About Zeshaan Khan

Hi, I’m Zeshaan Khan!(pronounced \"ZEE-Shawn\")I bring over 13 years of experience in nutraceutical and food manufacturing, specializing in formulation, commercialization, and regulatory compliance. My expertise lies in developing and launching innovative dietary supplements and functional foods, ensuring products are not only effective and market-ready but also fully compliant with FDA, cGMP, and any third-party certification requirements.With a strong foundation in Regulatory Affairs, Quality Assurance, and Food Safety, I’ve led cross-functional teams through the entire product lifecycle — from R&D and ingredient sourcing to scale-up, quality control, and regulatory approval. I thrive on solving complex challenges, whether it’s optimizing formulations for performance and cost, ensuring accurate food and supplement labeling, or preparing for rigorous third-party audits (Halal, Kosher, Organic, Non-GMO, NSF, Vegan, Gluten-Free). What I Bring to the Table: New Product Development & Commercialization (From Concept to Full-Scale Production) Regulatory Compliance & Quality Assurance (FDA, cGMP, SQF) Food Safety & HACCP Implementation (Risk Management, Preventative Controls, Audits) Food & Supplement Labeling Expertise (Claims Substantiation, FDA Regulations) Third-Party Certifications & Audits (Halal, Kosher, Organic, NSF, Vegan) Strategic & Analytical Problem-Solving (Risk Assessment, Root Cause Analysis, Continuous Improvement) Leadership & Team Development (Mentoring, Cross-Functional Collaboration, Process Optimization) Project Management & Process Optimization (Stakeholder Coordination, Timelines, Execution)I enjoy connecting with professionals in the food, supplement, and regulatory industries to share insights, collaborate, and stay ahead of industry trends.
