Food/Beverage Product Ideation & Development
Do you love food and have an idea for a new food or beverage product that you want to explore? Let's work through the steps of product development, from ideation to market research, bench top development and consumer tests. On a small scale, we will explore what goes into creating a product that is viable to sell. At the end, you will have a new food product with a clear target audience, and the information to consider taking it to the next steps (financial investment, scale up, and product launch).
