Equip

Welcome to the return of real food.

A person in a cream sweater stands in a grassy field with cows and trees. Large red text reads “equip.” Smaller text below reads, “Nutrition as Nature Intended.”.

“Nutrition as Nature Intended”

The Context

Equip is a counter-movement to overcomplicated health trends. Grass-fed beef protein, collagen, no synthetic shortcuts. But the packaging looked like everything it wasn’t: Clinical. Generic. They asked us to turn a functional product into a brand world worth believing in.

The Insight

Nutrition used to be simple. Wellness got over-engineered. Too processed, too slick. When it comes to what's good for you, we trust what we recognize. So we asked ourselves one question: What if the world of tomorrow looked more like yesterday? “Natural nostalgia” became the design target that challenged the team to position Equip as a genuine pantry staple, not a supplement.

The Big Idea & Success

Equip exists to restore what’s lost in our diet, bringing back “Nutrition As Nature Intended”. It’s wellness inspired by trusted and time-tested ingredients and methods, yet it feels refreshingly soulful and modern. The brand evolution boosted conversion by 30% across all channels, kicked off a nationwide expansion, and helped gain the #1 position across key retailers.

“The impact has been massive. Every ecomm metric increased & retailers came knocking down our doors.”

ANTHONY GUSTINCEO

“The standard of work speaks for itself.

What is not seen is the team’s ability to take complexity & nuance & turn that into thoughtful design.”

KIERAN MATTHEWCEO
