Why You Should Choose RL Food Testing Lab

Owning a Food Business: We’ve Been There

Whether it’s navigating the tax code, managing vendor relationships or calling on food retailers, the owners of RL Food Testing Laboratory have been there. We were once food manufacturers and have a first-hand understanding of the ins and outs of the business. We know how exciting (and a bit scary) starting a food business can be – especially given the uncertainty of the marketplace. We know that retailer deadlines and demands have tight timelines and no room for error. We also know what food retailers’ expectations are and how you can best prepare yourself and your company to sell to them. We know, because we lived it.

We Simplify Food Science

We take the time to talk to you about your project and learn what kind of testing you need based on your goals.  Sometimes, we can save you time and money by running pre-tests to determine if your product will pass a more expensive test.   We also explain your results and work with you on the next steps you may want to take in order to get the product to market efficiently and safely.

We Share Your Sense of Urgency

We can remember a time when we had only two weeks to prepare for a line review. We offer fast turn-around in 2-3 days. We offer rush service (24 hours) for an additional $100 fee.  Need accelerated shelf life done?  No problem.  Our team of food scientists and work with you to get you the right results quickly.

A lot of our customers are running their business as a side job – we know that nights and weekends are the only time you can take care of your company needs. For that reason, we are here for you 7 days a week should you need to contact us.
