Governor's Estate
​
As 3rd generation flavour purveyors, Governor's Estate needed strategic revitalisation of their FMCG packaging design to ignite distribution with retailers across the globe.
It was imperative that the new brand and product portfolio piqued the interest of trend-savvy retailers looking for a luxury, wrapped, premium experience that aligned with demand for drinkable wellness.
Insights from a category and consumer deep-dive were distilled into the B2B retailer strategy, packaging architecture, and marketing program focusing on tea as a wellness ritual.
With the Australian tea category to tip $1.5B by 2021, Governor’s Estate single-origin wellness teas present an affordable, luxury experience for today’s emerging health-savvy tea connoisseur.
