Helping you create innovative food and drink products

Froghop was founded by Melanie ‘Mel’ Loades in 2014, building on her 20+ years of experience in the food and drink industry. She developed an approach to new product development that delivers innovative, effective products, and Froghop has helped take hundreds of products to market. Sadly, Mel passed away in September 2022. We miss her passion, energy and sense of fun every day. The Froghop team continues to follow her approach and build on the foundations she left. Froghop provides food businesses with the skills, processes and experience to turn ideas into prototypes and successful products.
