New Start-Up Co.?

Take the following into consideration prior to starting analysis and compliance with us here at NutriLABEL and also before going to label design and printing with your graphics person:

Decide where you will produce your product: commercial kitchen, pilot plant, or a licensed co-packer. The formulation may change due to regulatory and food safety requirements, such as from mandated product sample testing (pH, water activity, etc.) as may be required for compliance with your state and federal regulations. A co-packer can assist on this. If not using a co-packer, consult with your particular state's department of health services. Many state internet resources are available.
It may take more than one attempt to achieve a scaled-up product comparable to your original taste profile, especially when using a co-packer or contract processor. Be patient and allow extra time in your business plan. Remember, life's not a rehearsal...so take the time to do it right the first time.
Get approval for your final production formula/recipe from any regulatory agency involved. This depends upon your state requirements and current regulations. United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA) though does apply to most all types of processed packaged food products, especially those in inter-state trade. Many states require pre-certification prior to production. If using a licensed co-packer they will assist you, or manage that for you.

Determine applicable regulatory requirements. Ask us. That's why we are here.
Determine what storage information must be on your package: keep refrigerated, refrigerate after opening, etc. if applicable.
Choose a container size which is compatible with your product type. Work with your co-packer.
Invest as much of your start-up budget in your labels and product presentation as possible. This is the first thing the consumer, your customers, will see.
Decide if you wish to make nutrient content or health claims. If you do, just let us know on our Services Order Form that comes with your services kit.
Then you're ready to let us help you with the details. Nutritional Analysis, Ingredient Statements with Allergen Compliance, FDA Label Compliance Review, etc.
