Process

Our Methodology

A structured, four-step approach to taking your product from concept to shelf.

01

Brief & Specification

Defining technical targets, cost-in-use constraints, and sensory requirements.

02

Lab Development

Prototyping, ingredient sourcing, and iterative trials to perfect the formula.

03

Pilot & Scale-Up

Adapting the formula for pilot runs and finalizing manufacturing SOPs.

04

Launch Support

Final documentation, nutritional analysis, and handover to production teams.

Comprehensive Solutions

From initial concept to final compliance, we provide end-to-end support for your product development journey.

Product Formulation

Specialized development of powdered beverages, premixes, bakery items, and vitamin fortification profiles tailored to specific nutritional targets.

Phase 1

Concept & Briefing: Defining technical targets, cost-in-use constraints, and sensory requirements.

Phase 2

Lab Development: Prototyping, ingredient sourcing, and iterative trials to perfect the formula.

Phase 3

Scale-Up: Adapting the formula for pilot runs and finalizing manufacturing SOPs.

Phase 4

Launch Support: Final documentation, nutritional analysis, and handover to production teams.

Scale-Up & Tech Transfer

Seamless transition from lab prototypes to full-scale factory production. We optimize processes for industrial machinery and batch consistency.

Step 1

Process Audit: Reviewing existing equipment and production lines for compatibility.

Step 2

Pilot Runs: Testing the formula at a commercial scale to identify bottlenecks.

Step 3

Optimization: Fine-tuning parameters for speed, yield, and quality control.

Step 4

Full Production: Handover with detailed Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).

Regulatory Compliance

Focusing exclusively on Product Labeling and Claims. We ensure your packaging meets all SANS R638 requirements, including accurate nutritional panels, allergen declarations, and compliant ingredient lists.

Stage 1

Label Verification: Auditing current labels against SANS R638 regulations for accuracy and completeness.

Stage 2

Claims Assessment: Validating health and nutritional claims to ensure they are substantiated and legally permissible.

Stage 3

Nutritional Analysis: Conducting precise testing to verify nutritional panel data and fortification levels.

Stage 4

Final Approval: Providing certified compliant label artwork ready for print and distribution.

Who We Are

Technical Rigor, Real Manufacturing Constraints

Kaveur Group was founded to give South African FMCG manufacturers direct access to hands-on food science expertise, without the overhead of building an in-house R&D function.

Our team brings food science expertise built on a BSc in Food Science and Technology, with a background spanning product development, operations, quality, and regulatory affairs within FMCG and ingredient solution environments.

We specialise in categories that demand precision: beverage powders, fortification premixes, sweetener blends, bakery premixes and improvers, instant cereals, confectionery mixes, coffee creamers, and non-dairy functional and stabiliser blends. Whether you need a formula built from a blank page, a lab prototype scaled to full production, or a product audited for SANS R638 and R146 compliance before it reaches shelf, we bring the technical rigor to get it right the first time.

Every engagement is confidential. Every recommendation is grounded in real manufacturing constraints, not theory.
