Food & Beverage

With experience across the food and drink supply chain, we understand the challenges you face. Partner with us to protect your interests and gain a competitive advantage.

Overview

Successful businesses are supported by strong partnerships. That’s why we’re more than advisors, we are a “critical friend”, aligning ourselves to our clients’ needs, acting as an extension of your team rather than as outside advisors.

The RPC food and drink group’s expertise spans product development, IP protection, regulatory matters, commercial contracts, advertising, acquisitions, risk management, VAT, and customs and excise, giving you the confidence to innovate and achieve your business goals - from manufacturing, through the supply chain, to retail.

Our Tier 1 ranked Commercial Contracts team is renowned for its expertise in manufacturing and supply and distribution contracts, licensing arrangements and sponsorship deals. Couple this with our dedicated regulatory and product liability practice, our offering is tailor-made to support the food and beverage industry.

Our food and drink lawyers also have significant experience working with regulators, supporting lobbying campaigns and industry-wide initiatives, and working closely with our reputation management team to manage risk for our clients in the sector.

The food and beverage sector never stands still, which is why sharing market intelligence is at the heart of our offering, using our rich experience and knowledge to deliver competitive advantages to our clients, helping them break into new markets and open new revenue streams.
