"Today there is more consumer interest than ever in Braintree’s combined sustainability and design approach – however because we sell mainly through wholesalers we didn`t have an on-the-ground retail presence that would raise our public profile and get our name out there. We knew people wanted to buy-in to our ethos, we needed expert marketing to make sure they could discover us."
