Start of Life campaign

When new pet owners bring their kitten or puppy home for the first time, there is a window of opportunity to lock them into a brand such as Royal Canin.

Retail Excellence Marketing Playbook

To ensure standout in a busy environment we devised a 12 Point Playbook that served as a ‘best-in-class’ guide to excellence in shopper marketing.
