Turnkey beverage development

We turn your ideas into products, professionally, from concept to production.

What we offer

Want your own range of soft drinks, syrups or juices? Or have an idea and don’t know how to make it real? Talk to us. We take your idea from concept to first production run at a suitable accredited bottler in the Czech Republic, Austria or Germany, and deliver the goods to your warehouse. We hand over all the contacts for component suppliers and the chosen bottler, so you can run further production yourself, with our help whenever you need it. Beyond production consulting we also offer legal support for registering your trademark with the Industrial Property Office in Prague or with the EUIPO in Alicante for the whole EU.

Development lab: scale, extracts, a recipe in a notebook and a bottle drawing. On the wall: product concept development, recipe sampling, regulatory check, tender among bottlers, sourcing raw materials, blending and packing

How development works

1. Project brief

A concrete brief based on your idea, vision or reference product.

2. Project plan

We break the project into phases and present a pre-production cost calculation, which we then fine-tune with you down to the last detail.

3. Development & first production

Development itself, with ongoing approval of every component design (above all bottles, caps, labels and cartons), purchasing, and the first production run of the finished product.

30 years of experience for you: Brands such as Hermelín, Rama, Hellmann’s, Merci, Toffifee, Karlovarská Becherovka, Lemond, Staropramen, Bohemsca and many more. Some I created, for some I built a new brand concept to help them grow, for others a new brand identity to take them abroad, and for some I arranged production. Every one of them taught me something I can now pass on to my customers and business partners. Get in touch about developing, producing or refining your product concept or an existing product. I will be glad to help.
