Artwork runs in German / French / Italian
Label artwork, on-pack copy and retail packaging for Switzerland are written in German / French / Italian. Plan translation and claims review alongside sampling so production is not waiting on artwork.
DAT Supply
Switzerland Export Project: Gummy manufacturer
Private-label pectin gummy manufacturing through DAT Supply, from catalogue formula to released batch. Outside the EU, the UK and the US, supply for Swiss brands is handled as an Export Project, scoped with you case by case.
Choosing a manufacturing partner
How to choose a manufacturing partner for Swiss brands — a reviewed catalogue, documentation by stage, and one structured order workflow.
DAT Supply supplies private-label food supplements for Swiss brands across multiple formats.
How to choose
What to check before you choose a manufacturing partner for Swiss brands
Three things matter most: a reviewed formula base, a documented specification process, and clear claim wording for the market you sell in — before a sample is ever produced.
Reviewed formula base
A private-label catalogue option that has already been through formulation review, rather than a formula built from zero for every enquiry.
Documentation discipline
Specification, label and batch documents released at defined project stages — not bundled into a single opaque handoff at the end.
Claim wording review
On-pack copy and claim wording reviewed against the framework that applies for Swiss brands, before artwork is locked.
Sourcing considerations
Local vs. EU / international manufacturing
Brands for Swiss brands typically weigh a local co-packer against an EU-wide or international manufacturing platform. Neither is right by default — it depends on volume, format range and how many markets the brand plans to enter.
Local sourcing
Can suit a single-market launch with a narrow format range and simple logistics — but often means starting from scratch when the brand adds a second market or a second format.
A multi-format platform
One structured order workflow across formats and markets, with documentation reviewed per project against the rules of each market you sell in — useful once a brand plans to sell beyond a single market.
DAT capabilities
What DAT Supply provides
A single contracting party for the full private-label build: formula, specification, samples, documentation and production, managed through one client workspace.
Multi-format platform
Gummies, sachets, functional jellies, oral strips and pet soft chews run through the same order flow, so a formula can move between formats without starting over.
Project-managed production
Each project moves through defined review steps — product, specification, artwork, release — inside one client workspace, not a vendor inbox.
Available formats
Gummies — and the formats around it
You choose the format. The same formula can move between packaging types without starting over.

Format
What gummy manufacturer production involves
- Base
- PectinDAT Supply gummies are pectin-based across PET bottle, doypack and sachet formats — gelatin is not offered as a gummy base.
- Set and cure
- Deposited into moulds, then cured to set moisture and textureWater activity and pectin grade are what tune the bite from a softer candy mouthfeel to a firmer supplement bite.
- Finish
- Coated or uncoatedSugar-sanding, oil polish and sour-coating are formula-specification decisions, judged on physical samples before production.
Gummy production prepares the gelling system and doses the active stack into it against the reviewed specification, deposits the slurry into moulds, and cures it to the target moisture and texture. The cured piece is then finished — coated or left uncoated — and filled into the agreed pack. Depositing and curing are what fix shape, unit weight and bite, which is why they sit inside the specification rather than a later adjustment.
Export Project
Switzerland is an Export Project
Outside the EU, the UK and the US, the standard Private Label price, minimum order and online order do not apply.
How it works
Scoped with you, case by case
Standard Private Label covers the EU, the UK and the US. Delivery anywhere else is handled as an Export Project, from the applicable export minimum: once commercial fit is confirmed, DAT Supply scopes the market-specific documentation, compliance, freight and payment with you, and third-party, government, legalisation and testing costs are passed through where applicable.
- Gummies
- 5,000 finished retail units in total per formula, across approved flavoursSubject to the normal production minimum for each production variation.
Samples & packaging
Confirm before the full run
Ready Samples, or a Personalization Sample where the product offers one, let you confirm taste, texture and format before committing to a full order.
Packaging options include PET bottle, doypack and sachet, with pack configuration confirmed per order. Samples are ordered inside your DAT Supply account, ahead of the full production run.

Market-specific considerations
Working for Swiss brands
Market snapshot
Switzerland is a market of approximately 8,800,000 people, with Bern as the administrative capital and Zürich as the largest commercial city. Key commercial cities include Zürich, Geneva, Bern, Basel, Lausanne. Label artwork and on-pack copy are typically produced in German / French / Italian. Requirements are reviewed for the target market before production. The brand owner remains responsible for local notification or registration where required.
Regulatory framework
Dietary supplements in Switzerland are regulated as a category of food. Requirements are reviewed for the target market before production. The brand owner remains responsible for local notification or registration where required. Importer, responsible-party and customs responsibilities are confirmed for the applicable order and destination. DAT supplies the documentation pack; filings are DAT's only where the agreed scope includes them. Label language and claim wording are confirmed during project review before the brief is finalised.

Buyer & channel
Choosing the lead channel for Swiss gummy packs
A brand owner for Swiss brands usually shapes the gummy pack around where it sells first. Grocery, pharmacy, drugstore and a direct-to-consumer channel all sit in the Swiss mix, and the choice of lead channel is what shapes pack format and unit economics — a decision the brand owner makes before the count and price ladder are locked. Because the working language is German, French and Italian, artwork is authored tri-lingually from the outset rather than retrofitted per channel. The cert panel a Swiss buyer commonly sees — Bio Suisse / Knospe, V-Label — is settled before the gummy format is fixed, since each mark carries its own sourcing and supply implications that are easier to plan into the pack than to add later.
Launch steps
Running a launch
Running the gummy lane for Swiss brands starts with language: German, French and Italian are all working languages, so pack and carton artwork is authored tri-lingually from the first proof rather than translated after the format is set. Switzerland sits in the EFTA / non-EU region, outside the EU and EEA, so the country runs a separate CH framework rather than the EU notification route. Requirements are reviewed for the target market before production. The brand owner remains responsible for local notification or registration where required.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions — Gummy manufacturer for Swiss brands
Which authority notifies a gummy product for Swiss brands?
Because Switzerland sits in the EFTA / non-EU region, outside the EU and EEA, it runs a separate CH framework rather than the EU notification route.
What language does gummy pack artwork need for Swiss brands?
Switzerland's working languages are German, French and Italian, so gummy pack and carton artwork is authored tri-lingually. Tri-lingual artwork is required, which is why a Swiss brand owner plans all three languages into the pack from the outset rather than adding them after the gummy format is locked.

FAQ
Gummy manufacturer questions for Swiss brands
What is the gummy production sequence, in order?
The gelling system and active stack are prepared as a slurry, deposited into moulds to set, then cured to the target moisture and finished — coated (sugar-sanding, oil polish, sour-coating) or left uncoated — before filling and batch release. Shape, unit weight and finish are properties of the mould and the specification, confirmed before the batch runs, not changed afterward.
How does a gummy differ from a jelly stick on the same platform?
A gummy is deposited into a mould and cured to a firmer, chewed piece that can carry a coated finish; a jelly stick is dosed hot into a squeeze-stick film and stays soft and spoonable, eaten in one tear rather than chewed. The gummy paces a dose across several pieces, where the jelly stick delivers the full serving in one go — which format fits is a product decision the brief review confirms.
What is the minimum order quantity for Swiss brands?
Deliveries outside the EU, the UK and the USA are Export Projects, which start from 5,000 finished retail units in total per formula, across approved flavours, subject to the normal production minimum for each production variation. Export Project pricing, documentation and freight are scoped with you once the project meets it.
Can I order samples before committing?
Yes. Order Ready Samples of catalogue products, or a Personalization Sample in your chosen flavour, colour or shape where the product offers one, to confirm taste, texture and format before you start a full order. Finished packaging is chosen on the order.
How are claims handled for Swiss brands?
Claim wording reviewed against EU 1924/2006 and 432/2012 before production.
How is documentation released?
By project stage — specification and label first, then batch release and traceability documents with your batch. A Certificate of Analysis or independent lab testing is available on request.
