We help brands grow through various sales channels in the Benelux.

We know that the availability and visibility of your brand in the right place, with the right offer at the right price, is critical to achieving your business goals.

Building quality distribution requires a deep understanding of channel specifics , access to buyers & category managers, and significant upfront investments in time, overhead and skills. Resources rarely available to young, ambitious companies. As a result, making sure consumers can find, buy and enjoy your products can be a complex, slow and often frustrating process.

And that is exactly why we are here

With our in-depth knowledge of the plant-based categories, commercial network, reliable & cost-effective supply chain and our experience in in-store activation, we can help you with:

Sales Strategy

develop a sales strategy and a unique channel approach for each market.

Sales and account management

both at headquarters and, with the help of our field sales-force, at the store level.

Sales

shopper activation and point-of-sales execution.

Supply chain

supply chain and logistics for all of Europe, including compliance, customs.

Backoffice

A strong supportive administrative team.

“Our passion for delicious and quality plant-based food is what drives us.”

Joep van Straalen, Founder & COO

Collaborate to develop the sales strategy that best fits your brand

We operate in a fast-paced and dynamic environment: consumer behavior, the plant-based category and the channel landscape are constantly changing.

A “one size fits all” approach will not suffice. We need to look at WHERE the plant-based consumer stores and adjust our offerings accordingly. This means adapting WHAT we sell and HOW we sell it.

Through a series of co-building steps, our unique sales strategy model is built around:

  • ^WHERE to play: identify channel, type, point of sale and customer potential.
  • ^Determine the appropriate RTM model per outlet channel & point of sale.
  • ^PORTFOLIO & OFFERINGS. This includes portfolio, pricing, in-store location, shelf, brand visibility and promotion.
  • ^Conversion is paramount in point-of-sale execution.
