JPG can help you find the best-fit contract manufacturer for your food or beverage product
FIND MY COMAN
Finding the right partner can be time consuming and frustrating. There are thousands of contract manufacturers ("coman") and contract packers ("copacker") out there but very few that have the right equipment, capabilities, and expertise for your specific needs.
Take advantage of JPG';s breadth of expertise from working with startups to large, established CPG companies. We know the process to find a manufacturing solution for your unique needs. We'll help narrow your search to the best 3-4 options so you can make an informed decision and find the right coman fit.
Working with individual or hyped-up consultants with limited experience can lead to costly mistakes. At JPG our process is disciplined and backed by decades of experience. We’ll lead you down a path to success and help you get your product into peoples’ hands without wasting time, money, and effort.
A Fortune 50 food company needed more product to expand to new markets…and their current network wasn’t cutting it
An innovative meat analog brand needed a coman partner while building their own plant…but had to protect their IP at all costs
An original in the plant-based food space wanted to launch an entirely new product at Expo West… 8 weeks before the show
A previous coman we were working with was having trouble commercializing a new product. Working with JPG, we were able to find a new partner that is able to make the product just like we wanted it. The JPG team were quick, communicative, and great to work with.

We leverage our internally curated database of over 9,000 manufacturers to those that meet your specific parameters. Since we know the terminology and speak the language of extruders, sheeting equipment, and fat profiles, we can narrow down the list quickly. We've laid out the steps to be smooth and easy for you – leave the heavy lifting to us.
Rest assured in knowing our process is also totally objective, meaning we only have your success in mind. While our experience means certain partners immediately come to mind, we don’t receive any kickbacks or incentives from any comans.
We’re here for you. At JPG Resources we help our food & beverage brand clients with the entire commercialization process, from developing or fine-tuning your formula to delivering consumer insights.
