A press release regarding the kit notes that brands entering a business relationship with Lief Labs will be provided with a GMP Starter Kit that includes three critical Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) guidance documents, which Lief created to help brands get their regulatory framework and quality unit started. Customers will have the option of purchasing seven additional SOPs, which offer a broader range of compliance initiatives that can be used to start a regulatory compliance program.

Adel Villalobos, CEO and Founder of Lief, said in the release: “Lief Labs was built on a platform of transparency and we expect the same level of transparency and adherence to regulatory guidelines of the brands and companies with whom we work and partner. A lack of knowledge and non-compliance with FDA regulations places a brand’s reputation and inventory at risk and can also lead to product recalls and account suspension on vital distribution channels, such as Amazon. Lief wants to help build brands that are not only innovative, sustainable, and marketable, but also industry compliant, and we’ve developed the GMP Starter Kit to put companies on the right path to cGMP compliance from the start.”The kit can be downloadedhere.
