INTELLIGENT INNOVATION
In 2003 Norwich Beverage President, Allyn Brown, was looking for a co-packer for his new to the market Black Currant Juice “Currant Affair”. Unable to find a good local co-packer, he built his own plant on his 300 acre farm. As the co-packing business started to come his way, the original plant became too small and in 2015 everything was moved to a new 26,000 sqft facility and Norwich Beverage was formed. “Currant Affair” continues to be a customer of Norwich Beverage. The plant is far from reaching its capacity and new production lines and equipment are continuously being added to ensure that the plant has the most advanced processing and packaging equipment in the industry.
PARTNERSHIPS
Fueling this growth has been our co-packing efforts with several national brands but also our willingness to work with smaller brands and startups. We have the capability to do small test runs along with having smaller minimum runs compared to the larger co-packers. We are also conveniently located in Connecticut which makes for lessor transportation cost throughout the northeast corridor.
