Your brilliant beverage idea deserves expert guidance to become a successful business.
Every week, passionate entrepreneurs approach us with the same challenge: "I've perfected my recipe, but how do I actually get it made?" Or, “I’ve got the perfect recipe, but I’m struggling to know how best to preserve it.”The gap between kitchen success and commercial production is filled with technical hurdles most founders never see coming - from pH optimisation to get it shelf stable, to finding co-packers who understand your vision.
We've spent over 20 years solving exactly these problems. Whether you're scaling from farmers' markets to major retailers or launching your very first commercial product, we ensure your manufacturing journey is smooth, profitable, and as true to your original vision as you can get when scaling up.
Our Services for Brand Owners
Manufacturing Consulting
From £1,200
Ensure your product can actually be made before you invest in trials.
Technical guidance covering formulation optimisation, co-packer selection, production readiness, scale-up support, and problem resolution. Services tailored to your specific stage and requirements.
We adapt our services to what you actually need, not what a standard package dictates. Descriptions show typical scope - your project may require different elements for optimal results.
Premium Services
While we provide expert technical guidance and recommendations, you remain fully responsible for your product's compliance, safety, and commercial success.
Our role is advisory - we equip you with the knowledge and specifications to make informed decisions, but all final choices regarding formulation, manufacturing partners, and processes rest with you.
We're happy to participate in discussions with manufacturers and third parties at your request and with you present, but we don't conduct direct negotiations or one-to-one consultations with manufacturers on your behalf. Our recommendations are based on industry best practices and our experience, but you must validate all advice within your specific context and regulatory requirements.
Think of us as your technical advisors - we provide the expertise to guide your decisions, but the decisions and their outcomes remain yours.
