Sean Tindale:
“The relationship between brands and ingredient brands is a true representation of symbiosis. The ingredient brands can focus 100% of their energy and resources on creating innovative, relevant products that add value to their brand partners’ products. The aim could be longevity, a better wearing experience for the customer, improved functionality, circular design integration or an increased point of difference compared to the brands’ competitors. If you let two partners focus on what they are really good at and then add that expertise together, you get 200% effort and input and what’s not to like about that equation.”
