Why Meet Cibus Nexum? 

Most outsourcing projects don't fail on technology; they fail on fit, governance and risk control. Timelines slip, quality incidents hit reputations, or costs creep up.

At Cibus Nexum, we use our FoodFlow approach to balance speed and risk:

  • Fast, structured partner search instead of ad-hoc matchmaking

  • Clear requirements, validation steps and QA gates

  • Governance that protects brand, margin and reputation

If you're looking to scale products, secure resilient capacity, or plug new ingredients into European manufacturing networks, Fi Europe is the right moment to explore how we can help.

How We Work (FoodFlow in 4 steps) 

Design → Find → Onboard → Launch 

No factories. No hidden commissions. Just objective partner matching and hands-on execution to first production and beyond.

Can Cibus Nexum Help You? 

Retailers & Brands (incl. private label and scale-ups)

You want speed-to-shelf without betting your brand on an unproven partner. We help you expand private label or scale new products with validated co-manufacturers, clear agreements, and a controlled route from pilot to full scale-so you stay asset-light, but not risk-heavy.

Ingredient Developers & Innovators

You're bringing new ingredients, technologies or upcycled streams to market and need reliable production pathways. We help you find and onboard co-manufacturers who can handle your process, claims and regulatory context, especially for plant-based, better-for-you, and sustainable concepts.

Co-Manufacturers

You invest in capacity, quality and digitalization, but need the right kind of projects to fill your lines. We help you position your capabilities, fit into international value chains and build long-term, mutually beneficial relationships with brands and ingredient owners, without compromising our independence.

Visit Our Stand to Discuss...

  • Outsourcing & Partner Selection
    Objective shortlists, due diligence, and agreements that protect IP, quality, service levels and cost-whether you're outsourcing for the first time or rethinking your network.

  • Scalability & Process Validation
    From lab/pilot to first industrial runs: trial design, line fit, yields, COGS sensitivities, QA gates and run-at-rate readiness, so you don't "discover" problems during launch.

  • Sustainability & Compliance
    Align partners with your sustainability targets and regulatory requirements (e.g. claims, packaging, audits, traceability) without adding unnecessary delays.

  • Launch Governance
    Onboarding playbooks, KPIs and continuous improvement once you're live, so co-manufacturing becomes a strategic asset instead of a constant firefight.
