People want to lead healthier lived, but it’s hard to stay positive when even treating yourself comes with baggage. Too many brands promise health and delivery sugary, salt and saturated fats in this guise. Two brothers who wanted to help people with the health crisis in the UK were the Brassill brothers. They came to me to bring their vision of a truly healthy treat brand and way of living to life and what better place to make an impact than the bakery category. A dusty, sugary, saturated in fats and palm oil galore!

THE CHALLENGE
To help break this negative feeling around indulgent food. To invent fresh indulgent treats that are both healthy and sustainable. We are innovative and strive for perfection. We have started with a classic bakery product but have a NPD pipeline to improve the bakery category as a whole. Then it’s onto a new mission… We needed to create disruption in the bakery category.

THE OPPORTUNITY
An name and brand with visual impact. “Live Junk-Free” – what do we mean? Humans deserve all the freshly baked things (without the guilt trip). So we have made the best tasting, healthiest treats with zero waste in mind. We’re talking totally junk-free ingredients and packaging. It was hugely important to ensure even as a start up with no sales and therefore no large marketing budget, to ensure we started as we mean to go.

THE IMPACT
In any project it is important to decide the goal and what success will look like. The metrics and measures we will use are based around the values that are at the heart of the brand we created. Reinvention and consuming mindfully. Had we created a bakery brand that will start to redefine the perception of bakery and indulgence from a guilty pleasure (all the inherent sub conscious bias around treats) and into a pleasurable experience that can simply be enjoyed in a more positive healthier lifestyle for everyone.

So far the results and impact we are having in changing the industry and as we know consumer demand drives this are very positive. From a start up since the brand was created and pitched to the wider world, Jnck have secured several trials with universities, healthy retailers, go puff retail app and an six figure investment from the UK government fund to solve the obesity crisis in the UK. This will be used to develop a pipeline of better for you bakery products to dejunk the bakery category. Recent wins have been distribution across the Soho Coffee Chains in London and hot of the press entry into the Tesco accelerator programme with UK listings as a result of the demand by consumers for healthier alternatives as an antidote to high sugar, low nutritional value snacks and treats.
