FOCUS AREAS

■ Procurement & Pricing:

Global ingredient sourcing from A (agar agar gum) to Z (dehydrated zucchini) and everything in between. Let us locate that ‘hard to find’ ingredient for you. Jars, cans, corrugate, etc., we can help with those as well. From quick wins to long term contracts, we will negotiate the pricing you need to increase profitability. We can help steer your procurement and supply chain function through difficulties and challenges. Allow us to use our expertise to help you build strategic relationships with key suppliers and obtain the most favourable pricing to help you achieve the results you need.

■ Private Label Manufacturing:

A quality co-packer can offer flexible manufacturing volumes, state of the art equipment and innovative product concepts. Whether a test run or full production, let us connect you to the right partner to help grow your business.

■ Nutritionals & Labeling:

Confused about government nutritional and labeling mandates? We help ensure you meet all regulations for the nutritional panel and ingredient declaration. Complete and current information keeps you compliant with the ever-changing rules and regulations.

■ Logistics & Warehousing:

Your product is ready to go but now what? The world is your marketplace. Let us help you get it there – from customs documents to transportation by land, air or sea, we can make all the arrangements. CFIA, CBSA; we know and can help deal with them on your behalf. Warehousing allows you additional space to accommodate your growth and place your product close to your customers.
