Case Study
Something & Nothing – Growing Something From Nothing
We have the pleasure of being the exclusive distributors of the Something & Nothing range for the island of Ireland. Having taken on the rights in late 2020, we have grown Something & Nothing from 1 single stockist to over 100 retailers nationwide through an array of Premium Grocers, Independent Cafes, Restaurants, Casual Dining Locations, Takeaways and many more outlets.
This is a direct result of our committed, hardworking team who are dedicated to growing brands from origin to ensure the best brand partners are found from day one. With Something & Nothing, we identified the 10 best cafes in Dublin (in our opinion) and ensured we got the Something & Nothing products on their shelves.
Through targeting the best stockists possible, coupled with the high quality nature of the Something & Nothing products and stategic marketing, we created huge demand for the product across the city of Dublin. Since then we have hand-picked stockists that aligned well with the brand and have created fantastic relationships with our existing stockists through reliable distribution, creative marketing and most importantly, providing products that are second to none.
Something & Nothing are now the market leader for Seltzer in Ireland and it’s a great honour for Hosons Brands to be a partner of such a progressive company who continue to do, and create great things.
