Private-label gummy launch guide for European Union

Private-label gummy launch guide for EU brands — formulation, claim wording and labelling are reviewed against the EU food-supplement framework.

Launch overview

Reviewing a gummy range for European Union

EU launches are reviewed against the relevant EU food-supplement framework before production: regulation 1169/2011 (food information), 1924/2006 (claims) and 432/2012 (authorised health claims). DAT confirms the framework relevant to the project before specification.

The EU is the right starting point for most multi-country launches. Country-specific guides cover the labelling and notification rules that diverge from the EU framework.

Market-level overviews orient the brief. Specific labelling rules, claim wording and notification scope are reviewed per project against the framework relevant to European Union.

Target-market review

European Union compliance is reviewed per project

DAT does not promise blanket compliance ahead of the brief. Final claim wording, label rules and notification scope are reviewed against the framework relevant to your target market — and confirmed inside the project workspace.

Launch formats

Formats reviewed for European Union

Format is independent from positioning. The same formula concept can move across packaging types — DAT confirms the right fit during the brief.

  1. Bottle

    Bottle gummies

    Best for classic white-label gummy launches: PET / HDPE bottle, retail-friendly, broad market fit.

    Format is confirmed per project — DAT reviews packaging, fill, outer carton and logistics against the brand brief before specification.

  2. Doypack

    Doypack gummies

    Lighter, flexible packaging for premium retail concepts and DTC ranges with smaller footprint.

    Format is confirmed per project — DAT reviews packaging, fill, outer carton and logistics against the brand brief before specification.

  3. Sachet Premium daily-use

    Sachet gummy concepts

    Routine-based, travel-friendly, premium daily-use formats. Sachet configuration is confirmed per project, including gummies per sachet, sachets per unit, film, outer packaging and logistics.

    Format is confirmed per project — DAT reviews packaging, fill, outer carton and logistics against the brand brief before specification.
