Wholesale USA peptides.
From inside the industry.

the next lab is the wholesale arm of a working research-peptide operation — we run our own RUO brand on the same supply. The offer is one offer, three lanes: white-label fulfillment under the buyer's label with no minimum, wholesale by the case from $1,500 [LA same-day domestic, Hong Kong worldwide], and the marketing house [storefront, processor, compliance]. Payments rides every lane rather than being one. This desk is your reference: what we sell, what it costs, and how to talk about it.

Testing
Certificates on file
Commitment
White label none · cases from $1,500
Fulfillment
Ships from Los Angeles
Catalog
74 SKUs · 6 categories
The one-liner — memorize it

"Everyone else sells you vials. We sell you the part you do not want to run. Your name on the vial with nothing on your shelf, fulfilled out of Los Angeles and plugged straight into your store. Research peptides by the case when you want to hold stock. Plus the two things nobody else hands you — a payment path through a bank that underwrites this category, and a storefront built to survive in it. Every claim we make ships with a document."

Supply
Vetted factory, hero SKUs always in stock. USA fulfillment.
Testing
Independent third-party certificates on file, lot tracking on every vial.
Labeling
Clean RUO labels, matte waterproof stock — we print, ours or theirs.
Fulfillment
We pack and ship under their label from our LA warehouse.
Before anything else

Everything we sell is Research Use Only — not for human consumption. Never claim or imply human use, dosing, or benefit — in writing, on calls, anywhere. The full non-negotiables are in Sell it. Compliance is the moat that keeps our doors open and your commissions flowing.

— 01 · Where we sit —

The industry, honestly.

You're selling into a market with real, specific problems. Learn them — every one of them is the reason a buyer picks up the phone.

How this market actually works
  • Most supply is untested gray-market import. No third-party testing, no lot tracking, no paperwork when a customer asks. Buyers know this — it's their single biggest anxiety, and it's why a COA library closes deals.
  • The category can't run mainstream paid ads. Brands grow on communities, organic, and email — so a brand's reputation is its entire acquisition engine. One bad batch is existential for them. That's the fear you're actually selling against.
  • Payments are fragile. Card processors routinely drop peptide merchants. At wholesale, wire/ACH invoicing is the norm — nobody serious is asking to run a card.
  • September 2025: FDA warning letters went to sellers marketing RUO peptides with human-use implications — BPC-157 and GLP compounds included. The letters targeted the marketing language, not the molecules. Sloppy copy got hit; disciplined RUO sellers didn't. That's why our compliance line is absolute.
Where we sit in it
  • We operate in this category ourselves. Our own RUO brand runs on the same factory relationship, the same third-party certificates, the same LA fulfillment. The wholesale arm sells what we already use — we're operators, not brokers flipping vials.
  • The big wholesale books gate pricing behind committed volume. Per the July 2026 schedules: the in-stock lane starts at $25K monthly committed with rebate true-ups; the cheaper lane is made-to-order — COD with a 30–50% production deposit and a 2–4 week lead.
  • Our book has one tier and it opens at $1,500. No monthly commitment to unlock a price, and white label opens at a single vial. On the flagship SKUs we run well under their $25K entry pricing — in stock, no deposit, no lead time, no true-up math.
  • The honest exception: Epithalon 50mg — the committed books run it below our cost, so we lose that one on price. Don't lead with it; lead with the other 73 SKUs.
the money right now

This is the biggest wellness wave in a decade, and it's early. The reps who grow accounts fastest are the ones who can show a buyer where the money is actually going — and why sitting still is the expensive choice.

$100B+
Where analysts put the branded GLP-1 drug market by 2030 — up from roughly $50B in 2024. That demand doesn't stay inside the pharmacy. The overflow — priced out, waitlisted, or wanting a research channel — is exactly what your accounts sell into.
Monthly
Peptides get used up and reordered on a cycle. A landed account isn't one sale — it's subscription-shaped revenue. Ten accounts reordering every month beat a hundred one-time buyers, and they compound.
Pre-sold
The branded-drug boom already did the customer education. Your accounts don't have to create demand — they capture it. Metabolic is the fastest-moving category in the book for exactly this reason.
The scale argument — use it on reorder calls

The account that orders one hero SKU is leaving money on the table while the wave is cresting. The move is to widen the SKU mix [metabolic pulls them in; recovery and longevity are the repeat-margin attach] and put them on a standing order so they never go dry mid-wave. Frame it as theirs to lose: "the demand is already in your audience — the only question is whether they buy it from you or from someone with worse supply. Let's make sure you're never the one out of stock."

Market figures are directional [analyst consensus, branded-drug category] — use them to size the opportunity, never as a claim about our product. Everything we sell stays RUO.

That's the whole sell: a category the market is pouring money into, tested supply that's in stock with no commitment, sold by people inside the industry. You don't need to hype anything — the demand and the buyer's own problems do the talking. Your job is to know both better than they do.

— 02 · Onboarding & pay —

Onboarding the sales manager.

This is the checklist for bringing a sales manager onto the desk — currently Ari. Paperwork first, access second, product knowledge third. Nobody quotes a buyer before all three are done.

01
NDA signed
Covers the portal, pricing, client lists and supplier identities — across every commonly-owned brand, not just this one. Signed before any access is issued.
02
Sales agreement signed
Rate, scope, residual terms, compliance clause and termination. Contracting entity is Axiom Global Holdings LLC, a Delaware LLC doing business as the next lab.
03
Access issued
This desk [gate code], the partner guide PDF to send prospects, and an intake-only portal route — client creation and pricing stay with management.

The six things to know cold

01 · Pay
8% of gross sales on B2B and white label. How it is earned, when it lands, what forfeits it.
02 · Payments
B2B is wire and ACH — no cards, no processor fee. For buyers who need card processing on their own store, there is a processor introduction we can make.
03 · LA fulfillment
Lead white-label conversations with LA fulfillment. It is the centerpiece, not a footnote.
04 · COAs
Freedom Diagnostics is the issuing lab — that independence is the anchor. Certificates are per lot, and buyers should ask for the current one.
05 · Portal invites
Invite-only, single-use, 14 days. Walking a buyer through it is a close in itself — see The machine.
06 · The affiliate lane
Retail referrals to thenextlab.co at 10%. Know the difference from B2B — see The affiliate lane.

How the pay works

Direct · B2B + white label

8% of gross sales

8% / collected, per account owned
One rate across both lanes. First order and every reorder, for as long as the account keeps buying and the agreement is active.
  • Gross sales = collected, net of refunds, chargebacks, shipping and tax
  • Residuals run during the term only — they end at termination
  • Paid monthly, by the 15th, on the prior month's collections
  • Compliance breach forfeits commission on the affected revenue
Override · recruited affiliates

5% then 2%

5% / 2% / on a recruited affiliate's sales
For recruiting affiliates into the retail lane. The affiliate earns their own 10% — this override sits on top of it and is paid by the company, not deducted from them.
  • 5% of the recruited affiliate's first $50k of attributed net sales
  • 2% uncapped above $50k, within a six-month attribution window
  • One level deep only — no overrides on someone else's recruits
  • $500 dust filter; no double-dip between B2B and affiliate revenue
What the sales seat does not get

No portal admin. No visibility into base cost — ever, to anyone. No authority to set custom pricing: the standard book is wholesale plus 15%, and any deviation is a management decision, not a rep's. Quote from the portal, every time. Volume is the strategy — a hundred thin accounts beat ten fat ones, and discounting to win one deal teaches the market the wrong number.

your first 90 days
Days 1–30 · Learn & load
Read this desk end-to-end — the compliance line in Sell it is the one section to know cold, because you'll be teaching it. Master the hero catalog, the COA story, and pulling live pricing from the portal. Build a list of 50+ Tier 1 brands, start outreach.

Goal: pipeline built, first discovery calls booked, zero compliance missteps.
Days 31–60 · First closes
Convert discovery into first small orders — no MOQ makes this easy. Close your first 1–3 wholesale accounts. Run white-label conversations with medispas and audience-rich prospects. Turn what works into repeatable scripts — they're your future team's training material.

Goal: first revenue on the board; a repeatable rhythm.
Days 61–90 · Build the book, then the team
Drive reorders; introduce standing orders. Bring up white-label fulfillment where ops are hurting. Ask every happy account for referrals. Start scoping first hires — this desk is the training stack, so every rep learns from the same pages.

Goal: recurring residual income; predictable pipeline; the outline of the team that scales it.
Compensation — the short version

8% of gross sales on B2B wholesale and white label — one rate, first order and every reorder from accounts you own. Weighted toward residual income: you get paid every month an account keeps buying. Gross sales means collected revenue, net of refunds, chargebacks, shipping and tax [we invoice wire/ACH; new accounts prepay — you earn when the money lands]. Compliance is a condition of getting paid. Full detail, including the affiliate override, is in Onboarding & pay.
