Happy Customers
“S86 is not like any other ingredient broker and I don’t think that’s even the right phrasing. They’re more of an ingredients partner, they act as a true extension of our sourcing and procurement team, working in a much more strategic and long term oriented way than “traditional” brokers which seem to have immediate order incentives only in mind.”
