Contract packaging, also know as co-packing is where a company is contracted to manufacture a clients food products. The process starts with the client transitioning their recipe and process to the co-packer for scaling and development. The co-packer can assist in acquiring the necessary FDA required paperwork and testing for the client. Upon the completion of the development process the co-packer will manufacture a retail ready product on the behalf of the client.
