Beverage Manufacturing Co. was founded in Delaware by three longtime friends and beverage industry professionals, Maz Mitchell, Cathy Holwell and Peter Norberg. Together, they bring decades of practical experience across beverage formulation, manufacturing, packaging, product development and commercial production.
The company works with entrepreneurs, beverage start-ups, established manufacturers, private label companies and global brands. Its approach is designed to support businesses at different stages, whether they are developing their first beverage, expanding an existing range or entering a new product category.
This broad experience allows Beverage Manufacturing Co. to understand that beverage development involves more than creating an appealing recipe. Commercial success can depend on formulation, production requirements, packaging, compliance, logistics and the ability to scale efficiently.
Beverage Manufacturing Co. offers knowledge across a diverse range of beverage categories. This includes non-alcoholic and functional beverages, juices, dairy products, plant-based milks, carbonated soft drinks, private label products and alcoholic ready-to-drink beverages.
This range is particularly valuable for brands exploring new concepts. Different beverages require different production considerations, and understanding those differences can help businesses develop products that are both appealing to consumers and practical to manufacture.

Beverage Manufacturing Co. brings together category knowledge and practical manufacturing experience to help brands navigate the development process.

For a beverage brand, the path from concept to finished product involves many connected decisions. With the right expertise across formulation, manufacturing, packaging and commercial scalability, those decisions can be approached with greater clarity. Beverage Manufacturing Co. is built around this process: helping beverage businesses develop ideas, understand production requirements and work toward products prepared for commercial markets.
Consider your target audience, flavour profile, ingredients, product format, shelf-life requirements, packaging and production budget. These factors help establish a practical formulation and manufacturing plan.
Beverage formulation involves selecting ingredients, balancing flavours, refining texture and assessing product stability. The formulation is then evaluated to determine whether it meets the intended product specifications and manufacturing requirements.
Commercial beverage manufacturing covers carbonated soft drinks, juices, dairy beverages, plant-based milks, functional drinks and alcoholic ready-to-drink cocktails. Production requirements vary depending on the formulation and product category.
Quality control helps maintain consistent flavour, appearance, texture and product specifications across production batches. It also supports product safety, shelf-life management and compliance with applicable manufacturing standards and regulations.
Brands should assess ingredient availability, production capacity, packaging options, quality requirements, shelf-life expectations and distribution needs. Planning these factors early helps identify manufacturing challenges before increasing production volumes.
