What Makes This Agency Different

True category specialisation

Canada’s only full-service agency focused exclusively on food, beverage and

agriculture. This depth delivers insight, credibility and speed that generalist platforms

cannot replicate.


High-stakes, multi-stakeholder capability

Proven track record working with CPG brands, foodservice suppliers, industry boards,

advocacy groups and regulated sectors where trust, compliance and public scrutiny

matter.


Differentiated in-house production

Integrated test kitchen, photography and video studio enables rapid concept

development, real-world testing, and campaign-ready content without reliance on third-

party suppliers. All IP is client-owned.


Thought leadership engine

Flagship annual trend report with thousands of downloads, strong earned media pickup,

regular speaking engagements, and a highly engaged industry newsletter database of

nearly 6,000 subscribers.

organisations and public bodies across:

  • Balanced mix of retainer and project revenue

  • Low staff turnover with strong culture (team size: 10)

  • Scalable model with clear opportunity to leverage platform synergies

Ownership & Transaction Rationale

larger platform to accelerate growth, expand geographic reach, and unlock the next

phase of the agency’s potential.

focused role, while stepping back from day-to-day operations.
