U.S. market entry

Entering the U.S. beverage market.

We help brands navigate the documentation and compliance requirements involved in entering the U.S. beverage market — and coordinate the people and paperwork it takes to get there.

Submit your brand

What’s involved

Depending on the product, this can include:

  • FDA requirements

    The registrations and rules that apply to your product and facility.

  • Food & beverage labeling

    U.S. label format, statement of identity, net quantity and allergen declarations.

  • Ingredient documentation

    Specifications for every ingredient and additive.

  • Nutrition Facts

    A U.S.-format Nutrition Facts panel for each product.

  • Import documentation

    Commercial invoices, packing lists and shipping documents.

  • Customs

    U.S. entry, classification and duties.

  • Product registration

    Where a product or category requires it.

  • Certificates

    Certificates of origin and analysis, and organic, halal or kosher where claimed.

  • Packaging requirements

    Materials, markings and formats accepted in the U.S. market.

  • Supply-chain documentation

    Traceability records from production to U.S. warehouse.

Every product is different. What applies depends on the category, ingredients and packaging — part of our first evaluation is working out what applies to yours. Global Sip coordinates this process; where a product needs specialist legal or regulatory advice, we’ll tell you and help bring the right people in.
