Frequently Asked Questions About Beverage Brand Development

How much does it cost to start a beverage brand? +
Starting a beverage brand typically requires $50,000-$250,000 depending on formulation complexity, packaging, production volume, and distribution goals. We help you optimize costs and find the right manufacturing partners for your budget. Schedule a consultation for a customized cost estimate.
How long does it take to launch a beverage product? +
From concept to market-ready product, the beverage development process typically takes 6-12 months. This includes formulation (2-4 months), finding a co-packer (1-2 months), production setup (2-3 months), and initial distribution (1-3 months). We can help accelerate your timeline with our established network.
Do I need FDA approval for my beverage? +
Most beverages don't require pre-market FDA approval, but must comply with FDA labeling regulations, ingredient restrictions, and good manufacturing practices (GMP). We ensure your formulation and labeling meet all FDA requirements for your beverage category.
What are minimum order quantities for beverage co-packing? +
Minimum order quantities (MOQs) vary by co-packer and beverage type. Small batch co-packers may start at 1,000-5,000 units, while larger facilities require 10,000-50,000+ units per run. We connect you with co-packers that match your volume needs and growth stage.
How do I get my beverage into retail stores? +
Retail placement requires distributor relationships, broker representation, and direct buyer connections. Our distribution services include broker introductions, distributor partnerships, buyer meeting preparation, and retail strategy development to get your beverage on shelves in grocery, convenience, and specialty stores.
What's the difference between co-packing and contract manufacturing? +
Co-packing typically means you provide the formula and the co-packer produces your beverage. Contract manufacturing often includes formulation development, sourcing ingredients, and complete production management. We help you determine which model fits your needs and budget.
Can you help with beverage formulation and recipe development? +
Yes, our food scientists provide complete beverage formulation services including flavor development, nutritional optimization, shelf-life testing, and production scaling. We work with all beverage categories from functional drinks to RTD coffee to plant-based beverages.
Do you work with CBD or hemp beverages? +
Yes, we have experience with CBD and hemp-infused beverage formulation, manufacturing partnerships, and distribution strategies. CBD beverages have unique regulatory and supply chain requirements we can help you navigate.
