Cannot see what you need?
The range above is what we supply most often. Our sourcing network reaches a good deal further, across the UK, Europe, the Americas, Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
Tell us the specification, the volume and the format you need. If it exists and it meets your standard, we will find it, qualify the producer and quote it properly rather than guessing.
- Specification-led sourcing, not a catalogue search
- Producers qualified before anything is quoted
- Samples arranged where a trial run is needed
- Honest answers when a requirement is not realistic
More than a delivery note
The ingredient is the easy part. What makes a supplier worth keeping is everything around it.
Formats that suit your line
From 25kg sacks through to full loads, in the liquid or powder format your process is set up for, so you are not decanting or paying to store what you cannot use yet.
Documentation with every load
Specifications, certificates and batch coding supplied as standard, so your quality team and your auditors get what they need without having to chase us for it.
Delivery to your window
Scheduled around your production, not our order book, with early warning when a market is moving so a shortage does not become your problem.
Buying ingredients from Tenacity
What volumes do you supply?
From pallet quantities through to full loads, as one-off orders or scheduled contracts. Tell us your volumes and production schedule and we will recommend the most cost-effective format and delivery pattern.
Can you supply ingredients that are not listed here?
Yes. The listed range is what we supply most often, not the limit of what we can source. Send us the specification and the volume and we will come back on availability, lead time and price.
Do you provide specifications and certificates?
Yes. Stock comes from certified producers, is batch coded, and ships with the specifications and documentation your quality team and auditors need.
Can you help if we are reformulating?
Yes. Choosing the right ingredient is often the first decision in reformulation or new product development. We can source samples, compare specifications and tell you where a substitution works.
Tell us what you use and we will quote it
Send us the ingredient, the volume and the format. We will come back with pricing, availability and lead times, plus an honest view on where we can improve on your current supply.
