Considerations of Co-packing Your Baked Snack Goods
Outsourcing your baking production requirements to a co-packer (also known as a contract
manufacturer) means you can take advantage of an existing set-up. You can focus on
producing, marketing/branding, and selling your product(s) without having to invest and operate a production facility in which you:
-
May not possess the expertise to operate a manufacturing operation;
-
The required capital (automation, equipment, and staff);
-
The exposed risks;
-
Not being able to focus on marketing/branding and selling which on their own take time,
-
effort and expense to perform properly.
Co-packing is also an ideal solution for starting with a small MOQ (minimum order quantity), or one-off projects to test the products in the marketplace. Therefore, the advantages of co-packing include:
-
Can start with smaller MOQs;
-
Increases scalability;
-
Reduces costs;
-
Use another manufacturer’s existing equipment and certifications;
-
R & D support;
-
Ingredients and packaging can be included which saves time seeking and negotiating such products;
-
Use the experience and expertise of a well-established manufacturer.
However, outsourcing to a co-packer requires putting your trust in another company’s
production capabilities and meeting your specific formulation, finished product, and standards.
But during the process, it’s the co-packer’s responsibility to meet or even exceed your expectations. For this reason, you should do your due diligence, obtain testimonials and work with a contract manufacturer who has the necessary experience and certifications to undertake the production and packaging of your product.
