The problem

Where generic warehouses fail supplement brands

A bottle of capsules is not a t-shirt. When a warehouse treats it like one, the problems show up in reviews, chargebacks and recall drills.

ERR_001

Lot numbers never captured

Stock is received by SKU only. When a manufacturer flags a batch, nobody can tell which customers got it.

ERR_002

Newest stock ships first

Pickers grab the closest case. Older lots age out on the back shelf and get written off.

ERR_003

Short-dated units to Amazon

Inventory sent in without enough remaining shelf life gets rejected or removed, and you pay for both trips.

ERR_004

Gummies melted in transit

No summer packing plan, no insulated option, no awareness that gummies, softgels and probiotics react to heat.

ERR_005

Renewal day chaos

Thousands of subscription orders drop at once and ship over a week, so customers run out before the refill arrives.

ERR_006

Damaged and recalled stock mixed in

Returns go straight back to pickable stock with no inspection, and quarantined lots are not physically separated.

Why us

The HealthShip Hub Standard

Six habits we hold every supplement account to, from the first pallet received to the last renewal shipped.

Lot-level receiving

Lot number and expiration date are recorded at receiving and tied to each location, not just to a SKU count.

FEFO by default

Pick logic releases the earliest-expiring sellable lot first, with configurable minimum shelf-life rules by channel.

Hold and quarantine

Damaged, returned or flagged stock moves to a separate hold status until it is inspected and dispositioned.

Traceable shipments

Each outbound order records the lots it contained, so a recall or customer complaint can be traced to the box.

Climate-aware packing

Seasonal packing rules for heat-sensitive formats, with insulated mailers and cold packs available when you need them.

Channel-ready stock

The same inventory can feed your store, subscriptions, Amazon prep and retail purchase orders without splitting it up.

FAQ

Supplement fulfillment questions, answered

What is supplement fulfillment?

Supplement fulfillment is the storage, picking, packing and shipping of dietary supplements and nutraceuticals, with extra controls the category needs: lot and expiration tracking, first-expired-first-out picking, sanitary storage and records that let you trace every lot to the orders it shipped in.

Do supplement warehouses need to follow FDA cGMP rules?

Yes, in part. The dietary supplement cGMP rule (21 CFR Part 111) covers holding and distributing, not just manufacturing, so warehouses that store supplements should meet its holding requirements for storage conditions, sanitation and protection against contamination. We offer FDA-registered, cGMP-aligned storage options in our markets.

What does FEFO mean and why does it matter for supplements?

FEFO means first expired, first out: the lot with the earliest expiration date ships before newer stock. It matters because supplements are dated, and shipping newer lots first leaves older inventory to expire on the shelf, which becomes a write-off.

Can you track lot numbers on every order?

Yes. We capture lot and expiration at receiving and record which lots go into each outbound order, so if a manufacturer or regulator flags a batch you can identify affected customers and quarantine remaining stock quickly.

Do you handle subscription supplement orders?

Yes. We integrate with Shopify and common subscription apps, plan renewal-day volume with you ahead of time and release renewal orders in waves so subscribers receive refills before they run out.

Can you prep supplements for Amazon FBA?

Yes. We can apply FNSKU labels, add expiration labels in the format Amazon requires, enforce minimum remaining shelf life before sending, and build compliant cartons and shipments, while keeping the rest of your stock available for other channels.

How do you ship heat-sensitive supplements like gummies and probiotics?

We set seasonal packing rules by SKU and destination. During hot months that can mean insulated mailers, cold packs, faster ship methods or holding orders over weekends so packages do not sit in a hot truck.

Do you ship supplements to retailers?

Yes. We fulfill retail and wholesale purchase orders following each retailer's routing guide, including case packs, GS1-128 carton labels, advance ship notices and EDI documents, with shelf-life minimums respected on every shipment.

Who is responsible for supplement labels and claims?

The brand is. Supplement Facts panels, structure/function claims, the required FDA disclaimer and any Prop 65 warnings are the brand's responsibility. We store and ship products as labeled and can apply labels or inserts you provide.

How much does supplement fulfillment cost?

Pricing depends on your order volume, SKU count, storage needs, packaging and any special handling such as cold packs or kitting. We provide transparent, itemized pricing and a custom quote within 24 hours of receiving your details.
