00:00 / 00:00Why CPG brands need a different partner

In this film

We've built our own CPG brands from scratch. Failed plenty. Succeeded when it counted.

So we know exactly what it's like to run a growing consumer brand. Outsourcing left, right and centre to third parties who don't talk to each other, aren't specialised in CPG, and never truly learn your brand.

You end up in the middle, piecing it all together.

And that's no good, because that's not where your time should be going. It should be going into the product, the next NPD run, the retailers you're chasing, the distributors you haven't signed, the territory you want to open.

That's why we built Butcherbird. It started as a service for our own brands. Now it runs other founders' brands too.

Every growth function you need, under one roof.

The CPG Growth Engine.

Whatever stage you're at, we tailor a solution for you.

The CPG Growth Engine

Six pillars every CPG brand needs.

Every brand is in a different stage of growth.

We find out exactly where you are today, then tailor a solution that fits your stage, your market, and where you're headed.

These are our brands.

Built, scaled, and run on the same engine.
