Case Study

Delivered 10X growth on a start-up brand in the personal care space

The client was looking to set up a new business from the ground up and engaged NorthSide to develop the idea and to drive end -to-end commercialization. 

NorthSide identified a compelling business concept, which was a blue ocean space within a large red ocean category, developed a regional strategy, set up sales and supply chain systems, set up e-commerce, and developed new products to drive growth.

Results

Approach
