Private Label Manuka Honey from New Zealand

Mountain Gold Manuka is a UMF-certified New Zealand Manuka honey manufacturer. We handle grading, packaging, labeling, and shipping — so you launch a finished, market-ready product under your own brand.

Label & Design Service

Don't have artwork ready? No problem! We can recommend an excellent designer who has created several Manuka brands so far, and for a reasonable fee, can help you bring your brand to life as well.

We apply your main label on the jar, plus an additional label on the lid if desired.


Shipping

Our long-standing relationships with international freight forwarders allow us to provide competitive air and sea freight rates, making export seamless and reliable.


Case Study: Manuka4Life (Germany)

We've delivered six private label programs to date, four for brands currently active in the European market.

Manuka4Life is one of our established European private label partners, ordering consistently across multiple product lines and shipment sizes.

The partnership spans several product lines:

  • Mountain Gold Manuka branded jars, adapted with a German-language label for their import business
  • Their own Ahititi private label, covering both Manuka and Kanuka honey
  • Their Manuka Pur private label range, supplied in glass jars sourced and labeled entirely in New Zealand

This mix of branded jars, private label, and multiple honey types shows how we scale a partnership over time — starting with one product line and expanding as a brand grows.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the minimum order for private label Manuka honey? Our MOQ is 200kg per order, combinable across products and grades — you don't need to hit 200kg on a single SKU.

What MGO grades do you offer? We supply monofloral Manuka honey with MGO ranging between 100+ and 1620+. We also offer multifloral Manuka honey on request.

What does UMF certification mean? UMF™ (Unique Manuka Factor) is New Zealand's official quality mark for Manuka honey, verifying key natural markers including MGO content. It confirms the honey is genuine, lab-tested, and meets export-grade standards.

Does the UMF certification apply to a private label? No, the UMF certification is tied to the Mountain Gold Manuka brand. Your private label will have the MGO grade on the label. If you wish to also have the UMF grade, you need to certify your brand with UMF™.

How long does production take? 2 weeks for raw honey, 4 weeks for creamed honey, from order confirmation.

Can you help with label design? Yes — we can recommend a designer experienced with Manuka brands if you don't have artwork ready, and we handle applying labels to both jar and lid.

Which markets do you currently supply? We have active private label partners in Germany, France, the UK, Poland, Romania, and Czechia, and ship worldwide by air or sea.

Do you offer anything besides honey? Yes — Manuka lozenges, Manuka propolis throat spray, and Manuka honey powder for B2B clients are also available as part of your range.

Is Mountain Gold Manuka suitable for small or new brands? Yes — our 200kg MOQ can be split across products and grades, making it accessible for smaller or first-time private label brands, not just established ones.
