The Royal Group understands how to get Over-the-Counter products to market.
Clients who trust The Royal Group
TRG makes it easy for clients to plan and deliver programs under a strict umbrella of compliance for Over-the-Counter (OTC) design through fulfillment. Our speed to market is an industry benchmark. Our adherence to our clients’ Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and our strict adherence to current Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) ensure that your projects have a safe and quick trajectory to be in store, on time.
TRG represents an industry-leading single-source solution for prescription to non-prescription (Rx to OTC) switches* and for retail launches for new OTC products that require a true turnkey solution from design through delivery.
Timelines are not stable or predictable. We know that ‘tweaks’ to a program are inevitable; change and issues occur. Clients require and deserve a flexible, organized partner in this category.

As the industry-leading provider of multi-branded OTC programs to retailers, TRG has the size and scale to inventory, stage, design, build and deliver multi-branded programs faster and more accurately than any other organization in this space. These programs include multiple CPG branded and seasonally-themed health displays (ex. first aid, cough and cold, allergy, back to school and travel, to name a few).
