Same taste. Every batch. Every location.
FISA Lab formulates Mexican flavor and seasoning systems for US food manufacturers, co-packers, grocery chains and food brands. Production runs in an FSSC 22000 certified, FDA-registered plant in Monterrey, with four decades of seasoning manufacturing behind every batch.
03 · Mexico's flavor, to the world
Mexico's flavor.Built for your market.
The problem
Importers want authentic Mexican flavor, but every market asks for its own paperwork, label rules and a supplier that ships the same profile twice.
With FISA
One approved spec, manufactured in Monterrey, with the documents each shipment needs: COA every batch, certificate of origin when the blend qualifies.
Example routes from Monterrey to the United States, Canada and Korea, each with the documents the shipment needs.
What we do
We formulate seasoning, marinade and coating systems for industrial lines. Topical seasonings for snacks. Marinades and rubs for prepared meats and carnicería programs. Systems for processed meats and sauces.
Every system starts from a real regional reference: al pastor from Mexico City, birria from Jalisco, cochinita pibil from Yucatán. Then it gets a locked spec, so the tenth batch matches the first.
Clean label by default. No artificial colors. No MSG. It is how we formulate, not a response to a mandate.
What stays the same, and what changes
Your profile stays. Your line stays. Your process stays. The label gets cleaner, and you run fewer suppliers. Still weighing in-house R&D or a formulation partner? Start with the trade-offs.

Who we work with

We do not sell to consumers, home cooks or students, and we do not supply retail-size quantities.
How we work
