co-packing & manufacturing services
Our Approach
We specialize in doing low volume formulation and manufacturing runs for other small/medium sized tea, herb, spice, and powdered drink brands. As a brand, we are focused on sourcing the best tasting, highest quality Canadian and internationally grown ingredients. By developing long standing relationships with wild-crafters, Indigenous communities, suppliers, and farmers, we are committed to moving through community in a good way.
We want to support other tea brands, creating quality solutions as affordable prices. We co-pack products to your required specifications, offering support or connections with formulation, packaging, and labeling solutions. We are a small but mighty team, new clients are accepted based on our capacity.
Who We Work With
If you are looking for a one-time service, we are not the manufacturer for you. Similarly, if you are just starting out, have an idea but no sales, we are not the right manufacturer for you (although we can maybe help you with ingredients).
If you are a brand that has outgrown your commercial kitchen space, are looking for low MOQs and the ability to innovate and iterate products quickly, we would love to hear from you. Our small MOQs mean that you can test out and refine your products on a monthly basis, learning what works really well and what does not without tying up your cashflow. Our services are boutique style, and we offer support with packaging, ingredients, and behind the scenes content creation. Because these costs are shared across all the brands we work with it can be significantly less expensive than sourcing alone. Our services work best for brands who are selling over 200 units per month (powders / spices / loose tea / packs of 15 tea bags) or 3,000 single serves per month.
We are excellent at teas.
We are really good at spices.
We are growing into powders.
We do fulfillment, if we have to.

PLEDGE TO OTHER TEA MANUFACTURERS
As a CPG founder turned Plant Manager, I know how stressful down lines or product emergencies can be. I would not be where I am today without the help and support of other tea makers. In the event your production line goes down and you need assistance completing a run or need an emergency run, please reach out. I will gladly run your products for a flat fee I will ask you to sign a contract including a mutual NDA, and you will need to provide proof that your line is indeed down. Of course, this is dependent on our capacity and up to our discretion.
