The Need

80 Acres is an indoor farm that delivers fresh, pesticide free, sustainable, flavorful produce within hours of harvest. With so many benefits to highlight, the brand wanted to focus its messaging but struggled to prioritize.  The team also sought to refresh their packaging, website and instore communications to better communicate what made the brand superior to alternatives.

 
 
What We Delivered
  • Category analysis among 10 competitors that identified a whitespace opportunity for 80 Acres.

  • Qualitative and Quantitative research to identify the target customer and gather insights on which benefits and claims most influenced category purchase decisions.

  • Clarified a single Brand Idea, which prioritized the most important benefits for the brand to win with customers while differentiating from competition.

  • Packaging and Claims that prioritized the most consumer-preferred benefits across brand assets.

  • Brand Messaging Strategy used across website copy, media, and events.

The
Results

The Brand Idea and packaging refresh set the brand up for quick growth in retail by expanding to dozens of new stores.

80 Acres received extremely positive retailer feedback on the strength of the brand that has led to disproportionate levels of display at launch.
