The brand had made our company vision real. It has defined our direction andnow drives our product differentiation. There’s no doubt that it has been a key factor in our success milestones over the past 12 months - landing Europe’s biggest deal, building relationships with the top channel partners in the world and raising €3 million in second-round funding from ESB Modus Novus.”

‘The team of Glanbia Nutritionals and Threesixty has delivered sales growth of a factor of four for Provon Revive.’

“It was at the stage of commercialisation of Provon Revive that we employed Threesixty to advise on brand identity, positioning, route to market and event execution. The expertise the team brought to the Provon brand from competitor reviews, market gap analysis, visual identity generation, intuitive and e-commerce friendly web design was instrumental to the brand’s success.”
