Ecoffee Cup, the market leader in reusable coffee cups, has appointed Bold White Space to help drive strategy, creative and PR following a credentials pitch.

The brand was founded in 2014 by David and Ali McLagan and has become one of the leading reusable coffee cup brands in Europe, bringing together style, functionality and sustainability to create products that have resonated with consumers. Over 12m Ecoffee Cup products have been sold since launch.

Bold White Space has been retained to evaluate and define the brand’s strategy as it enters a new phase of growth and seeks to widen its appeal beyond core customers. The agency will then drive creative and implement an ongoing communications programme for the business.

As part of the engagement, Ecoffee Cup will leverage the agency’s technology platform, which monitors and tracks every aspect of the brand’s performance and enables the consultancy to predict and react to developing trends in real-time across all channels.

The work will be led by Bold White Space co-founder and director, Nick Ford-Young, reporting to Ecoffee Cup brand director David McLagan and operations director Oliver Wessely.

Ford-Young says, “Ecoffee Cup is a leader in its field and now needs to expand its reach to fully realise the hugely positive benefits it can deliver. We believe the product is about so much more than sustainability; we look forward to working with the brand to help drive its next phase of growth.”

Bold White Space launched in May and brings together advertising, marketing and PR. It was founded by Mike Robb, former Engine MHP managing director, and Nick Ford-Young, former managing director of brand strategy and content agency Studio Black Tomato. The agency brings a wealth of advertising, marketing and PR expertise in its established senior team to its work with clients.
