About Us
Batchbase was created to simplify the most complex parts of food manufacturing, so manufacturers can focus on creating, growing, and scaling with confidence.
Our Story
Batchbase was born from the shared frustration of food industry professionals, compliance officers, and software engineers who saw the inefficiencies plaguing small to mid-sized food manufacturers, with endless spreadsheets, missed compliance updates, manual costing errors, and slow labelling processes.
We knew there had to be a better way.
So, we built it.

A note from our founder
Batchbase was founded by Chris Blyth, who brought his background in investment banking and a career spent working with companies scaling their business. Chris believes that having robust intelligence is at the heart of any successful growth endeavour. But just as crucial is having a clear purpose and a commitment to looking after customers, suppliers, and employees. This philosophy is the foundation of Batchbase – providing the tools for growth while championing a rewarding journey for everyone involved.
