About BDP
Your packaging, sourced and shipped.
BDP is a wholesale cosmetic packaging supplier. We connect South African brands with reliable manufacturing and handle the sourcing, so you can get on with the product itself.

Founder story
We built the supplier we couldn't find.
TODO: replace the founder story paragraphs in src/config/contact.ts. The block below shows placeholder copy.
TODO — write the founder story in your own words. What were you formulating? What did every supplier say when you asked for a small run? Why did you decide to build BDP?
TODO — paragraph two: what changed once you started sourcing directly. What did it unlock for the brands you now supply?
TODO — paragraph three: the standard you now hold every shipment to, and what you'll never compromise on.
Why we exist
Because "1,000 units minimum" kills small brands before they start.
The default across cosmetic packaging is a 1,000 unit MOQ per SKU. For a brand testing a new formula, that's a five figure bet on a product nobody has bought yet. Most founders bail there. The good product never gets made.
We start at 10. That's not a stunt. It's the whole business. You test what sells, keep the wins, drop the losses, then scale into printed customisation when the sales tell you to.
Everything else follows from that: transparent tiered pricing, no application form for wholesale, and a supplier who's still there at 2,500 units and 25,000.
What we do
Sourcing
We buy glass and plastic packaging straight from manufacturers we've vetted, so you get factory pricing without having to manage overseas procurement yourself.
Customisation
Silk-screen printing, hot stamping and colour matching, available from 2,500 units. Put your logo on the bottle so it reads as your product, not a generic one.
Delivery
We ship to South Africa, the UK, USA, EU and Australia, and handle the freight so your order turns up safely and on time.
Why work with us
Checked before it ships.
We vet every supplier for production quality and consistency, request samples, and run checks before a shipment leaves the factory.
First collection or your fifth, the standard stays the same.
Clear pricing, low minimums.
Pricing tiers are shown up front. No hidden fees, no surprise quotes. Minimums start from just 10 units, so independent brands can afford good packaging too.
As you order more, your price drops automatically.
