StartFill · Fulfillment from the Blumental group
Store it, fill it, ship it – we handle everything after the ingredient
You source your raw materials from Blumental Bayern. Everything that comes next is handled by StartFill – our fulfillment company in the same group, at the same site in Nuremberg, Germany: food-grade warehousing, contract filling and packing, pick & pack, and shipping across the EU. From €0.99 per order, with no minimums and no lock-in.
The pallet has arrived. Now what?
Everything between a delivered pallet and a parcel at your customer’s door is where the time goes. Recognise any of this?
The stock is in your office
Botanical raw materials need dry, temperature-controlled, food-grade space – not a spare room or a corner of a friend’s warehouse.
Filling happens after hours
Jars, pouches, tins and labels by hand: fine at 50 units, impossible at 5,000 – and not documented to food-safety standards.
Every order is manual
Pick, pack, print the label, book the carrier, process the return. Minutes per order, days per month.

- One contact for material and logistics. Blumental Bayern supplies the ingredients; StartFill stores, fills and ships them – both at Melanchthonplatz 4–6, 90443 Nuremberg.
- Food and supplement experience built in. We have handled dried flowers, herbs, spices and extracts for years, including batch traceability and CoA per batch.
- Certified: ISO 9001, ISO 22000, HACCP, EU Organic, FDA registered.
- Connected to your systems. JTL-Wawi, Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon and the major carriers – orders and stock sync automatically.
- No minimums, no lock-in. Start with a single pallet and scale when it makes sense.

Frequently asked
Do I have to buy from Blumental Bayern to use StartFill?
No. StartFill operates as an independent third-party fulfillment provider for brands of any origin. If you do already source from Blumental, you simply remove one transport leg – delivery and put-away happen at the same site.
Are there minimum volumes or a minimum contract term?
No. There is no minimum order volume and no lock-in period. You are billed for the storage space you actually use and the orders actually processed.
Can you store food and food supplements?
Yes. The facilities are food-grade and certified to ISO 22000 and HACCP, EU Organic is covered, and temperature-controlled cold chain storage is available for sensitive goods.
Can StartFill fill and label my products too?
Yes. Filling dry goods and powders into your own containers, sealing, labelling with batch and best-before data, and bundle building are standard services – contract filling without you running a production line.
I am based outside the EU. Can I still use this?
Yes – this is one of the most common setups. You ship stock once into the German warehouse, and StartFill fulfils EU orders locally, so your customers get domestic delivery times instead of international shipping and customs delays.
How quickly can I start?
After a first call you get a quote covering storage and order handling. Once product data and the first inbound delivery are agreed, going live usually takes a few business days.
