Dear Sir/ Madam, I am highly interested in developing the complete formulation package for your RTD beverage lineup. With a B.Sc. in Food and Nutritional Studies, an HND in Food Technology, and currently reading for an M.Sc. in Food and Nutrition, I pair deep academic knowledge with extensive hands-on industry experience. Crucially, I worked in QA and R&D at Cargills Agrifoods Ltd., one of Sri Lanka’s largest beverage manufacturers. I have direct experience in RTD manufacturing, commercial formula preparation, and shelf-life stability. I know how to achieve absolute microbiological safety while maintaining great taste, color, and mouthfeel at ambient temperatures. What I will deliver for your Mocktail, Dairy/Coffee, and Fruit Juice lines: Formulation Master Sheets: Exact percentage breakdowns, plus strict Brix and pH targets. Stabilization Strategy: Tailored hydrocolloid/emulsifier blends to prevent dairy separation or fruit chunk sedimentation. Processing & Packaging Parameters: Safe thermal directives tailored for manual filling into PET, factoring in FSSAI (India) compliance. (Note: I will provide honest, scientific guidance on the limits of ambient dairy without pasteurization). Pilot Scale-Up: Step-by-step batching instructions for 5 L and 100 L trials. Lab-Ready Protocol: A structured shelf-life testing matrix for your third-party lab. Let's collaborate to bring your beverage concepts safely to market. Warm regards, Janani
