Book The Food Business ToolKit for Entrepreneurs How to Research  Develop and Produce a New Food Product

Download or read book The Food Business ToolKit for Entrepreneurs How to Research Develop and Produce a New Food Product written by Rachel Zemser and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-16 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black & White Interior Version ! Wondering how to turn your great fresh or packaged food product idea into a successful business? Planning is one thing, but the food science laboratory development work is where you "do or die." The technical part of the food industry is mysterious for a reason. Most food scientists work directly for food companies, and the technical knowledge is proprietary and is not typically shared! However, with the recent surge of entrepreneur start-up food companies, the technical science basics must be shared in order to ensure we continue to have an efficient and safe food supply. As a food scientist and food product developer consultant I have helped many aspiring food entrepreneurs and start up food companies understand these technical steps and moving parts needed to bring an idea from kitchen to commercialization. The Food Business Tool Kit brings you my many years of hands-on experience with: ✓Sourcing Ingredients from reliable suppliers ✓Finding co-manufacturers/co-packers ✓Creating food prototypes using weights and percentages (not tables and teaspoons!) ✓Scaling up so a co packer can easily understand how to manufacture your product ✓Understanding when you may have to compromise your idea in order to ensure you are delivering a safe product to the consumer. ✓Avoiding food safety disasters like microbial growth! The Food Business Tool Kit guides entrepreneurs through the confusing technical issues of formulating your commercial recipe, which is very different from the recipe you are making at home. This book is not about business plans or marketing (there are lots of other resources for that!) This book gets into the nitty gritty, hard to find information related to government regulations, food safety, shelf life testing, how to create a 'formula", and making sure your product can last in a package on the shelf or supermarket refrigerator. It is not possible to find all the information in this book online. Most of it comes directly from my 25 years of experience working in the food industry for large companies like Unilever and Kraft Foods to smaller start-ups that made it big like Plum Organics and Chosen Foods. I am happy to share this information with you in an organized step by step process.

Book Food Product Development

Download or read book Food Product Development written by Richard Earle and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2001-10-09 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Product development, from refining an established product range to developing completely new products, is the lifeblood of the food industry. It is, however, a process fraught with risk, often ending in failure. What are the keys to making the process a success? Based on a wealth of experience gathered over 40 years, Food Product Development provides the answers. After an introductory chapter, the first half of the book considers the four core elements of product development: the overall business strategy which directs product development, the various steps in the product development process itself, the knowledge required to fuel the process and, last but not least, keeping product development focused on consumer needs and aspirations. The second part of the book looks at managing the product development process in practice with four case studies of successful product launches. It also discusses how to evaluate and improve the process to make future product innovation more successful. Filled with examples and practical suggestions, and written by a distinguished team with unrivalled academic and industry expertise, Food Product Development will be an essential guide for R & D and product development staff, and all managers concerned with this key issue throughout the food industry. Mary D. Earle and Richard L. Earle are both Professors Emeritus in Massey University, New Zealand.

Book Food Industry R D

Download or read book Food Industry R D written by Helmut Traitler and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-11-14 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research and development represents a vast spread of topics and can be an arena for controversy. In academia, such controversy may stem from conflicting interpretations of data and subsequent conclusions, the question of who was first to discover a particular finding and whether or not the said finding is of any value to the scientific community. R&D in corporate environments is mostly defined and driven by costs and clearly identified, consumer-focused targets. There is, however, common ground between these two approaches as both strive to maximize knowledge, though for different reasons and in differnt ways. The equipment and scientific rigor may be similar or identical, however their usage, approach and interpretation are different. This book discusses the history and background of today's food industry R&D as seen by consumers, academia and the industry itself, with several chapters dedicated to new and disruptive approaches. A must-read for all professionals in the packaged goods industry as well as students who aspire to contribute to this new industry, forcefully driven by R&D.

Book Low Cost  Low Tech Innovation

Download or read book Low Cost Low Tech Innovation written by Vijay Vyas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like much of SMEs research, innovation studies of small enterprises have commenced later and are less numerous. The focus of such studies remains high-technology enterprises, which continue to attract both academic and popular interest, oblivious to the innovative endeavours of people in traditional low-tech industries. This book attempts to address this imbalance through a comprehensive analysis of innovation in this largely neglected area. Based on case studies of seven small innovative food companies, this book presents an in-depth analysis of innovation in the Scottish food and drinks industry and unravels a lesser-known approach to effective low-cost product innovation, which is simple and economical, yet elegant and successful. Using careful data collection and rigorous statistical testing, the analysis and findings in this book address a wide spectrum of interests: academics in business schools, policy makers in governments and executives and entrepreneurs in food and other low-technology sectors.
