Here we go! After 13 years of being the underdog and one of the few independent flavour suppliers, our rapid growth and successes have been recognised.

Our unique approach to natural flavourings (we call it, A Braver Flavour) have now been highlighted by Food Manufacture and shortlisted for Ingredients Manufacturing Company of the Year in the Food Manufacture Excellence Awards 2023.

In an industry full of huge corporate giants, it’s important we stuck to our guns and core values. I.T.S. have remained proudly independent whilst supplying to some of the largest food and drink manufactures and exciting start-up brands.

We couldn’t help for a little celebration and we are now excited to see what the awards bring next year – fingers crossed.

Mike Bagshaw, Owner of I.T.S. states: “When I started I.T.S. from my kitchen table back in 2009, one of my key aims was to inject some more fun into the flavour industry.

We didn’t look at the other successful flavour houses and say “we want to be like them”, we wanted to be ourselves and offer something different. I’m so proud of everything we’ve achieved, and hopefully we can bring home the award in February.”
