Every year, hundreds of thousands of consumer products are launched, and over 90% of them fail. My mission is to help companies save and earn money thanks to better informed production decisions, based on data derived from early product testing.

I truly believe that the interaction between consumers and producers is vitally important. Genuine feedback from consumers can help to shape the outcome of a final product, and make it a better fit for the market. That’s why contextual sensory testing is a crucial step in forming a sustainable roadmap when developing successful food and drink products
