How Firelli USA made a decision about their UK market operating model
When a successful US condiments brand wanted to assess the opportunity for UK market scaling, YF advised on their operating model and go-to-market strategy, allowing the founders to make an easy commercial decision.
“We engaged Young Foodies to help us better understand the potential of the UK market, and the different approaches we could take with our brand.
They performed an excellent, clear and insightful piece of work that helped us make a quick decision. They were great to work with and I would highly recommend leaning on their expertise.”
