Who we are
Reducing complexity, risk and cost in the food value chain
CBS was born out of a need to reduce complexity, risk and cost in manufacturing for one of our key customers. Together we built a contract blending manufacturer with shareholders directly involved in the day-to-day running of the business.
Today we blend sweet and savoury products for leading FMCG and Quick Service Restaurant brands through our partnership with CoSo, a company of PortionPack Group.
