Experience

We began our Custom Blending Program more than 10 years ago, working with a wide range of businesses to achieve their goals.  As a USA manufacturer we have a range of clientele reaching all across the country.

When you begin the custom blending process you’ll find yourself supported by a team that is dedicated to streamlining your business, whose goal is to provide a top-notch experience from intake to delivery. We don’t rely on automated recordings or communicate through chatbots; you’ll be collaborating with real people in real time. The custom blend team at Spices, Inc. is invested in making our years of experience work for you.

Shifting to bulk production requires that a manufacturing partner provides you with premier service in three crucial ways: Speed, accuracy, and consistency. The team at Spices, Inc. has made a specialty of efficient product turnaround, getting you your quality custom spice blends quickly in order to help you work to your best advantage. Visit the Turnaround Time page to learn what to expect regarding the time needed for your custom blend to move from intake to shipment.

Our product list contains a great many quality spices and herbs to create a wide range of blends, but we don’t carry everything. If you are looking for a specialty ingredient for your custom seasoning that isn’t in our standing inventory, reach out to our custom blend team to inquire about an ingredient search. Our Sourcing Department has years of experience searching out hard-to-find products. We're skilled in finding the best quality and value products available, to help you bring your vision into reality. Specialty products may incur additional costs.
