Co-manufacturing and co-packing

A co-packer or co-manufacturer is an established food manufacturer that processes and/or packages your product according to your specifications within their facility for a fee. There is a distinct difference between co-manufacturers and co-packers, though the terms are often used interchangeably, or simply called “co-packers”.

Co-packing consists of packaging and labelling.

Co-manufacturing includes product development, manufacturing and sometimes ingredient sourcing in addition to packaging and labelling.

A co-packer should be the resource that helps bring your product to market. They should be dependable and ensure that you have long-term stability to ensure you can scale your product with predictable and reliable supply.
