EXPERTISE
Finding the right
ingredients, suppliers and sourcing conditions.
Product quality, feasibility and competitiveness often begin with raw-material choices.
MFD Consulting supports companies in identifying and evaluating ingredient suppliers, particularly for sports nutrition, healthy food, functional beverages and food supplements.
Our experience includes proteins, creatine and a broad range of nutritional and functional ingredients. Depending on the assignment, MFD can identify new sources, compare alternatives, facilitate technical and commercial discussions and connect ingredient suppliers with finished-product manufacturers.
Sourcing with economics in mind
The lowest purchase price is not always the best business decision. Supplier selection may need to consider specification, quality, origin, minimum order quantities, lead times, documentation, destination market, payment terms, freight, inventory exposure and total landed cost. MFD can help clients compare these variables to support better sourcing decisions.
