The Challenge

Our customer needed a partner to quickly launch a full, 16 SKU launch, with three different packaging formats and several active ingredients. Fulfillment of the project’s goals required interaction with the client’s multiple PhDs, as well as adherence to the strictest pet-safety protocols. In addition, all raw materials had to be sourced from vendors that were certified as renewable and sustainable.

The Results

Innovative labs produced and shipped 2.4 million units within 60 days while adhering to the strictest standards. Our customer’s requirements drove us to quickly expand capabilities with new equipment and processes. Within a 12-month period, we ultimately formulated and piloted 15 new products for a successful national launch.
