The Science
of Taste
Three R&D centers. Three certified flavor chemists. Twenty-four-hour documentation turnaround, and zero debt behind every raw material we buy.
The Reasons
Buyers Stay
R&D Centers
Three R&D centers across Michigan and California house our new product department, staffed by three Certified Flavor Chemists.
Documentation Response
A twenty-four-hour response time on all documentation requests — specs, statements, certificates and declarations.
Debt
Zero debt lets us hold long-term raw material supply through challenging markets, and keep pricing competitive when others cannot.
Minority Owned
Jogue is a minority-owned business, certified by the National Minority Business Development Council.
Certified
Supporting responsible, ethical, and sustainable business practices.
Member
Sedex membership gives customers independent visibility into labour and environmental practices across our supply chain.
Backup Manufacturing
Continuous supply. Multiple plants and a qualified backup site mean your flavors keep shipping if one location is disrupted.
Three States
Michigan, California and Florida put most customers one or two freight zones away.
Custom Formulation
One-of-a-kind formulations developed against your target and held under your specification, with the ability to match any flavor via GC-MS analysis.
Bench Work,
Not Catalog Work
The best flavor on the bench isn’t always the best flavor on the shelf. It has to survive your process, your ingredients and your shelf life, so that’s where we test it.
Our chemists work in the application, not just in solution. Across three R&D centers in Michigan and California we hold test kitchens, pilot equipment and GC-MS analysis alongside the bench, so a submission is evaluated the way you will actually make it — baked, retorted, frozen, pasteurized, or pumped through a filler at speed.
Feedback goes straight to the chemist who made the sample. There is no account layer between you and the person holding the pipette.
Full-Service,
Start to Finish
From the first idea to the final paperwork, every flavor is researched, developed, matched, tested, verified and documented. We handle every step.
Marketing Support
Trend Reports, flavor-kit concepts and category insight you can take into your own commercialization meetings.
R&D Expertise
Flavor chemists and applications specialists working in your matrix, with pilot equipment to prove it before you scale.
Flavor Matching
GC-MS analysis to reverse-engineer a target, whether it is a competitor's product or a discontinued formula you need back.
Sensory
Trained descriptive panels and consumer testing built into the development brief so preference data arrives with the sample.
Quality
Incoming raw-material testing, in-process checks, retained samples and full lot traceability across all five facilities.
Documentation Support
Spec sheets, allergen statements, nutritionals, country-of-origin and GMO declarations — assembled to your regulatory team's format, inside twenty-four hours.
Four Things We
Hold Ourselves To
Quality
Our facilities operate under rigorous quality and food safety standards, including SQF 2000 Code Level 3 certification through the Safe Quality Food Institute.
Price
We maximize efficiency through automation, optimized resource use, and strategic sourcing to maintain highly competitive costs.
Adaptability
Smaller MOQs, available raw materials, short lead times and a debt-free operation allow us to respond quickly to customer needs.
Logistics
We operate 5 manufacturing facilities across the U.S.A. to optimize lead times, improve supply chain flexibility, and support consistent product availability.
Let's Build It Together
The reformulation nobody wants. The cost-down that can't taste like a cost-down. The clean-label swap on a legacy SKU. That is the work we are built for.
