Interested in having your own line of iced teas or adding to your current product line without the hassles associated with formulating a new product? Private labeled (sometimes erroneously called co-packed) products from Clover Farms could be the perfect solution.
Clover Farms, in Reading, PA, was established in the rich, rolling hills of Pennsylvania Dutch dairy country in 1937. Today, we are the largest privately owned dairy company in PA.
Our uncompromising quality can be found in every milk, tea, juice, or other fluid or dairy product we produce, package or deliver. Our tradition of quality, freshness and flavor is embodied in each and every refreshment that bears our name.
Many of our products, such as the extremely popular line of Clover Farms Icy Tea, which are available in a wide range of flavors, can be private labeled for your company.
With our in-house manufacturing and packaging abilities, the Clover Farms team can recommend varieties, support design and packaging options, and manage your distribution requirements.
For many of our supermarket, convenience store and retail chain customers, private label Clover Farms beverages represent some of the best-selling products in their stores.
Co-Packing vs. Private Labeling
Many people use the terms “co-packing” and “private labeling” interchangeably. They are not the same, however, and there are some significant differences between them.
Co-Packing
Co-packing refers to contract packing, contract packaging, or contract manufacturing. In other words, a manufacturer undertakes the task of manufacturing, packaging and labeling products for its clients using the client’s proprietary formula(s).
Some co-packers perform limited operations, with all ingredients provided by the client. Others provide purchasing services for ingredients, as well as shipping and logistics operations.
In either scenario, the client retains ownership of their proprietary formulas and the manufacturer agrees not to produce it for another client or share it without permission. Co-packing fees vary from project to project.
***Clover Farms does not offer co-packing. If you would prefer to private label the beverages we currently offer or create a custom formula for private labeling, we would be delighted to help!***
Private Labeling
Private labeling refers to products manufactured by one company (e.g., Clover Farms Icy Teas) for sale under another company’s private label/brand.
In some cases, an exclusive formula can be created for you, or our current formula can be adjusted to meet your needs. Under a private label agreement, Clover Farms procures the ingredients and manufactures the product(s) while retaining ownership of the Icy Tea formula.
If you do not have the in-house equipment, workforce, or expertise to develop, manufacture, package and distribute your own proprietary iced teas, private label iced teas from Clover Farms are an excellent alternative.
When considering co-packed or private labeled iced teas, Clover Farms offers a large selection of products that can be private labeled. With our in-house manufacturing and packaging capabilities, we can recommend varieties and flavors, support design and packaging options, and manage your distribution requirements.
