How do I sell my trees or seeds to you?
We are a marketing and branding agency, and therefore don’t buy trees or seeds. However, we can help you to find growers for your business needs. Email info@coregeo.com for more information.
Can you help me with selling my product to a retail or foodservice partner?
Yes, we can. We work with our licensee partners to develop compelling proposals and pitches that will be used to convince a retail or foodservice partner to list your product/brand.
How often will you visit my facility to do a quality inspection?
We aim to visit your facility monthly. However, visits vary depending on availability, the volume of product moving through an individual site and the issues that are being found on site and in the retailers.
How long does it take to develop a brand for my product?
This all depends on the type of product and what channels have been identified for the product. We follow a stage-gate process which has been specifically designed by Coregeo to streamline the development process in taking your brand/product to the consumer.
I already have a fresh produce brand and need help to develop a marketing plan. Can you assist?
Yes, we can. We will work with you to identify and define your target market and then develop and build brand strategies and plans for the brand. The plans will include all touchpoints, including digital, social media and traditional communication channels.
What marketing channels will you use for my brand communications?
All communication channels will be considered for brand strategies. These include traditional channels such as television and radio and social media channels including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Pinterest and Tik Tok. We can also use digital channels, including a brand website and we will identify ways to drive traffic to the website through Google and other digital platforms and sites.
Which retailers do you deal with?
We have relationships with all the major retailers in the UK and with many retailers across Europe.
Which foodservice operators do you work with?
Many of our licensee partners work closely with the major food service operators. We work with them to develop specific marketing campaigns designed to educate and inspire the supply chain on how best to use our products.
How do I become an influencer for your brands?
Digital influencers are a considered part of all our consumer marketing campaigns. We encourage long-term partnerships and relationships. If you’re interested, get in touch via our brand social channels and we’ll get back to you.
