Hello Spicy Empire!
Happy New Years! I hope you had a eventful holidays whether that’s spending time with your loved ones or going on vacay and recharge.
Our team spent the entire holidays working hard to make sure everyone’s orders got filled on time. I know we had a lot of hiccups from the overwhelming demand and I’m glad to say that we’ve finally caught up with our orders.
I’m also excited to share that our manufacturing facility is officially GFSI certified (Global Food Safety Initiative). This is the most rigorous food safety certification recognized at the international level. You may have heard many companies brag about being GMP certified (Good Manufacturing Practice) - a cheaper certification that shows your facility is clean and employees are trained - often the prerequisite for the GFSI. The GFSI is more expensive and compasses supply chain integration, ingredient audit traill, retailer requirements, and continuous improvement - they even tested the Ph levels and viscosity of our product.
This is a big milestone as it brings us one step closer to making the blameless product that this community deserves - on top of the clinical studies, HSA/FSA, and USDA organic avocado oil. There will be more exciting product updates for 2026 so stay tuned and celebrate this victory with us!
In other news:
Redbloom has grown so quickly over the years I haven’t had the time to do any pop ups, and I really missed connecting with our community in person. So this weekend we are heading back to Maum Market for their Lunar New Year event!
