Flavorman is committed to the success of you and your product. We go beyond beverage development to provide built-in professional services, educational resources, and access to a network of industry contacts, setting our clients up for success even after we’ve brought their dream drink to life. As a single-source beverage partner, Flavorman can lead you in every step of your beverage product development. We work with you to match your idea to a viable product concept.
Combining your input, our expertise, as well as our state-of-the-art technology, our beverage architects develop and refine your product until it meets your exact taste, color, ingredient, and functionality specifics. We provide you with samples of the final formula. While you are meeting with investors, distributors, and retailers, we get you set up to take your product through manufacturing and quality control, so that you can get it into the hands of the consumer. We help you select packaging, and while keeping your location in mind, pair you with the co-packer that will run your production. We create your ingredient labels, review all marketing claims and ensure your product meets FDA standards and regulations. We also conduct shelf-life studies and quality control tests on your commercial samples.
- Custom Formulas: Leave the beverage science to us. We’ll collaborate to create your custom drink, but at the end of the day, YOU own your beverage formulation!
- Custom Flavors: Not only is your formulation custom, but so are your flavors. Your flavors are designed specifically for your product. No one else will have access to what makes your drink so unique!
- Unlimited R&D Samples: When we agree to build your drink, there’s no limit to how many R&D samples you get. We’ll keep formulating until your drink tastes exactly like you’ve envisioned.
- 100 Finished Prototypes: Once we’ve achieved your final formulation, we’ll send you 100 finished prototypes in your packaging so you can use them in marketing, investor, and distributor meetings—you name it.
- Blending Instructions: Having a final formulation is no good if your manufacturer can’t make it! Our team will handle all the scale-up, like creating your drink’s blending instructions, spec sheets, MSDS, and COAs.
