New Business

Retail Challenge 2024

We are an agency whose goal is to collaborate ad honorem with an Essential National Brand of Costa Rica every year.

This will be our first year and that is why we invite you to apply your brand so that we can work together on the image of your products or product lines, following a development methodology from the buyer's perspective.

We have a lot of experience developing projects in several Latin American countries for the mass consumption sector in channels such as hypermarkets, supermarkets, mini-supermarkets, hardware stores, pharmacies, appliance stores, among others.

What is the project about?

Our plan is to catapult an outstanding national brand, under the recognized seal 'Esencial Costa Rica', to new successes. With our HWP Shopper Marketing team, we have set out to achieve our client's marketing and brand strengthening objectives.
We will develop the project between February and March 2024.

This is not just a project, it is a mission. We want to demonstrate that by joining forces with other SMEs, we can do spectacular things. Not only will we measure our success in meeting our client's speciļ¬c goals, but also in how this project enhances our commitment to growth and collaboration in the SME community.

We are here to make a difference, bringing our experience and passion to the point-of-sale fight and demonstrating what can be achieved when we work side by side.

What will the selected brand receive?

1- A study of the category and the product in three different points of sale, where we will use several research methodologies, including the use of eye trackers in 30 shoppers intenders of the chosen product.
2- A communication strategy at the point of sale.
3- The final designs of the product packaging and all the POP material necessary to drive sales.
