A selective beverage co-manufacturing partner for early and growth-stage brands. One relationship from your first 300-gallon run to your first national pallet. One invoice. No handoffs.
Apply to Work With UsSmall on purpose. High attention, clear accountability, and no handoffs to anyone.
Send a note with your brand, your stage, and where you are stuck. No deck required.
We assess stage, category, volume trajectory, and whether our infrastructure suits where you are going.
Each cohort runs five to eight brands. Every partner gets our full attention.
One partner from your first run to national scale. One contact. A team that has lived what you are building.
We built a tiered production network so your brand never has to outgrow its manufacturing partner. Start in Framingham. Go national through Milwaukee. RCB coordinates everything and bills through one relationship.
This is where early-stage brands come to prove the concept. Low minimums that respect where you actually are. Full compliance from day one. R&D that validates before you produce.
For brands that have broken through regionally and are ready to run national volume. Coordinated and billed entirely through your single RCB relationship. Enterprise capacity without enterprise complexity.
Most co-packers won't talk to you until you have volume. We built the Beverage Studio for the brands that aren't there yet, and have every intention of getting there. Limited spots. High touch. No shortcuts.
We work with a small number of Studio brands each year. The ones we choose get real attention, from operators who have built brands rather than just filled orders. When you're ready to scale, you already know exactly where you're going.
Start at 300 gallons. Ship your first national pallet. Never change your co-packer. No re-qualifying, no new audits, no starting over.
One contract, one point of contact, one invoice. Logistics, sourcing, and production coordination across the network is our problem, not yours.
We have sat in your seat. We understand early-stage cash flow, retail timelines, and what it takes to get product to shelf. Small runs are not afterthoughts here.
DSP, Brewer's Notice, Winery, and Wine Blender permits. Alcohol and non-alcohol. Covered from day one, with no expensive workarounds.
Sensory evaluation, benchmarking, profile matching. We stress-test your formula before a single can goes down the line.
Every run comes out shelf-ready. Cartons, trays, case boxes, e-commerce pack-out. Production floor to store shelf with zero rework.
Most co-packers hand you a compliance checklist and wish you luck. We are already permitted. You are covered from run one.
Andrew Guard co-founded Culture Pop Soda, spent years inside one of the most iconic founder-built beverage companies in New England, then built his own brand, Winch and Pulley, from the ground up. He has been on every side of the table this industry has.
The gaps in beverage co-packing were personal. Small brands treated as afterthoughts. Minimums that blocked early launches. A disconnect between what founders needed and what the industry offered. So he built the thing he wished had existed.
RCB is not a commodity processor. It is a selective partner. We take a small cohort of brands at a time because attention is finite and momentum is everything.
Solving problems is the superpower. Simple brands win. Hustle beats hype. Every time.
The plant is built for more volume than it currently runs. We're adding the people who will close that gap. Small team, wide scope, decisions that stick.
You run the plant. Production scheduling across every product and every client. Quality. TTB compliance. Materials. The production team. And the physical plant of the taproom. You report directly to the CEO.
Hands on the equipment every day. Brewhouse and cellar support, running the canning line, kegging, packaging, sanitation, and keeping materials moving. If you want to learn beverage manufacturing from the floor up, this is the seat.
Own financial operations for a real manufacturing company. Not data entry, ownership. Inventory and cost accounting, job costing by production run, true margin by SKU and by client, and a weekly cash picture we can make decisions from.
Send a resume and a short note to cheers@rightcoast.co. Skip the cover letter template. Three honest paragraphs is better. Right Coast Brands is an equal opportunity employer.
We are selective about who we partner with because attention is finite and momentum is everything. We review every application personally and respond within 48 hours.
No pitch deck required.
