Since 2019, Agilery managed successfully more than 120 innovation projects. Our Industry Network of manufacturers and suppliers grows with each new mapping assignment and reached already multiple thousands of data entries. Our goal is to bring transparency into the highly fragmented sector by creating the digital backbone of food contract manufacturing in Europe.
Small-batch manufacturers often don’t offer their services publicly. They are like small hidden pearls for all food innovators. At Agilery we put an extra effort in finding and onboarding them into our ecosystem and database.
Agilery is fully independent and has no special arrangements with any manufacturer or supplier. We keep it on purpose this way to be always able to build the most optimal “best of breed” supply chain setups without “red tape” limitations!
