Producer Profile
S.D Bells has a rather impressive heritage, renowned as one of Belfast’s best coffee roasters and tea brewers. So, it was no surprise that great-grandson Robert Bell was in need of some pretty impressive packaging. It needed a nod to the history of the product and his ancestor, but also the modern way in which his tea and coffee is now used. The result? Timeless.
PPP’s Favourite Product Peppermint Speciality Tea Bags
Priory discussed the brief with us at length, and from the very start, went out of their way to understand the brief, and provide us with repeated samples, until we were happy with the material design.
They were very helpful in identifying what was possible, sensible and effective, in particular with the judicious use of foil, to gain the best possible shelf-presence without going over-budget.
They are a busy team, and at times it was clear that their increasing customer demand meant that they were a bit stretched, but generally the timescale expectations that they set were met, and I am thrilled with the result.
We are already discussing the next product line, a re-vamp of our 60-plus range of Speciality Leaf Teas
