outer) is confirmed per project.
Project gates, not promises
DAT releases documentation as the project moves through each gate. Batch-release documents are issued after production and QC release.

Frequently asked questions
What base do DAT gummies use?
Pectin. The platform is pectin-first across PET bottle, doypack and sachet formats. Gelatin is out of scope.
Which formats can the same gummy concept ship in?
A reviewed gummy concept can move across PET bottle, doypack or sachet packaging. DAT confirms the right fit during the brief.
How are projects routed?
White-label adapts a reviewed concept and brand artwork. Semi-custom adjusts dose, flavour or active stack within an existing matrix. Custom development covers bespoke formulation and packaging.
What documentation does DAT release at each project stage?
Four gates: brief review, spec confirmation, artwork review per the target-market framework, and batch-specific Certificate of Analysis after QC release. The brand owner remains the food business operator on pack.
Can DAT support multi-market EU + UK + US launches?
Yes — every project is reviewed against the target-market framework (EU FIC, UK FSA, US DSHEA) so the same formulation can move across pathways with the right documentation pack.
What is the order of magnitude for a first gummy run?
White-label projects start from 1,000 units (PET bottle). Semi-custom starts from 2,500 units (doypack). Custom development starts from 5,000 units. Final volumes are confirmed in the quote.
