About Steve Quinn

I have spent my career in the food and beverage industry, mostly on the ingredients side of things, and now work with food and beverage, supplements, and companion animal ingredient companies expand their international reach with expertise in safety approvals, registrations, setting up sales channels, and entering new markets worldwide. I have had the privilege of working with companies of all shapes and sizes from unfunded startups to the largest CPG in the world and everything in between supporting the scope, growth, and expansion of many health and functional ingredients and even finished products. While I\'ve been around the industry as a whole, international expansion is my real niche and expertise. I have worked with ingredients of all types and always excited to learn about new ones, but probiotics are where my deepest expertise lies.

Experience

  1. Owner

    Blue Dot Ingredient Solutions

    Feb 2025 — Present

    Blue Dot Ingredient Solutions was founded to fill a gap in the market: while plenty of consultants focus on regulatory approvals or compliance, or business development, few can do both, and even fewer have experience doing so on a global scale. Blue Dot helps ingredient companies expand internationally by combining deep regulatory expertise with real-world commercial strategy. I don’t just tell you what the rules are; I help you build a business around them.
