Step 1 of 5
1
Choose your product
Ready-made or custom

Select from our ready-made formula catalogue — products already tested and proven to sell in Jamaica. Or request a custom formulation if you have a specific product in mind. Not sure what to choose? Our /start funnel guides you based on your budget, audience, and goals.

⚡ Fastest option
Ready-made products

Pick from our existing catalogue. 49+ formulas available immediately. No development time, no waiting. Best starting point for beginners.

Custom formulation
Specific requirements

We develop a formula based on your exact requirements. Takes longer but gives you a unique product your brand can own. Better for established brands expanding.

We manufacture your product
Bulk production · local · fast

⚡ Ready-made
2–3 days

Products already formulated. Manufactured in 2–3 business days after payment. Fastest path from order to selling.

Package and label your brand
This is where your brand is born

Once your bulk product is ready, you fill it into containers and apply your label. This is the step where you go from bulk formula to a brand on a shelf. You control your brand name, your packaging, and your price point entirely.

🏷️
Your brand name

Your name goes on the product. Your identity. Your business. You own the brand — we own the formula process.

📦
Your containers

Purchase 2oz bottles and 4oz jars from Najah Chemist as an optional add-on, or source them from your own supplier.

🎨
Your label design

Design your own label with your colours, logo, and brand story. Your label, your identity on every unit you sell.

Private label manufacturing means we produce what is inside the container — you own everything on the outside. This is what builds brand equity, customer loyalty, and long-term business value. Learn more about how private label manufacturing works →

Start selling
Instagram and WhatsApp first

You can begin selling as soon as your products are packaged and labelled. Most successful beginners in Jamaica start with Instagram and WhatsApp — direct, fast, and free. No website required to make your first sale.

⚡ Ready-made path
2–5 days

Order today. Receive in 2–3 days. Label and sell by day 5. The fastest path from decision to revenue.

Custom path
2–4 weeks

From order to first sale. Timeline depends on formulation complexity and how quickly you have your containers and labels ready.

If you want to start quickly, begin with ready-made products. Move into custom formulations as your brand grows and you understand exactly what your customers want. This is the strategy most successful Najah Chemist clients follow.
Step 5 of 5

Reorder and scale
The 30-day rule most beginners miss

Once your first batch sells, reinvest before you run out — not after. Running out of stock kills momentum and customer trust. Plan your reorder at 50% remaining inventory, not at zero.

Most Najah Chemist clients place their second order within 30 days after selling their first batch. Start with one product or bundle. Build demand. Add more products as your revenue grows. Successful brands in Jamaica don't start big — they start correctly and scale consistently.

Common questions

About the manufacturing process

What is the difference between ready-made and custom products?
Ready-made products are available immediately. Custom formulations take 7–21 days. Ready-made products are formulas already developed and tested by Najah Chemist — you choose from our existing catalogue and we produce your order with no development time. Custom formulations are developed to your specific requirements, which takes longer but gives you a unique product. For most beginners, ready-made is the fastest and safest starting point. See which option is right for your stage →
Can Najah Chemist supply the containers and bottles?
Yes. Containers are available as an optional add-on from Najah Chemist. We supply 2oz bottles for liquid products and 4oz jars for thick products like body butter and scrubs. You can purchase containers from us or source your own from any supplier — the formula we produce goes inside whatever container you choose. Learn more about our manufacturing process →
Do I need a label or brand name before placing my first order?
No. You can place your order before your label is finalised. Most clients receive their bulk product first, then apply their label before selling. We recommend having your label ready before your order arrives so you can start selling immediately — but it is not required before production begins. See the full step-by-step guide →
How fast can I start selling after ordering?
With ready-made products, you can start selling within 2–5 days of placing your order. Ready-made products are manufactured in 2–3 business days. Once received, label your containers and start selling on Instagram or WhatsApp immediately — no website required. Custom formulations take 7–21 days, meaning your first sale comes 2–4 weeks from order date depending on how quickly you have containers and labels ready. See what it costs to get started →
What happens after I place my order at Najah Chemist?
After payment, we begin manufacturing your product and confirm your timeline. Here is the exact sequence: 1) You place your order and complete payment. 2) We confirm receipt and provide your ready date — typically 2–3 days for ready-made, 7–21 days for custom. 3) Your order is manufactured in bulk. 4) We arrange delivery via Knutsford Express, Zipmail, or Kingston/St. Andrew hand delivery. 5) You receive your bulk product, fill your containers, apply your label, and start selling. Ready to begin? Start here →
How much does it cost to start?
You can start from as little as J$3,550 for a single product. The full range is J$3,550 to J$100,000 depending on which products you choose and what quantities you start with. Containers and labels are additional costs purchased separately. Most beginners start with a single product to test the market, then expand. See the full cost breakdown with profit estimates →
