Private Label, OEM & ODM Stainless Steel Cookware
Private label cookware means your brand on a range built to your specification. OEM follows your design; ODM adapts a factory's existing design. Each has a different tooling cost, lead time and minimum order quantity.
We develop cookware programmes for retailers, supermarkets and e-commerce brands: we specify construction, identify and qualify factories, manage sampling and branding, and inspect before export.

Inspection follows our five checkpoints — factory audit, pre-production, during production, pre-shipment and loading — against the sealed golden sample. See quality control in India.
Minimums, sampling & private label
ODM ranges allow lower minimums than OEM. New body shapes or clad constructions need tooling and higher volumes.
Every programme can be produced under your own brand, with your labels and packaging. Read about private label manufacturing in India.

Buyer questions
What is the difference between OEM and ODM cookware?
OEM is made to your design. ODM uses the factory's existing design adapted with your branding and details. ODM is faster and needs less tooling.
Who owns the tooling?
We agree tooling and design ownership in writing before tooling is paid for.
Can you make tri-ply cookware in India?
Yes, fully clad cookware is made in India. We confirm the layer construction on a sectioned sample before bulk production.
