Get a Complete Solution

Working with the wrong business partner can result in partial results - like receiving formulas that can’t be made or creating something you don’t own. At JPG, we provide guidance along every step of the way to assure you’ll achieve the best results.

With us, you’ll get:

Solutions That Work

We bridge the gap between prototype and scale up by creating first-level formulas that work.

A Smooth Handoff

Give you everything you need for a smooth transition to manufacturing and work directly with the coman to get it set up.

Own Your IP

Creating your formula with JPG assures that you’ll own it and won’t need to reverse engineer it if you ever switch comans.

We were one of many chia startups trying to find our way to relevance.  JPG Resources was a great help in guiding us to how we could fight our way to the front of the pack, within 2 years.  As JPG got more deeply involved, they helped improve margins by 50% while simultaneously improving quality. They helped us expand beyond chia into new categories to more broadly define the brand as a platform for health. JPG’s partnership and guidance were one of the many things that fueled our exit to PepsiCo.”
