The BCMPA #outsourcingis campaign has launched!
2025 marks the 25th anniversary of the BCMPA and to celebrate, we’ve launched a campaign that highlights the vital role of outsourcing in helping brands, retailers, and startups bring their products to market.
What does Outsourcing mean to you?
Outsourcing can mean many things, and we want to find out what it means to you. At the BCMPA we know outsourcing isn’t just about services, facilities, or machinery – it’s about empowering businesses to focus on what they do best, while leveraging expert third-party solutions for:
- Manufacturing & Production
- Packing & Supply Chain
- Regulatory Compliance
- Fulfilment & Logistics
Across many industry sectors including Food, Drink, Nutraceuticals, Personal Care & Beauty, Pharmaceuticals, Chemicals, Household, Automotive and Petcare, outsourcing enables brands to scale up, streamline operations, and achieve peace of mind.
We asked our members at the Contract Pack & Fulfilment Show at Packaging Innovations & Empack 2025 to share their views on the key benefits of using third-party manufacturers, packers, and fulfilment services.
This is what they said…
"#outsourcingis Expertise and Solutions"
"#outsourcingis Flexibility, Agility and Speed to Market"
"#outsourcingis Expertise, Speed, Value and Trust"
And from our CEO, Emma Verkaik:
"#outsourcingis... the vital role our industry plays in modern business strategy. In times of economic uncertainty, the role of 3rd party solutions is even more widely accepted as the route to go down."
Join the #outsourcingis Conversation!
Over the next 12 months, we’ll be gathering insights from brands, retailers, industry professionals, and BCMPA members to shape the conversation around outsourcing.
And what greater endorsement than renowned Dragon’s Den investor Peter Jones?
In a 2025 Episode he urged two entrepreneurs to leave their packing to the experts and focus on growing their own business:
"I'd really urge you to go and look for that Co-Packer!"
– Peter Jones, Dragon's Den
Outsourcing is a proven path to success, helping brands, retailers and entrepreneurs save time, cut costs, and scale efficiently for quick growth and speed to market.
