Explore Our Process

Our R&D Capabilities

We leverage advanced food science and state-of-the-art facilities to bring your product ideas to life, ensuring they meet the highest international standards.

Recipe Formulation

Customizing flavor profiles, sweetness levels (sugar-free options), and natural color retention to match your target market preferences.

Moisture Control

Optimizing water activity (aW) to extend shelf life naturally without chemical preservatives, crucial for global export logistics.

Rigorous Lab Testing

In-house microbial testing and chemical analysis to ensure every batch complies with FDA, HACCP, and EU food safety regulations.

Packaging Innovation

Developing barrier packaging solutions that protect against oxidation and moisture, ideal for both bulk ingredients and retail-ready OEM.

The OEM/ODM Process

From initial concept to full-scale production, our structured R&D pipeline guarantees a seamless transition and a market-ready final product.

01 Consultation

Client Requirements & Idea Incubation

We start by understanding your vision. Whether it's a new freeze-dried tropical fruit mix or a specific mesh size for fruit powder, our team analyzes the feasibility, target audience, and compliance requirements for your market.

02 Prototyping

Lab Prototyping & Sampling

Our food scientists develop initial prototypes. We adjust variables like drying time, temperature, and raw material sourcing. Samples are sent to you for tasting, visual inspection, and feedback.

03 Iteration

Refinement & Shelf-Life Testing

Based on your feedback, we fine-tune the recipe. Concurrently, we conduct accelerated shelf-life testing to ensure the product maintains its nutritional value, crunchiness (or softness), and vibrant color over time.

04 Production

Pilot to Mass Production

Once approved, we scale up from a pilot run to mass manufacturing. Our ISO/HACCP certified facilities ensure that the quality of the millionth unit exactly matches the approved prototype.

Advanced Technology & Equipment

Our facility is equipped with state-of-the-art machinery, allowing us to strictly control variables like temperature, vacuum pressure, and humidity to produce the perfect bite every time.

  • Sub-Zero Freeze Drying (-40°C)

    Our industrial vacuum freeze dryers operate at ultra-low temperatures to sublimate ice directly into vapor. This preserves 99% of vitamins, natural color, and cellular structure without adding preservatives.

  • Precision Moisture Control

    Using advanced moisture analyzers (aW meters), we guarantee optimal water activity levels in both soft-dried and freeze-dried products to maximize shelf life and prevent microbial growth.

  • Clean Room Processing

    All slicing, drying, and packing occur in ISO-certified clean rooms with HEPA filtration, ensuring zero cross-contamination and the highest food safety standards.

R&D & OEM Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about partnering with us for custom product development and private label manufacturing.

What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) for custom R&D?
For standard private label requests (existing recipes in custom packaging), the MOQ is typically low (e.g., a mixed LCL shipment). However, for entirely new custom recipes that require extensive lab testing and trial runs, we usually require a commitment equivalent to a 20ft container once mass production begins.
How long does the prototyping and sampling phase take?
Initial consultation and lab prototyping generally take 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the complexity of the recipe and ingredient availability. Once the prototype is developed, we will send samples via DHL/FedEx for your evaluation.
Can you match an existing product I have?
Yes. Our food scientists are experts at reverse-engineering and matching specific taste profiles, textures, and ingredient lists. Send us your benchmark sample, and we will formulate a product that matches or exceeds its quality using premium Vietnamese agricultural sources.
Do you provide custom packaging design services?
We provide comprehensive OEM packaging solutions, including printed aluminum foil bags, retail zip-lock pouches, and bulk cartons. While we do not design the graphics in-house, we provide the precise die-lines for your designers and handle all the printing and packing on our end.
