Beverage Consultants

The International Food Network is more than a beverage consultant. They are leaders in the development of food, beverages and nutraceautical products, which are developed and optimized in our labs before they reach shelves in retail stores throughout the world. As beverage consultants, we can work fast and economically, and as such, we greatly reduce the time of the market cycle and due to this fact, our clients can benefit from sales opportunities which exist in the market. Since 1987, International Food Network has been assisting global clients with beverage and food consultants and our offices in both the UK and USA allow us to support a worldwide client base. As leading beverage consultants, we serve the needs of international food and beverage manufacturers, and start-up businesses that are seeking ways in which they can get their products onto shelves. Our company is made up of experience and qualified food technologists who have a good understanding of both the beverage and food industry and their expertise, combined with our service, has allowed the International Food Network to exceed our multinational client's expectations.

During our two decade run as food and beverage consultants, we have developed a six-step approach which has allowed us to determine target consumers and create and develop products that appeal to the target consumers. The first step in the six step approach is idea generation and opportunity identification. In this phase, as beverage consultants we will work with clients to uncover possible areas of opportunity, while phase two, concept generation, will allow us to work with the input received and give consumers the chance to actually sample the newly launched beverage. The other steps within the six step approach which have been created by International Food Network include prototype development, product scale up, and sensory analysis, shelf life testing and plant testing and commercialization. In the fifth stage, the beverage consultants will work together with suppliers and manufacturers to test the quality and stability of the product, while the final phase will have our product development staff working on a commercialization process, which will end with the eventual launch of the beverage.

Being professional beverage consultants, once the launch has taken place, our support will not end, but will continue until after the launch, and once the commercial manufacturing stage is underway, in this way, we are able to offer the guarantee that the product will make it through the storage and distribution phase, on route to the consumer. To find out more about our services, not only as beverage consultants, but within the food and nutraceautical products, feel free to visit the International Food Network website, www.intlfoodnetwork.com. Our beverage consultants have worked with various beverage categories, such as sport drinks, energy shots, sodas, smoothies, juices, waters, coffees teas, and diary drinks, such as flavored milks and pre-biotics drinks. However, being more than beverage consultants, our technologists have worked with dozens of foods and snacks, such as frozen foods, bakery and snacks, and weight loss products.
