Consumers are concerned about the planet. They want to know what they’re buying. Supporting businesses who share their concerns about the Earth’s future is key. So what’s the difference between being durable and being a part of the solution? A clear marketing strategy, because let’s face it, if no one knows how green you are, you aren’t. That’s where Cru-Design comes in. We bridge the gap between your viable systems and branding ambitions.
Once you initiate a project analysis by Cru-Design, we check out your dirt. Our sustainability audit begins with a farm walk and in-person tour of your facilities. We inspect your infrastructure and your production systems including water- waste- energy- and pest management, packaging, delivery and more. Next, we complete quantitative and qualitative surveys and interviews with you, your employees, contractors, and clients. Only then we can pull up our sleeves and dig into a full research assessment.
Just like planting in the fields, we believe implementation is an iterative process that continues to look at the data and examine the outcomes. Even with years of tested experience in durable sales strategies and climate-resistant production, we still know that your production is unique. We will create a tailor-made action plan specifically designed for your business that begins with easy wins and grows at a durable pace. Along the way, we maintain in-depth communication with you and other stakeholders for transparency, inclusivity, and support for you and your team.
When we’re done, your brand will smell as durable as your dirt.

Vincent Panneels had some relevant questions so he presented me his list during an online conversation.
At the CCWA last year in Poland, I was given the opportunity to present the Belgian wine production, scientifically-based, to my fellow-judges who are all high-level professionals. The results of my post-graduate dissertation “Climate resilience of the Belgian wine production sector” in 2021 was the basis of not only this powerpoint, but also of the […]
