CPG marketing agency built for retail and DTC

Brand, packaging, web and media for food, beverage and household brands. Built for the shelf you are fighting for and the screen you are found on.

CPG is the category where the work has to survive contact with a retailer. A brand that reads beautifully in a deck still has to win at four feet, in a second, next to a store brand that costs less.

So we build for both. The pack, the site and the media are one job, because the shopper does not experience them separately.

Selected work

What does a CPG marketing agency actually do?

For us it means brand and packaging, the site, and the media that gets the product found and bought, treated as one job. A pack that works and a site that contradicts it is a brand problem, not two separate briefs.

Do you work with brands before they have distribution?

Yes, and it is often the better time. Pack architecture and claims are cheaper to get right before a retailer has approved a planogram and a print run exists.

Can you help us get on shelf, or only once we are there?

Once you are there. We are not a broker and we will not pretend to be. What we do is make sure that when a buyer looks at your pack and your numbers, neither of them is the reason you get declined.

Do you do packaging design as well as media?

Both, and we would rather do both. Most of our CPG work started as brand and packaging and grew into media, because the two keep running into each other.

We sell DTC and retail. Does that change anything?

Yes. DTC lets you learn fast and retail makes you commit, so the pack has to satisfy a shopper who is scrolling and one who is standing in an aisle. We will tell you where those two are currently fighting each other on your site.

What does it cost?

It depends on the scope. Send us the range and where you sell, and we will come back with a number and whether we are the right team for it.
