Food Product Development
Food development is a complex process...
Many nutraceutical companies don’t have the resources to efficiently develop new food products, or improve their existing formulas. Outsource these services to a specialist company like Omniblend for faster turnover, quality assurance and more satisfied customers who love your products!
Don’t waste thousands of dollars setting up equipment and hiring workers...
Our experienced team of food technologists can handle as little or as much of the food production process as required.

What is food product development?
Food product development explains the complex steps a business undertakes to create a new food product, or improve an established formula before putting it on the market for consumers to buy.
This process requires a lot of planning, creativity, experimentation and testing by the product development team. There’s also in-depth knowledge of:
- Ingredients
- Processing materials and methods
- Laws and standards about food production
- Consumer preferences and feedback
The development team includes food scientists, researchers, testers, regulatory experts, manufacturers and often marketing specialists.
