  • Episode 25: Andrew Ely @ Ely Advisory Services
    Planet Driven Brands Podcast Andrew Ely.
    Andrew has over 5 years experience with the sales and marketing of plant-based brands into UK and EU retail.
    He spent most of that time bringing Green & Gold to the UK, establishing and growing it - it also explains his passion for oats!
    Andrew shares his wisdom with us, enlightening us on his journey to plant-based, through family Veganuary, and to how he now sees the market.
    Fascinating is how he views the move from vegan 'ideology' to what we now term the 'post-vegan' world and furthermore, how consumers expect more from the look of plant-based food vs meat.
    He describes how brands can best position themselves for success in this booming market, with honourable mentions going to Oumph and Wicked kitchen.
    Andrew is a huge advocate for food and flavour and calls out the industry to keep striving to be better.
    He calls for manufacturers and retailers to work together, in order to make life easy for consumers who want to engage in this space.
    As he says:
    "Over 5 years probably the space for meat replacements has tripled. So I think we have to be pretty happy with progress!"
    Here, in the Planet Driven Brands Podcast Andrew Ely shares his wisdom, passion and desire for more great tasting plant-based food.
    I think you'll love it and I certainly enjoyed the chat :)

  • Episode 15: Alain De Rauw, Director @ Plan Toys Europe.
    Planet Driven Brands Podcast Alain De Rauw.
    Alain is an experienced leader in the world of toys and a Director of Plan Toys.
    He is leading the promotion of sustainability within a category which comes under intense scrutiny for it's overuse of plastic.
    In this podcast Alastair shares with us what I reckon is the 'best kept secret in all branding'!
    This podcast is a must-listen-to if you are interested how the use of wood can lead to a carbon credit of 40 tonnes per year.
    It really is a remarkable story that must be shared and Alain's remarks about his experience with a retailer in explaining FSC versus Plan Toys is funny whilst clearly farcical!
    Plan Toys has been a sustainable business since it's inception in 1981, taking wood for it's source and making sustainability its mission for over 40 years.
    As Alain points out: "We have been making millions of toys (from wood) and we have never ever destroyed or cut one tree from the forest"
    Alain, like all our panellists, is passionate about his business and the role it is playing in creating better future, 'especially for the kids'!
    Here, in Planet Driven Brands Podcast Alain De Rauw he shares his wisdom, passion and experience with us.
    I think you'll love it and I certainly enjoyed the chat :)
