Introduction — Creating Beverages That Stand Out

In today’s highly competitive and fast-changing global beverage market, launching a best-selling product is no easy task.
Take the U.S. as an example: every year, hundreds of new beverages hit the shelves, ranging from teas, fruit drinks, dairy-based creations, and cross-category blends to visually stunning specialty drinks. However, only a few brands and products manage to secure a lasting position in the market, backed by clear market positioning, unique flavor design, and a reliable supply chain.

This is where YUJIE excels.
As a leading OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) and ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) in the global beverage industry, we combine market insights, creative R&D, and large-scale production capabilities to deliver custom beverage formulation and drink product development solutions. We help brands take their ideas from raw materials and recipes to full-scale production and packaging, enabling tea shops, cafés, and dessert businesses worldwide to quickly launch market-ready, competitive beverages.

With years of international experience, YUJIE understands the unique demands and preferences of the U.S. market, while also helping brands successfully expand into Canada, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. We are a trusted private label beverage manufacturer and co-packing partner, providing services in the USA and worldwide.


Understanding Global Beverage Market Trends

Beverage choices are more diverse than ever, from social-media-worthy drinks to convenient ready-to-drink (RTD) products:
