Our Strict Sourcing Standards

At Foodynamics, we are dedicated to maintaining the highest quality in our products, reflected in our rigorous sourcing policies:

  1. Exclusively USDA and FDA Inspected Products: We strictly use products that have passed the stringent inspections of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This ensures that every item we use adheres to the highest standards of quality and safety.
  2. Human Distributors Only: All our products are sourced from reputable human distributors. This approach allows us to ensure a higher level of quality control and ethical practices in our supply chain.
  3. No Use of 3D/4D Sources or Rendered Products: Our facility is committed to maintaining the integrity of our products. We do not allow the use of 3D or 4D sources, rendered products, or any materials considered inedible for human consumption.
  4. Flexibility in Sourcing: Understanding our clients’ diverse needs, we offer the option to either select from our carefully vetted sources or to bring in your own. This flexibility allows us to cater to specific preferences and requirements.

By upholding these stringent sourcing policies, we ensure that our products not only meet but exceed industry standards, guaranteeing the best for our clients.

CRITICAL PACKAGING NOTE

If you are creating your own bags or packaging, please keep in mind the following:

1.) Ensure compatibility between your product and the packaging by consulting with us. For instance, packaging capacities are often calculated in liquid ounces, but the volume occupied by different materials can vary significantly. Three ounces of freeze-dried beef liver will occupy a different amount of space compared to three ounces of water, and similarly, three ounces of salmon will differ in volume from three ounces of beef liver.

2.) It’s crucial to discuss the content that will be printed on your labels or bags with us. This ensures that all information is accurate and compliant with necessary guidelines.
