White labeling is a similar concept to private labeling. The key difference is that white labeling is using a pre-made product and selling it as your own. Whereas in private labeling, you would have your own specific product that third party manufacturers for you. Essentially you would be selling the same product as others but with different branding. Take for example your local supermarket, they are likely to carry products with their own brand name. But they would have actually used white-labeled products from a manufacturer and put their own brand name on it.
Why should you consider white labeling?
Private labeling is when you outsource your manufacturing to a third party and you sell it under your own brand name.
