Turnkey private label snack solutions
Inno Snack Lab partners with retail brands to develop, manufacture, and package snacks, protein bars, and confectionery — from first sample to shelf-ready production.
Built for brands that want to own the shelf
We are a Cape Town-based private label manufacturer helping retailers, founders, and food entrepreneurs bring their snack and confectionery ideas to life. With FSSC 22000 certification, flexible MOQs, and end-to-end capabilities, we make it possible to launch and scale a branded product line without building your own factory.

What we make
Categories where we help retail brands stand out.
Snacks
Cereal, granola and oat bars, granolas and better-for-you snacking formats. Our facility has bar cutting (slab former) as well as semi-automated bar making capabilities for more complex products.
Protein, fruit & energy bars
Cold-pressed and coated bars with custom macros, flavours, and inclusions. We have extrusion capabilities for a wide variety of textures, proteins, and ingredients.
Confectionery
Chocolate-enrobed products, truffles, and indulgent treats for premium positioning. We also offer chocolate moulding for solid, hollow or filled chocolates, as well as chocolate panning, using customer-specified chocolate that we make and refine in-house.
Commodity shelf packaging
Bulk ingredients repacked into retail-ready formats — stand-up pouches, flat bags, and labelled units ready for the shelf. Ideal for grains, nuts, seeds, and dry pantry staples.
Cookies and biscuits
Retail-suited cookies and biscuits — free-from, functional, or simply delicious. We help you land the right texture, flavour, and shelf appeal for your brand.
FSSC 22000 certified
Our facility operates under a certified food safety management system. That means documented controls, regular audits, and a culture of quality that protects your brand as much as your consumers.
Reasonable MOQs
Production runs designed to work for emerging brands and retail pilots, not just multinational volumes.
Retail ready
Pack formats, shelf-life data, and labelling support aligned to South African retail requirements.
