COLLABORATIONS

“Over the years I have had the great privilege of working with many great businesses, brands and licences.

Licensing great brands and developing in your category is something I have a lot of experience in. It can be a great way to disrupt the category and bring in new consumers.

Other collaborations have been through Private Label, Third Party manufacture and close supplier collaborations.”
