Parker Young are thrilled to be supporting one of the UK’s fastest-growing, founder-led FMCG brands as they continue their mission to disrupt a category crying out for innovation, authenticity and expert-led solutions.
Born from real professional expertise and rapidly scaling across major national retailers, this is a brand with serious momentum.
