Samson Pharmaceutical

What Samson Pharmaceutical does

Samson Pharmaceutical, Inc. is a privately held Los Angeles-based contract manufacturer and wholesaler of health, beauty, nutritional, and industrial products, incorporated in California. The company operates a 37,000 sq.ft. FDA-registered manufacturing and warehouse facility in Los Angeles operating under cGMP Quality Systems, supporting OTC drug manufacturing (eyedrops, nasal sprays, sunscreens, hand sanitizers), cosmetics and personal care (shampoos, lotions, scrubs, eyelash serums), nutritional supplements (energy drinks, capsules, nootropics), and industrial liquid filling (air fresheners, cleaning products, disinfectants).

The company's core offering is private label and contract manufacturing services — formula development, compounding, filling, labeling, blister packaging, and product testing — delivered to brand owners, distributors, and wholesalers. Internal R&D capabilities include stability testing, preservative efficacy testing (PET), sample making, new formula development, and formula reverse engineering. In parallel, Samson distributes its own branded product portfolio (Pure Eyes, LA Bodies, Purita, Delilah) through wholesale channels and a direct e-commerce storefront, with its website supporting multilingual access across nine languages.

Revenue is generated through two streams: (1) service fees and per-order manufacturing economics from private label contracts (quote-based pricing with minimum order quantities, multi-year engagement potential), and (2) wholesale product sales of the company's proprietary brands through distributor, retailer, and e-commerce channels. The company sells direct via its website and sales consultations, targets enterprise customers (brand owners, distributors, wholesalers) as its primary segment, and states a 250+ client base with 30+ years of manufacturing experience.
