Beverage Industry Consulting

Beverage expertise that moves the needle.

UBCB Group is a beverage industry consultancy helping restaurants, cafés, chains and retail brands build drink programs and products that customers love — and that make money.

Who We Help

Built for the businesses that serve the drinks.

From single-location cafés to national chains and emerging beverage brands, we bring hands-on industry experience to every engagement.

Restaurants & Chains

Build a beverage menu that lifts check averages, runs smoothly at peak, and stays consistent across every location.

Cafés & Coffee Shops

From espresso program design to cold brew and specialty menus, we help independents and growing groups compete on quality and margin.

Beverage Brands

Taking a drink from idea to shelf — or from local to national and international? We guide the product, the partners and the path to market.

Services

How we help beverage businesses grow.

Practical, experience-based support across the full beverage journey — from the menu board to the store shelf.

Foodservice Beverage Programs

Menu development, coffee and tea programs, equipment and dispensing solutions, supplier sourcing, recipe standardization, cost and margin analysis, and staff training.

Product Development

Concept and positioning, formulation, co-packer and ingredient sourcing, packaging, shelf-life and labelling — everything it takes to turn a great idea into a retail-ready product.

Go-to-Market & Growth

Sales strategy, pricing, distributor and retail listings, and channel planning. For brands ready to expand, we open doors in Canada, the Middle East, Asia, the UK and Europe.

Coffee Expertise

Sourcing and roasting partners, espresso and brewing programs, cold brew and concentrates, and equipment. Coffee is where our roots run deepest.

Green Coffee Financing

Flexible financing options for green coffee purchases, so roasters and coffee brands can secure quality lots, buy at the right time and protect cash flow between purchase and sale.

Coffee Spotlight

Coffee is in our DNA.

Coffee is the heart of most beverage menus — and one of the hardest things to get right. Our team has built coffee programs, developed coffee products and worked with the equipment that serves them. Whether you’re launching a café, fixing an inconsistent espresso program or developing a ready-to-drink coffee, we’ve been there.
