Proper Beverage Co.

ABOUT

Our Mission

Helping Small and Mid-Size Brands grow the Proper Way

We bought Proper Soda Co. in 2018 to establish a beverage brand that cared about quality and people in equal measure. But it didn’t take long for us to see an opportunity within the industry. Most co-packers were focused on big-name brands, leaving small and mid-size companies to struggle finding partners who truly listened, cared and communicated.

So, we rolled up our sleeves and decided to become the co-packer we needed. With one machine and a lot of determination, we began producing our own drinks. Once we got the hang of it, we were able to offer services to other brands within the West Michigan community. Word spread quickly, one project led to another, and before we knew it, co-packing became what we loved doing.

In 2019, we made it official and shifted our full focus to co-packing and became the Proper Beverage Co. you know today. Our mission is clear: to give small to mid-size and startup brands the support they deserve. We provide customer service and quality standards that match their ambitions, not just their size, while maintaining the creative integrity that sets their products apart. That’s the Proper difference.

For us, the “co-” in co-packing really means something. We believe in working with our clients. Every brand that walks through our doors is a partner, and we take pride in offering flexibility, creativity, and open communication every step of the way. Whether it’s alcoholic beverages, mocktails, sodas, energy drinks, or better-for-you options, we have the versatility and equipment to bring a wide range of products to life.

We’ve invested in American-made machinery, not just because it’s reliable, but because it aligns with our belief in doing things the proper way. And as a proud West Michigan company, we’re grateful for the community that’s supported us, guided us, and helped us grow from a single machine to a trusted production partner.

Today, Proper Beverage Co. is more than a co-packer. We’re collaborators, problem-solvers, and people who care about helping great brands grow.
