At FoodOps, we’re always on the lookout for manufacturing solutions for small brands. They’re actually all over the place: butcher shops with vemags, bakeries with excess capacity, the mercado that makes fresh salsas and tamales every day. Many times, these proprietors are eager to take on extra business and have processes in place to be a successful co-packer for a growing cottage business.
In this case, Craig ventured into a chocolate and candy store and struck up a conversation with the owner. After a quick tour in the production area and discussion of capabilities, we have added them to our co-packer list as a viable option for a small chocolate company.
We look to make useful connections that help our clients and manufactures while living our lives. Building a strong network is core to our success!
