Who can create a Manufacturing Partner profile on Surch?

Surch is built for food and beverage companies that manufacture, process, pack or prepare products for other businesses, including co-packers, co-manufacturers, contract manufacturers, private and white label manufacturers, toll processors, contract packagers, repackers and specialty processors.

Do I need to manufacture my own branded products to join?

No. You don’t need to sell products under your own brand. Your Surch profile can focus on the manufacturing, processing, packaging and other capabilities you provide to brands, retailers and food companies.

What manufacturing capabilities can I showcase?

You can showcase the information companies need to understand what your facility can do, including the products you manufacture, production processes, packaging capabilities, certifications, specialties and additional services such as R&D, formulation, scale-up or private label production.

How will food companies find my manufacturing business?

Surch is designed to help companies search beyond a manufacturer’s name. Buyers can discover manufacturing partners based on the requirements that matter to their project, such as product category, manufacturing type, processes, packaging capabilities, certifications, location and other relevant capabilities.

Can I list multiple facilities and different capabilities for each location?

If your company operates more than one facility, your profile can identify your locations and the capabilities associated with your manufacturing operation, helping potential customers better understand where and how you can support their project.

Can I indicate whether I’m accepting new projects or have minimum production requirements?

Manufacturing fit matters. Surch can help you communicate important project requirements upfront, such as whether you’re accepting new opportunities, the production scale you support and any minimum requirements you choose to share, helping reduce inquiries that aren’t a good fit.

How do potential customers contact me?

Interested companies can connect directly with your business through Surch. You stay in control of the conversation and can discuss project requirements, capabilities, pricing and next steps directly with the potential customer.

Does Surch take a commission on projects or manufacturing business?

No. Surch helps companies discover and connect with manufacturing partners, but we do not take a commission on the business you generate. Your customer relationships and commercial agreements remain between you and your customer.
