- Do you grant rights to specified international territories?
We have a distribution/licensing agreement that does grant exclusive rights to territories. SCD Probiotics® will help our international partner to register the products for importation into the territory and to prepare for sale within the territory. SCD Probiotics® expertise in the technology and product documentation will provide a seamless registration process. We have done it many times before and with help from the local partner, will tailor the documents to meet any regulatory requirements.
- Is it possible to become a licensed producer of SCD Probiotics® products?
For territories where volume necessitates local production, SCD Probiotics® research and manufacturing partner, BioSyntropy Solutions (“B2S”), has developed a multiple step process to transfer production know-how. This includes proprietary formulations,culturing processes and quality control standards. Needless to say, potential licensees must be able to meet exacting standards for technical understanding and experience,quality, consistency, cleanliness and purity.
Once qualifications have been met, B2S’ fermentation experts will work with distributors to customize formulation and raw materials to meet local regulatory compliance, marketing preferences and availability of materials.
