The BCMPA – the Association for Contract Manufacturing, Packing, Fulfilment & Logistics – will highlight how outsourcing is the essential ingredient to help ambitious brands accelerate growth and take new products to market at the White & Private Label Expo 2026. Taking place at Excel London on 11-12 November, the event will bring retailers, startups, entrepreneurs, and e-commerce sellers together with manufacturers and supply-chain specialists who can help turn promising ideas into scalable, market-ready products.
Visitors can meet the BCMPA team on stand W124 and learn how the Association’s network of more than 200 members supports businesses from early product development and initial volumes through to manufacturing, packing, storage, e-commerce fulfilment and logistics. With members active across many industry sectors – from food, drink, nutraceuticals, health and beauty, household, petcare and e-commerce and fulfilment – young startups have the choice of experienced outsourcing specialists to drive their business forward.
Emma Verkaik, CEO of the BCMPA, said: “We are always told by visitors to our stand that they wish they had found the BCMPA website and resource earlier, as it is so efficient in putting young brands in touch with outsourcing solutions.”
At an early stage of a product’s development, it is often difficult to understand where to start but choosing the right third-party partner can give brands access to established production capacity, technical knowledge and commercial experience without the cost and complexity of building every capability in-house. With so many global supply chain issues, rising costs and fast-changing consumer demand, it is vital to be supported by the right team that can scale up with the brand as orders grow.
BCMPA members offer a wide range of services to accommodate many different packaging formats that reflect the current trends in the market. Verkaik added: “We are seeing a rise in nutraceutical and wellness brands, which mirrors the growing demand by consumers to pursue healthy options. We have also seen increasing enquiries to fill new drinks into cans, functional drinks as well as non-alcoholic versions. In health and beauty, there is a need for collagen products, and in nutraceuticals, clients are looking for powder and liquid supplements, gummies and capsules with a growing requirement for stick pack formats.”
