My visit to SF | UK contract manufacturer in February 2025.
Before this, Iâd visited a number of manufacturing facilities. Some were good, some were impressive on the surface, but none quite aligned with the standard I had in mind for Prerun.
From the beginning, I knew this wasnât going to be a quick-win product. I wasnât looking to launch as fast as possible or take shortcuts to get something out into the world. I wanted to create something runners could genuinely trust, and I was prepared to be patient while I found the right partner to help make that happen.
This visit felt different.
What followed from this meeting would eventually become Prerun. The product now being ordered every day by runners across the country started right here.
Behind every pouch is a huge amount of work that most people never see. The sourcing of ingredients, the manufacturing processes, the quality controls, the testing, the compliance requirements. Getting those things right mattered just as much as creating a product that worked.
For me, there was never any compromise.
High-quality ingredients. Exceptional manufacturing standards. Complete confidence in whatâs inside every serving.
Anything less wasnât an option.
