United Laboratories

What United Laboratories does

United Laboratories Pvt. Ltd. is an Indian B2B contract manufacturer of nutraceuticals, ayurvedic formulations, and derma cosmetics, founded in 2015 by Mr. Munish Goel and headquartered in Derabassi, Punjab. The company operates three WHO-GMP-certified manufacturing units — two in Derabassi and one in Birgunj, Nepal via its wholly-owned subsidiary United Laboratories Nepal Pvt. Ltd. — producing tablets, capsules, softgels, syrups, powders, injections, ointments, and gummies across 500+ SKUs covering therapeutic categories such as antidiabetic, anti-obesity, cardiology, neurology, andrology, hepatology, and gynaecology, plus health supplements (multivitamins, omega-3, collagen peptides, probiotics) and ayurvedic and derma cosmetic lines. Manufacturing is supported by in-house R&D for custom formulations, multi-jurisdiction certifications (WHO GMP, ISO 9001, ISO 22000:2018, HACCP, KOSHER, HALAL, FSSAI, DCGI, AYUSH, and FDA-compliant cosmetics), and roughly 350+ employees.

The business model is primarily contract manufacturing on a B2B basis: clients — including healthcare brands, cosmetic entrepreneurs, nutraceutical companies, and wellness businesses (1,500+ cumulative clients) — source third-party manufacturing or private-label services with flexible MOQs (e.g., 3,000-10,000 units depending on dosage form), custom formulations, and branded packaging from United Laboratories. Pricing is quote-based and varies by product complexity, volume, and packaging. Revenue is generated through manufacturing fees and export sales: the company operates direct sales offices in London (UK) and Kampala (Uganda) and exports to 13+ countries including the USA, Germany, South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Bangladesh, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, and the Philippines. The company's GTM motion combines third-party manufacturing channel partnerships for domestic clients with direct-to-consumer / export trade for international markets, supported by an owned website (unitedlabs.in), social media presence, trade-show participation, and SEO/content marketing.

The firm is privately held, family-operated (Founder/Managing Director Munish Goel; CEO Shubham Goel), with no disclosed institutional funding or external shareholders. It was previously known as Unibiotech Laboratories. Input data flags an important entity-disambiguation caveat: news about a United Laboratories licensing its UBT251 obesity candidate to Novo Nordisk (up to $2B in milestones) and a beta-lactamase inhibitor patent are attributed by the source material to a separately domiciled Zhuhai-based biotech entity sharing the name, not to the Indian nutraceutical contract manufacturer profiled here.
