Award wins for Chesterfield’s Global Brands
Global Brands ltd, a Chesterfield-based drinks producer has won several industry awards for its innovative products.
The company’s range of Gather Gourmet Cocktails have been awarded the Champion for Label & Pack Design of the Year – Drinks, at The Grocer NPD & Packaging Awards. In addition, the Gather Caramel Banana Colada won Silver in the Alcoholic Drinks NPD category. These awards seek to recognise the efforts of brands bringing excitement and difference to grocery aisles.
Head of NPD at Global Brands, Jerome Jacob, commented: “With Gather, our vision was simple: capture the magic of a truly indulgent cocktail bar in a can, making that premium experience accessible at home. From mixing spices by hand to infusing tequila with habanero right in our development kitchens, it’s been a hands-on, creative journey. Winning these awards for both design and innovation is proof of the dedication behind every detail, every flavour, and every decision”.
Creative Director, Andrew Warren, added: “What a fantastic result. It was a designers dream, job full of individual style and typography. Well done to Antony Firth the lead designer and all the team players from Clay Creative, NPD, Brand and Production. Great team effort. I am sure there’s more to come in 2025.”
