Low MOQ Perfume Manufacturer

Launch your fragrance brand from just 500 units. Full-service perfume manufacturing for startups, limited editions, and small-batch production — without compromising on quality.

The Problem with High MOQs

Most fragrance manufacturers require minimum orders of 3,000 to 5,000 units or more. For a startup brand, an independent perfumer, or a business testing a new fragrance concept, that level of commitment is often prohibitive — both financially and in terms of inventory risk.

High MOQs shut out emerging brands, prevent established companies from testing new ideas at low risk, and make limited-edition releases impractical. The result is that many excellent fragrance concepts never reach the market.

KeepMe was built to solve this problem.

Scale When You're Ready

Starting small does not mean staying small. Our manufacturing process is designed to scale seamlessly as your brand grows. When demand increases, we transition your production to larger volumes without any change to your formulation, componentry, or quality standards.

Many of our most successful brand partnerships began with an initial run of 500 to 1,000 units. As those brands grew, we scaled alongside them — handling increased volumes, introducing new SKUs, and expanding into new product formats.

Your dedicated account manager will work with you to plan your growth trajectory, ensuring that components are available, lead times are managed, and your production schedule aligns with your commercial goals.

Low MOQ Manufacturing FAQs

What is the minimum order quantity?

Our minimum order quantity starts from 500 units when using stock components — including stock bottles, stock pumps, stock caps, and stock or pre-developed fragrances. This makes it accessible for startups, limited editions, and market-testing purposes. For bespoke componentry, MOQs may be higher depending on the specification.

What does it cost per unit at 500 units?

Unit costs at 500 depend on your specific requirements, including fragrance type, bottle size, componentry selection, and decoration. While per-unit costs are higher at lower volumes compared to large production runs, our stock component options help keep pricing accessible. Contact us for a tailored quotation based on your brief.

How do I get started?

Getting started is straightforward. Contact our team with your project brief — including your brand concept, target market, and any fragrance preferences. We will arrange a consultation to discuss your requirements, recommend a suitable approach, and provide a quotation. From there, we guide you through formulation, componentry selection, and production.

Can I use bespoke components at low MOQs?

At 500 units, we recommend using stock components from our existing range, which includes over 100 bottle moulds, a wide selection of pumps and caps, and standard packaging. Fully bespoke componentry — such as custom glass moulds — typically requires higher MOQs (usually 3,000+). However, you can still create a distinctive product through decoration, labelling, and secondary packaging at lower quantities.

What are the lead times for small batches?

Small batch orders using stock components and stock fragrances can typically be fulfilled in 8 to 12 weeks. If you require a bespoke fragrance formulation or custom decoration, lead times extend to approximately 12 to 16 weeks depending on complexity. We provide a detailed timeline at the start of every project.

Can I scale up later?

Absolutely. Our manufacturing process is designed to scale seamlessly. Many of our clients start with a 500-unit run to test the market, then move to larger production volumes as demand grows. Your fragrance formulation, componentry specifications, and quality standards remain consistent as you scale — so your product is identical whether you order 500 or 50,000 units.
