Our Team

Your Team For Every Run

200+ specialists across production, quality, R&D, operations, and customer success — all under one roof in Spanish Fork, Utah.

Intro

Who We Are

Manufacturing quality at scale doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because the right people show up every day with the same standards your brand depends on.

WB Blends is a team of 200+ built around four values: teamwork, partnership, transparency, and quality. Every department — from the production floor to customer success — operates with those values as the baseline.

Operations

How Our Team Is Structured

Production

The backbone of the operation. Our production team runs encapsulation, blending, liquid manufacturing, bottling, and packaging across our three-facility campus — handling up to 3,000,000 capsule bottles, 600,000 powder jars, and 350,000 liquid bottles per month.

Quality Assurance

10% of our team works exclusively in quality, not borrowed from production when an audit comes around. They oversee in-house lab testing on every finished lot, manage finished product documentation, and maintain the certification standards our partners depend on.

R&D

Our in-house R&D team handles formulation, custom flavor development, and pilot runs — in the same building as production. Faster iteration, tighter handoffs, and fewer surprises when a formula hits full-scale manufacturing.

Customer Success

Your direct line into WB Blends. Customer success manages your open orders, sends weekly Friday status reports, coordinates your FPS documentation, and ensures your questions get answered within one business day.

Sales Team

Your first point of contact. Sales scopes your project, matches your format and volume to the right line, and turns around preliminary quotes in 5-6 business days.
