FAQ

Your Questions, Answered

What does a custom food manufacturing partner do (vs. a co-manufacturer)?

A custom food manufacturing partner builds to your recipe and requirements—from benchtop and pilot samples to full-scale production—rather than forcing you into a preset template. We collaborate on formulation, process, and packaging, provide fast sampling (~30 days in typical cases), and scale with clear checkpoints. Think private label and custom builds, not one-size-fits-all.

How fast can I get samples, and what do you need to start?

Most projects can enter a “Sample Sprint” with benchtop-to-pilot samples in about 30 days once we have your brief, target specs (taste/texture/viscosity/particulates), allergens, shelf-life goals, and desired pack format (VFFS, stand-up pouch, cup, boil-in-bag). We’ll map feasibility, timing, and MOQs up front so you can make decisions quickly.

Which products and packaging formats do you support?

Core capabilities include soups & sauces (including hot fill), cook-chill/boil-in-bag, extruded + fried snacks, and frozen heat-and-eat components. Packaging and formats span VFFS, pillow packs, stand-up pouches, cups, portion packs, and boil-in-bag—built for CPG retail, restaurants, foodservice, and distributors.

Are you FDA/USDA approved, inspected, or certified? What about SQF/GFSI?

Food products are typically made in FDA-registered facilities; certain meat, poultry, and egg products are produced under USDA (FSIS) inspection where applicable. We also operate under recognized third-party schemes like SQF and GFSI. We’ll confirm the right regulatory pathway for your specific SKU and channel and indicate where inspection legends or badges apply.

How do you ensure the quality of your products?

Quality is built into every step of our process. We have a dedicated QC team that oversees ingredient sourcing, production, and packaging with strict checkpoints. Our R&D is led by a classically trained chef, which means every product begins with high-quality ingredients and is developed with flavor and consistency in mind. From bench testing to full runs, we combine culinary expertise with rigorous quality control to ensure your products taste great and meet the highest standards.
