Key Terms

co-packer, ready to drink
2 terms
co-packer technical
"Union Grove Distillery looks forward to continuing its relationship as a co-packer for DBI"
A co-packer is an outside company that makes, fills, labels and packages physical products for a brand rather than the brand doing it itself — think of it as a hired kitchen that cooks and plates a restaurant’s recipes. For investors, co-packers matter because they shape production costs, speed to market, product quality and supply-chain risk: using them can let a business scale without big factory spending but creates dependency that can affect sales and profit margins.
ready to drink technical
"DBI also offers several ready to drink (RTD) beverages in an array of flavors"
A ready to drink product is a pre-mixed, packaged beverage sold for immediate consumption without any preparation, like a bottled coffee or canned cocktail you can pick up and drink straight away. For investors it matters because these products compete on convenience, packaging, shelf life and distribution—factors that drive sales volume, pricing power and inventory costs much like a grab-and-go sandwich does for food retailers.
