short distance to travel from farm to the plant
helps keep Suntado's carbon footprint low.
" Anytime you can process milk from the
cow to the package within 24 hours, you make
a superior product that enhances a brand or
private label, " Nichols said.
Suntado offers a variety of dairy products,
including plain 1% and 2% milk, lactose-free
varieties, and flavors such as chocolate,
strawberry and vanilla. Additionally, Suntado
can produce half and half, creamers, cold
brew coffee, heavy whipping cream, ready-todrink
(RTD) beverages, as well as plant-based
beverages.
Unlike many co-manufacturers, Suntado
is not producing its own branded product; the
facility instead enables retailers and national
brands to create private label beverage
products. Nichols said the company strives to
ensure that customers can be fully confident
that the contents and labeling on the carton
are accurate.
Suntado is QAI certified, organic
certified and kosher certified, which ensures
the company maintains stringent food
safety requirements.
Nichols said Suntado takes protecting the
brand integrity of their customers very seriously.
" We call our customers our partners,
because they really are, " Nichols said. " What our
brand partners and private label partners need
from us is to have full food safety certification.
In an effort to protect the brand, they want to
ensure that we have all the proper certifications
for their products. "
