From Recipe to Retail: How OptiFlow Streamlines Product Development and Sales
My company, Calabash Seasoning, set out to bring a unique recipe, One Reach, to market and needed a solution to document every detail required for production and distribution. To meet this need, OptiFlow was developed from the ground up to manage and track every step—from sourcing ingredients and materials to managing suppliers, purchases, and inventory.
As it evolved, OptiFlow grew into a powerful, comprehensive tool that not only supports recipe documentation but also enables the streamlined production and sale of a wide range of products. OptiFlow offers businesses the flexibility to source products locally and internationally, handle packaging, and sell directly to consumers or through major retail channels like Amazon, Costco, Target, and Walmart. It’s a full-scale solution for businesses looking to efficiently manage their operations and expand their market reach.
How OptiFlow Works
Ingredients
Begin by sourcing and documenting each ingredient needed for the recipe. OptiFlow enables you to track ingredient suppliers, costs, and inventory levels, ensuring consistent quality and availability.
Recipe
Build your recipe in OptiFlow by specifying ingredient quantities, preparation steps, and any special instructions. Each recipe is saved with precise details, making it easy to replicate and scale as demand grows.
Product
Once the recipe is finalized, create a product profile that includes packaging, labeling, and pricing details. This step links the recipe to a sellable item, allowing you to track costs and set appropriate pricing strategies for various markets.
Production
With all elements in place, move into production. OptiFlow manages the production workflow, from scheduling batches to tracking materials and work hours, ensuring efficient, cost-effective production and readiness for distribution.
