Gurgaon-based Northside’s stand near the tea-related and Tea Board stands at the Indusfood exhibition, attracted several serious visitors amongst mid-size food and beverage companies looking to expand their product offerings and market reach. Led by Vidur Vyas, who has over 25 years of experience in brand building, the company has already incubated more than 40 ventures. It says it can help manufacturers identify opportunities, position their brand, develop creative assets, and take ideas to product and market fitness.

Its team of award-winning creative directors, designers, and strategy experts can help craft compelling brand logos, innovative packaging concepts, and impactful communication in both static and video formats. Various end-to-end services are also offered and the company can be reached at www.northside.co.in.

The spate of food exhibitions across the country has provided face-to-face opportunities for producers of ingredients and products to meet with buyers. While these direct marketing and trading opportunities bring a rush of blood to some exhibitors and occasionally actual discussions and deals are initiated, the food and beverage industry can only grow meaningfully with a structured and strategic approach. Where do your assets and ideas fit into the overall market demands? What is the fine-tuning in product mix, branding, distribution, and adjacencies that a manufacturer needs for its next steps?

At the Indusfood exhibition in Greater Noida, there was a good representation of intermediary, trading, service, and consulting companies from several regions and continents that can move the marketing, trading, distribution, and branding of food producers in the right direction. It brought visitors and exhibitors an opportunity to meet with companies with a track record in professional services and consultancy.
