Private Label Coffee Manufacturing — India
Your Brand, Our Roast — Custom Coffee Manufacturing for Retail & Export
Custom Roast · Custom Packaging · Low MOQs · Domestic & Export Ready
Launch a Coffee Brand Without Building a Roastery
Whether you're a café chain building a retail line, an e-commerce brand entering coffee, or a HoReCa business wanting a signature blend, private label manufacturing lets you focus on your brand while we handle sourcing, roasting, packing, and quality control.
As a coffee exporter with our own sourcing network across Karnataka and other Indian growing regions, we work directly from origin, which gives private label partners access to the same bean quality we export internationally.
We support both Indian-market launches and export-ready private label programs for overseas brands.
Typical Starting Point
Figures vary by format and packaging complexity — see the MOQ table below for specifics.
Full Private Label Manufacturing Services
Custom Roast Development
We develop a roast profile to match your target flavour — light, medium, dark, or a custom blend across Arabica and Robusta — and send samples for your approval before any bulk run.
Custom Packaging & Branding
Stand-up pouches, valve bags, tins, or cartons — printed with your brand's artwork, in the format and size that fits your retail or e-commerce channel.
Grind & Format Options
Whole bean, filter grind, espresso grind, French press, or instant format — matched to how your customers actually brew.
Regulatory & Labelling Support
FSSAI-compliant labelling for the Indian market, or export-compliant labelling for your destination country, prepared as part of the manufacturing process.
From Brief to Bag — Five Steps
Brief & Sourcing
Share your target flavour, price point, and channel. We recommend a bean origin and grade to match.
Sample Roast
We roast and send 2–3 sample profiles for you to evaluate and select from, or refine further.
Packaging Design Match
Confirm pack format, size, and print your artwork on the packaging — we can advise on practical formats for your MOQ.
Trial Production Run
A small trial batch is produced to confirm quality, packaging fit, and labelling before scaling to full order size.
Full Production & Delivery
Full batch is roasted, packed, and shipped or delivered to your warehouse or fulfilment partner.

Private Label Manufacturing — Frequently Asked Questions
What is private label coffee manufacturing?
Private label manufacturing means LIT COFFEE roasts, packs, and labels coffee under your brand name rather than ours. You control the branding and customer relationship; we handle sourcing, roasting, packaging, and quality control.
What is the minimum order quantity for private label coffee?
MOQs start around 50–100 kg for standard pouch formats and scale up for custom-printed packaging or instant coffee. Exact MOQ depends on format — see the table above or contact us with your specific requirement.
Can I get a custom roast profile for my brand?
Yes — we develop and sample roast profiles based on your target flavour and price point, and you approve the profile before we move to production. This typically takes one to two rounds of sampling.
Do you provide packaging design or just printing?
We handle the printing and packaging production based on artwork you provide. If you need help with packaging design itself, we can recommend design partners we've worked with, though design is not a service we provide directly.
Can you manufacture private label coffee for export, not just the Indian market?
Yes — we produce private label coffee for both domestic Indian retail and export markets, with labelling adjusted to meet destination-country requirements. Let us know your target market when you share your brief.
Do you offer instant coffee under private label?
Yes, though instant coffee private label runs generally carry a higher MOQ (500 kg+) due to the processing setup involved. See our instant-coffee-export-guide for more on formats.
How long does a first private label order take from brief to delivery?
For a standard pouch format, expect roughly 2–3 weeks from confirmed brief to delivery, including sample approval. Custom-printed packaging or instant coffee formats take longer — see the lead time table above.
Is there a setup fee for private label packaging?
Custom-printed packaging typically involves a one-time plate or cylinder setup cost, which we itemise separately in your quote. Standard unprinted formats with a sticker label have no separate setup fee.
