Nuba Health
“I first spoke to Froghop for advice when I was looking in to legal requirements for food labelling and nutritional information, for a new business idea. As the business is online, the official guidance was unclear and Froghop helped me understand my options around voluntary information to be compliant with EU food legislation.
“Once the product was more developed, Froghop worked with me again to put together comprehensive nutritional profiles for all of my meals. Being aimed at the fitness and nutrition industry, the meals required detailed profiles highlighting % of RDA for vitamins and minerals, as well as basic nutritional information.
“Froghop have helped me provide my customers with all the information they need, and set me up with the tools and knowledge I needed to profile recipes myself. I now have the control to adjust recipes and see the effect it has on their nutrition, as well as profiling weekly specials without having to call on consultants.
“I would definitely recommend Froghop for any new food venture!”
