CMTC Helps Food & Beverage Processing Company
Improve Performance with Leadership Training
Torrance, CA – May 24, 2022 – California Manufacturing Technology Consulting® (CMTC) recently delivered leadership training to HPP Food Services to help the company achieve its business objectives.
ICPK Corporation dba HPP Food Services, founded in 2015, is the first toller in Southern California and the first in the U.S. to provide co-packing services for HPP (high-pressure processing) products.

HPP Food Services has 150 employees and $10 million in annual sales.
HPP Food Services was seeking assistance with growing the leadership skills of employees in order to enhance interpersonal communication, team effectiveness, ability to adapt to change, and a continuous improvement mindset. CMTC and HPP Food Services discussed the ways in which a leadership development training program could help HPP Food Services achieve its objectives.

HPP Food Services reported that employees who participated in the leadership training improved both their individual and team skills, enhancing their performance and driving results for the company. The company projects $2 million in increased sales, 20 new employees, and the retainment of 10 employees in the 12 months following the leadership training.
