Good morning Buddha Baby,

You may find something useful in the SFA's 2022 Co-Manufacturer Resource Guide. It is free to members. SFA is also recently hosted a webinar about working with co-manufacturers, which is also free for members. https://community.specialtyfood.com/store/product/244-technical-review-discussing-your-product-with-a-prospective-co-man/

Here are some tips for finding a small batch co-packer in the NJ, NY and NC area that can do hot fill for acidified sauces:

  1. Use online directories: You can use online directories such as ThomasNet or Makers Row to search for co-packers in your area. These directories provide information about various co-packers, including their services and contact details.

  2. Reach out to trade associations: Consider reaching out to trade associations, such as the Specialty Food Association or the National Restaurant Association, which may have a list of co-packers in your area.

  3. Attend trade shows: Attend trade shows such as the Fancy Food Show or the Natural Products Expo, which can provide an opportunity to meet with co-packers and learn more about their services.

  4. Use search engines: You can also use search engines such as Google or Bing to search for co-packers in your area. Be sure to include keywords such as "hot fill," "acidified sauces," and your location.

When you find potential co-packers, be sure to ask about their experience and certifications in handling acidified products. It's also a good idea to request samples and schedule a visit to their facility to ensure they meet your needs.
