We only succeed when you succeed.
Modern consumers expect more, so we can only ensure success by making the best product possible. As a full service brand partner, we adhere to strict formulation guidelines, regulatory requirements, and continuous process improvement to ensure delivery of the best product. A focus on quality allows everyone to win, including the retail shopper that makes the decision to buy your brand's product.
We protect what's most important to you.
Brand owners understand how difficult it is to maintain an edge in a competitive market. While we work with many clients on a multitude of projects, our team works diligently to protect confidential information. Approved formulations are kept consistent because we will not cut corners even in a volatile market. We do not switch chemical or packaging items without a thorough approval process or brand sign off. It is because of our dedication to integration that we've had strong brand partnerships for well over three decades.
We are an extension of your team.
The best partnerships happen when both sides have information to make the best decisions. We communicate continuously on progress or delays, while offering our customers access to critical information through our customer portal - a real time view into finished goods inventory, customer supplied raw materials, and quality control statuses of recently made products. Our business goal is to ensure all parties in the supply chain win from our vendors to our brand partners to the retailer and finally the end shopper.
