Payne & Associates. The philosophy behind TJP's business is to: merge the disciplines of Food Science, Marketing and Communications, to help clients achieve objectives.

For example, the organic acids of the raisin extended the shelf life of breads, reduced the need for salt and preservatives.

Communications: TJP communicated the messages through credible sources such as bakery magazines, baking schools and with one on one meetings with the research and development staffs of the world. Evaluation: With two years, bakeries everywhere were using California raisin in hundreds of new products. And the Word Spread. And, a company was launched.
