Retail and Resort Formats
The same formulation can be filled as a retail pack for Malé shelves or as a small-format amenity for resort rooms. Two markets, one production run.

Your India Manufacturing Partner for Maldives
The Maldives imports almost everything it sells, and it sells to two very different customers at once — a local population through Malé pharmacies and retail, and a large resort trade that buys amenities and sun care in volume. Aetos Cosmetics manufactures white-label skincare, personal care and sun care in India, in both retail and amenity formats.
Why Importers in Maldives Choose Aetos
Sun Care is the Category
Equatorial sun all year. SPF 30 and SPF 50, an oil free matte gel that leaves no white cast, a tinted SPF 50 and a mineral kids sunscreen are all in regular production.
Short Sea Route
From the west coast of India to Malé is one of the shortest export runs we handle, which keeps freight sensible even on modest order sizes.

How it works
- Tell us the products and the market. Which items, which pack sizes, and that they are going to Maldives. Labelling rules and buyer taste differ market to market.
- We quote. Ex Works, in US dollars, per piece, at the quantity you give us.
- Artwork and packing. You send your logo and label artwork, or we help you build it. The bottle, tube, jar, cap, label and carton are confirmed before anything is printed.
- Samples. Development samples are produced against the agreed brief so you can approve texture, fragrance and pack before a full run. Sample development is charged, and the charge is credited in full against your first production order.
- Production and shipping. We manufacture, pack and prepare the export documents for your clearing agent at destination.
Minimum order
3,000 units per product. Different products can be combined in one shipment, so a first order to Maldives usually carries three to five products rather than one. There is no minimum on how many different products you take.
