The Situation

Overcoming slow production and high costs by bringing manufacturing in-house

About the Company

NF Supplements is a health brand led by CEO Logan King. They focus on finding gaps in the supplement market and using social media trends to launch targeted products quickly.

Executive Summary

NF Supplements was struggling to grow because contract manufacturers were too slow and expensive. They couldn’t test new ideas without committing to large orders. By switching to in-house manufacturing with LFA Machines, they cut their costs by nearly 80%, reduced wait times from months to days, and grew their revenue by 50%.

NF Supplements Bring Nature And Scientific Evidence Together

The Challenges

Long lead times slowed product launches

Production Bottlenecks

Long lead times created a bottleneck that limited the company’s ability to compete. Waiting three months or more for finished products meant missed trends and slower response to market demand. This delay made it difficult to launch new products at the right time and slowed overall growth.

Large batch requirements prevented testing new ideas

Limited Flexibility

Without the ability to run small batches, the company had to commit to large production runs without knowing if a product would succeed. This limited their ability to test ideas, iterate quickly, and respond to customer demand. Innovation was constrained by the need to take on unnecessary risk.

High production costs limited profitability

Rising Costs

High contract manufacturing costs reduced margins and limited profitability. With a cost per bottle significantly higher than in-house production, scaling the business became more expensive. These costs made it harder to reinvest in new products and growth opportunities.

Slow manufacturing held back expansion

Growth Constraints

Operational limitations held the business back from scaling effectively. Slow production cycles, limited testing capability, and high costs combined to restrict expansion. Without a more flexible production model, growth remained tied to the constraints of external manufacturers.

Moving production in-house to reduce costs, speed up output, and scale faster.

Revenue Growth

Business growth delivered by faster product launches

By transitioning to in-house manufacturing, the company focused on improving speed, cost control, and flexibility across its entire production process. Using LFA Machines’ equipment and training, they built a setup capable of handling everything from blending to finished tablets and capsules.

This allowed the team to move from long, fixed production cycles to a more agile model. Production timelines were reduced from months to days, enabling faster decision-making and quicker product launches.

With the ability to run small batches, the company can now test new ideas with minimal risk. Successful products are scaled quickly, while underperforming concepts can be adjusted or stopped early.

The shift also improved cost efficiency. By reducing reliance on contract manufacturers, the company lowered its cost per bottle significantly, freeing up capital to reinvest in growth.

Overall, bringing production in-house gave the company greater control, improved responsiveness to market demand, and a stronger foundation for scaling operations.

Enabling better performance across production lines

The FACF Fully Automatic Capsule Filler from LFA Machines

"The problem with contract manufacturers was the lead time... it hurt growth because we couldn't launch quickly. By taking it in-house, we can do small batch runs and try stuff out. If it works, within 8 days we have the finished product. We haven't hired anyone with industry experience; the team just learned from the machines and the training LFA provided."
