In this episode of The Ingredientsage Podcast, we break down FEFO (First Expired, First Out) inventory management and why it is a critical compliance and quality control practice in the dietary supplement industry.

We explore how FEFO differs from FIFO and how improper inventory rotation can lead to expired products, potency loss, and regulatory risk.

You’ll learn how FEFO principles apply across raw materials, in-process inventory, and finished goods, as well as the systems and documentation needed to maintain compliance.

We also discuss warehouse controls, lot tracking, shelf-life validation, and logistics coordination that protect product integrity from manufacturing through distribution.

For brand owners and operations teams, this episode provides a practical roadmap for aligning supplement logistics with GMP expectations and consumer safety.

Because understanding ingredients is the first step toward building better wellness.
