In 2009, Erin Meagher, then a high school business teacher, decided to follow her own mentorship and establish Beneficial Blends, LLC. Erin wanted to make a difference in people’s lives and saw the desire for truly organic ‘Beneficial for You’ products. Erin launched the company’s first product, organic coconut oil, under the Kelapo® brand according to the company’s 4 Diamond Approach, which starts with ‘Beneficial for You’ product and focuses on quality, transparency, and social impact. These attributes serve as the company’s roadmap to ensure high standards within its business and manufacturing practices.
A decade later, Beneficial Blends has become the industry leading, fastest growing oil company in the US, while operating a fully integrated manufacturing facility, with top certifications across food, beverage, dietary supplements, cosmetics, and home goods. The company’s 80,000 square foot facility maintains an SQF Level III rating, a FLDBPR cosmetics permit, and an FDA compliant facility, while holding USDA Certified Organic, Kosher, and EPA Certifications – setting the benchmark for quality in the industry.
Beneficial Blends is proudly recognized, by the State of Florida, as a Woman-Owned Small Business. Additionally, Beneficial Blends is registered through the US Government’s SAM system for federal contracting.
