Testimonials

-Joel

Nomsi

Essential Foods Group is like a breath of fresh air. Accessible, knowledgeable, and attentive.  

We are an emerging beverage brand, and they provided us with invaluable feedback as we went through a product packaging redesign. We were most impressed by their personal integrity. For example, we had a few opportunities to gain placement in outlets where they would have personally benefited, but advised against it, because it would not have been good for the long-term health of the brand. Now, that is what I call being a true partner! I would highly recommend them.

-Oscar

Fabbri

Essentials Foods Group is exactly the kind of brokers that better suite the Fabbri Brand and product portfolio. We are a over 110+ years old Italian family company that still believes in people as a true driver of business growth. We have partnered with EFG because their approach to business is right in line with our mission, values, commitment and beliefs.

They always provide solid feedback and are a pleasure to work with. Essential Foods Group is just that, essential for any brand!
