WHO WE ARE

We Do the Research
So You Can Move Fast.

US Brand Launch is a specialist US market entry intelligence platform for health, beauty, and wellness brands expanding in the US market. We combine regulatory expertise, AI, and hands-on industry knowledge into a single US Launch Report that tells you exactly what to do — and in what order.

US Brand Launch was created by professionals who have helped health and wellness brands navigate distribution, compliance, and US market entry.

THE PROBLEM WE SOLVE

US Market Entry Fails Because Brands Go In Blind

A health brand decides to enter the US market. They spend six months and $80,000 preparing — reformulating products, printing new packaging, building retail relationships. Then they discover their core health claims aren't FDA-compliant and their Supplement Facts panel is wrong. The whole launch stalls.

This isn't a rare story. It's the default outcome when brands try to piece together US market intelligence from fragments: a consultant here, an FDA summary there, a Google search for "how to sell supplements in the US."

The problem isn't ambition. It's that the information needed to launch successfully in the US — FDA/FTC requirements, US retailer & distributor contacts, US logistics providers, duty rates, US consumer behaviour, competitor positioning — is scattered across dozens of sources, most of which don't talk to each other.

💸
Failed US launches cost $50K–$500K

The typical cost of a botched US market entry — FDA compliance rework, packaging reprints, unsellable inventory, and months of wasted preparation.

🕰️
12–18 months of fragmented research

How long most brands spend piecing together US market information they need — an FDA consultant here, a US logistics broker there, an Amazon agency on the side.

🇺🇸
the USA — the world's largest health market

The US has its own regulator (FDA/FTC), label format (Supplement Facts panel), duty rate, 3PL ecosystem, and retail landscape. There's no shortcut to getting it right.

WHAT WE DO

One US Launch Report. Everything You Need to Launch.

We produce US Launch Intelligence Reports — a 13-chapter intelligence package covering every dimension of launching your health, beauty, or wellness brand into a new international market.

⚖️
Regulatory & Compliance

Full breakdown of what your product category requires in the target market — registration, notification, prohibited ingredients, health claim rules, labelling format — from the specific regulatory body that enforces it.

🛡️
AI Label Screening

Upload your current label and our AI vision model screens it against a structured checklist of market-specific requirements. It identifies potential issues for further review, with a preliminary risk score and fix recommendations.

📦
3PL & Logistics

Named 3PL providers vetted for your market, import duty rates, incoterm recommendation, customs broker names, ocean and air freight timelines, and a full landed cost model for your category.

🏪
Amazon & Marketplace Playbook

Category-specific launch strategy for the dominant marketplace in your target market — keyword research, competitor teardown, BSR targets, PPC launch budget, and A+ content brief.

🤝
Retailer & Distributor Buyer Contacts

Named buyer contacts for brick & mortar retailers, online retailers, and distributors in your specific category and market — submission guidelines, sell-in windows, margin benchmarks, and a pre-vetted distributor shortlist.

📱
Influencer & Paid Media

Platform-specific influencer strategy (creators, tiers, rates, compliance), plus a paid media plan for Meta, TikTok, and Google Ads calibrated for your market and category.

🤝
Local Partner Network

Pre-vetted regulatory consultants, performance agencies, contract manufacturers (CDMOs), and distributors for your specific market — with RFQ templates, evaluation scorecards, and a sequenced partner engagement plan.

🗺️
90-Day Launch Roadmap

A week-by-week action sequence from compliance through 3PL setup, Amazon listing, influencer seeding, paid media launch, and retail outreach — built for your specific category and market.

📊
Competitor Intelligence

The top 10 brands in your category in the target market: pricing, positioning, review sentiment, claim strategy, and the gaps they've left open for you to exploit.

💰
Revenue & Pricing Model

Data-backed 12-month revenue projections, local pricing benchmarks, margin modelling at DTC and retail, and a break-even analysis specific to your product and market.

THE OUTCOME

Not just research.
The roadmap to succeed and expand your international sales.

The 32 chapters aren't individual Blueprints — they're a complete, sequenced expansion system. By the time your US Launch Report lands, you have everything needed to brief every partner, file every registration, and close your first international sale.

🗺️

A literal roadmap

Week-by-week tasks from compliance through retail outreach — sequenced by dependency, assigned by role. Not a recommendation. An operational plan your team can execute the day it arrives.

🤝

Named contacts, not categories

60+ verified retailer buyers and distributors for your specific category and market. Not 'contact major retailers.' The actual buyer names, submission windows, and margin expectations.

📈

Built to generate sales

Every module — pricing strategy, regulatory, 3PL, Amazon, influencer, paid media — is calibrated around one outcome: your first international sale. Covers your full product range, not a single SKU.

Fit check

Is US Brand Launch right for you?

A few questions we get asked a lot — answered honestly.

Great fit if you…
  • Are a health, beauty, or wellness brand considering entering a new country
  • Need to move fast — weeks, not months — on a market entry decision
  • Want research-grade data without the research-firm price tag
  • Are pre-launch and want to validate a market before committing spend
  • Need verified retailer and distributor contacts for a specific category
Less suited if you…
  • Operate outside health, beauty, or wellness (pharma, medical devices, etc.)
  • Need deeply customised bespoke strategy with ongoing consulting support
  • Are already a dominant player in a market and need competitive intelligence at enterprise scale
Yes — often more so. Pre-revenue brands benefit most from understanding demand sizing, regulatory requirements, and competitive positioning before they've sunk capital into labelling, compliance, or inventory. The US Launch Report is designed to be a decision-making tool, not a validation exercise for something already decided.
Absolutely. Many of our customers are established in the UK or US and use the US Launch Report to assess their second or third market — whether that's a new US product line, channel, or category. The report benchmarks your existing position against what competitors are doing in the US market, so you're not going in blind.
Market intelligence, competitor pricing, and regulatory data are generated fresh at the time of your report — not pulled from a static database. Search volume trends, retailer listings, and consumer demand signals are updated continuously. Regulatory frameworks are verified at point of generation and flagged if a known update is pending.
