OEM & Co-packing
DapoGo Halal OEM & Co-Packing Services

Datin Zamzarina Zambri — Founder, DapoGo Food Industries
Hand us your recipe — we cook it, seal it in retort pouches, and deliver shelf-stable, ready-to-sell products under your brand, from our factory in Melaka Halal Hub, Malaysia. This service is built for businesses that have a product and an audience, but no factory.
If you are still weighing up whether co-packing is the right route for your food business, start with our founder’s guide to halal OEM and co-packing in Malaysia. This page explains what we offer and how to begin.
What are DapoGo’s OEM rates?
These rates come from DapoGo’s OEM rate card. Consultation is charged per session; development fees start at the rates below per SKU (product variant). The actual production price is confirmed after R&D and costing, based on the recipe, pouch weight, packaging and quantity.
| Service & scope | Rate |
|---|---|
| OEM consultation 45–60 minutes. Deductible from the R&D fee if you proceed within 7 days. |
RM250 / session |
| Private Label Products based on an existing DapoGo formula. |
From RM1,500 / SKU |
| Custom R&D Retort Sample A customer recipe or a new product. |
From RM3,500 / SKU |
| Complex Product Development More complex products or products requiring several trials. |
From RM5,000 / SKU |
Pilot batch: MOQ 300–500 pouches / SKU. Full production: MOQ from 1,000 pouches / SKU, subject to product type and packaging. Pilot batches have a higher unit cost. Confirm the appropriate quantity in your quotation; any smaller trial needs to be discussed separately.
Payment terms: 70% deposit; the remaining 30% before delivery or stock release.
Excluded unless stated: artwork, lab testing, nutrition facts, barcode and halal application. The R&D fee is non-refundable. Samples are for evaluation only, not for sale.
What do we actually do?
Three things, end to end: we cook your recipe in our factory kitchen, we seal it using retort processing so the product keeps at room temperature without refrigeration, and we prepare it under your label — not ours. What leaves the factory is entirely your product.
It is the same technology behind DapoGo’s own range of 54 products — sambal, rendang, rice sets and cooking pastes sold daily on dapogo.com, Shopee, TikTok Shop, Lazada and through Halal Street UK. The kitchen that would cook for your brand is a working kitchen, not a facility waiting for its first client.
Who is this for?
- Founders with a proven recipe — your food already has fans, but building your own facility is not the right next step.
- Existing brands adding a shelf-stable line — restaurants, caterers and retail brands that want a long-life version of what they already sell.
- Export-minded businesses — retort products need no cold chain, which changes the economics of shipping halal Malaysian food to markets like the UK and Singapore.
Why DapoGo?
Our factory operates inside Melaka Halal Hub (Plot 31 & 32, Jalan EP Serkam 9, 77300 Serkam, Melaka), a dedicated halal industrial park, since June 2026. We are not a packaging supplier selling empty pouches — we are a food brand that cooks, and has been in the ready-to-eat business since October 2020. The practicalities of taste, texture and shelf life in retort food are our daily work.
Unsure whether retort is the right format for your product? See our honest comparison: retort vs frozen vs vacuum packing.

What formats and sizes are available?
The factory runs stand-up and pillow-style aluminium retort pouches — the two formats that suit gravies, rendang and pastes. For sambal we also offer glass jars. Pack size follows the weight of your product’s contents, so it is matched during the specification stage rather than picked off a fixed list.
How does the process work?
The rate card sets out six steps: enquiry, OEM consultation, R&D quotation, R&D sample, approval & pilot batch, and full production. See the DapoGo OEM process for what to prepare at each stage.
