HOW WE’VE HELPED CONSUMER GOODS BRAND GROW
Tea and Coffee
We were able to give Nescafe to confidence to completely re-launch the packaging for their whole range, including Nescafe Original, Nescafe Gold and Nescafe Azera. This relaunch was executed in every market that sells Nescafe and is still in market today.
Honey & Syrups
Rowse Honey launched their new advertising campaign after Catalyx helped them tailor the perfect message. The recommendations Catalyx generated enabled Rowse to craft one of the most impactful and effective ads of the year to date, according to The DRUM. The campaign is still being used today across the whole of the UK.
Grocery
Our partnership with Premier Foods has helped them to innovate with the greatest chance of success. In line with our philosophy of learn, not just test, Catalyx also surfaced common consumer appeal factors using meta-analysis across concept tests, to further refine & progress Premier Foods’ innovation capability.
GROCERY
We delivered strategic direction for 17 Mondelez brands over 24 projects in 13 markets by ensuring they had the consumer information and actions needed to maximise appeal & performance of their existing product ranges.
Ready to Drink (RTD)
With the emergence of cold-brew coffee in the US market, Lavazza needed to build a proposition that broke ground and tapped into this emerging trend. Catalyx explored cold-brew consumers in the USA to build a hypothesis and blueprint for Lavazza to develop a new range that launched successfully in a new territory.
INTIMATE PRODUCTS
“Catalyx’s findings have been brilliant, especially for two massive segments; lubricants and sex toys. The final report is useful in both the long and short-term, too – the slides are ready to go and we made sure it was socialised it to lots of key areas of the business.”
BABY FOOD
We captured over 50,000 pieces of consumer data through our award-winning crowdsourced behavioural research approach, which our strategists then processed this find the story of the why to ensure Organix progressed their new baby food range to a successful launch.
