Suppliers

Sourcing and Manufacturing

The Honey Pot Co. has thoroughly vetted and qualified its current network of eight co-manufacturers across the globe. The company has purposefully chosen suppliers with small, medium, and large lines and facilities, allowing the company to quickly scale with the same partner. The Honey Pot Co. has supply agreements in place and renegotiates rates, lead-times, and minimum order quantities with partners based on volumes to continually optimize its stock model parameters. 

Distribution

The Honey Pot Co. contracts with a leading logistical provider to operate a dedicated distribution center in Memphis, TN to support its fulfillment needs across North America. 

Product Development

The Honey Pot Co. has a robust new product development process that is stage gated to ensure product viability in both market fit and economic terms. The company’s ideation process is driven by the needs of their consumer community, incorporates extensive 360-degree consumer research (including whitespace consumer studies), and most importantly, focuses on bringing products to market that address the long-term holistic health of all humans. The company formulates products in collaboration with industry experts and suppliers to ensure that the products strictly adhere to their brand standards of high quality and efficacy and with their retail partners to ensure that the products will resonate with shoppers. The company then clinically tests their formulations (for compliance with regulatory standards) to confirm that the products are safe and efficacious. Lastly, the company validates their supply chain to ensure they can properly manufacture each product in the short and long term without disruption or quality compromises. 

New product development is underpinned by the company’s mission to create products that work together to create a holistic wellness routine and that address previously unmet and unacknowledged human needs. The company continues to develop innovations in its core categories as well as adjacent categories where their brand equity gives them permission to play.
