US shelves are stacked with the same five skillets, and buyers compare you by price. Meiloz builds your private-label line from 500 pcs: pre-seasoned, camping and holiday collections that pass FDA food-contact testing, ship in 15-30 days by sea, and arrive with free Amazon-ready photos.
Distributors, D2C founders and Amazon sellers keep hitting the same three walls. None of them are about quality. They are about sameness, paper and timing.
Big factories sell the same public molds to hundreds of sellers. When your skillet looks like the four next to it, shoppers sort by price and you lose. Breaking out needs a mold of your own, and most foundries quote 3,000 pcs to start.
Marketplaces and retail buyers ask for FDA food-contact test reports before your line goes live. Sellers without documents lose listings, and restocking while paperwork is redone costs a whole selling season.
One-star reviews pile up around rust and food sticking. Without proper pre-seasoning, care instructions and responsive support, even a decent pan builds a bad brand page.
Custom orders start at 500 pcs per model. Mold fees are prepaid and include 2 free confirmation samples, with small molds from $150. Free laser logo for new clients, cast raised lettering if you want it in the iron itself, and any Pantone color on enameled lines. You get a shape nobody else on the aisle carries.
Every run passes FDA food-contact testing. Our factory is BSCI audited for ethical production, and cookware works on all heat sources, gas, electric, induction and open fire, and is oven-safe to 500°F (260°C). Test reports and compliance documents ship with your order so listings and retail pitches do not stall.
Pre-seasoned pans carry a durable vegetable-oil coating: non-stick out of the box and rust-resistant in normal use. Cartons include care cards, and we supply printable guides and video tutorials under your brand, plus replies within one working day when your customers have questions.
Each production order includes a free visual pack of 5-10 white-background and lifestyle photos, delivered with the goods. Upload them straight to Amazon or Shopify. For packaging we run brown box, color box or kraft gift box with hangtags, retail-ready for shelf or FBA.
