Private-label gummy launch guide for Belgium

Belgium’s supplement market operates under FPS Health (SPF Santé) oversight, with mandatory tri-lingual labelling (Dutch, French, German) and access to the Port of Antwerp as a primary EU logistics hub. For brand owners, this market demands precise regulatory alignment and packaging compliance before the first unit ships.

Private-label gummy launch — Belgium
Market snapshot

Brussels serves as both the capital and largest commercial city. Belgium’s population of 11.7 million requires supplement labelling in three national languages (Dutch, French, German), a key compliance factor for any launch. The Port of Antwerp functions as a major EU logistics gateway for supplement raw materials and finished goods. Key cities include Brussels, Antwerp, Ghent, Charleroi, and Liège.

Regulatory framework

Dietary supplements in Belgium are regulated by FPS Health (SPF Santé). The brand owner must submit a notification via the FPS Health notification path before placing products on the market. DAT supplies a documentation pack including formulation specifications, raw material certificates, and finished product specifications to support the brand owner’s filing. All regulatory compliance is reviewed per project against the Belgium framework.

Semi-custom adjusts dose, flavour or active stack within an existing matrix from 2,500 units (doypack). Custom development covers bespoke formulation and packaging from 5,000 units.

Documentation gates

The brand owner remains the food business operator and holds the notification file.
