CAROL STREAM, Ill., July 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- As we talk to startups and emerging brands throughout the food and beverage manufacturing space, arguably the most significant hurdle is figuring out how to get production scaled up—how to find a co-manufacturer or co-packer willing to work with them or how to find the capital to equip their own production lines before they've established a solid customer base.

Key Points: 
  • A key factor in making everything work has been the startup's ability to test out which equipment will work best for its jackfruit-based jerky recipe with rental agreements through Frain Industries.
  • Filling in those gaps has been made a whole lot easier with rental equipment from Frain Industries.
  • Two key pieces of equipment that Jack & Friends needed to complete the manufacturing line at the co-man were a kettle and a slicer.
  • Obviously, if it would work, then there'd be no need to bring in other pieces of equipment," Kwong says.
