| “Customized
to meet your specific requirements”
You Are Unique
Merlin views
each client and project as unique. We design an approach to meet your individual project
objectives, timetable and budget. Our staff works as part of your team or
independently through a step-by-step process. Clients tell us our strengths include providing new insight and approaches to difficult problems. They value our hands-on approach and ability to extend their
research and development efforts.
Over the years,
our scientists, researchers, and culinary specialists have learned
how to effectively become part of your company’s development team. Merlin staff can
travel to the client's facilities, plants, co-packers, supplier facilities and consumer
test sites. Clients are welcomed to work in our facility if they wish. We customize our
approach to meet each client’s needs for communication, involvement and control of
the development process.
