Generic off-brand hubs

I bought a set of wheels a number of years ago whose hubs were unbranded (see photo). They seem like decent quality. There are but a few hub manufacturers in the world. It seems that there must be a way to secure some of this type of unbranded hub (not neccessarily the one shown), from somewhere. Once a label goes onto something, the price goes way up. Why pay magnitudes more just for a label?

I think these were an unlabelled "Formula" hub. Considering these had press-in cartridge bearings, one wouldn't need to be concerned about the cone and race machining quality usually found in a lesser hub.
