Success Stories

Bucchi Style Walking Bag

Originally created by Darren Bird for his Husky when visiting a cafe in New Zealand on a napkin. Shaped like a Porsche Badge, a detachable leash bag to hold his phone, credit card while the dog was secured by a leash to a chair leg or lamp post as they dined. Soon after Bucchi was born. Developing a mind of its own selling in high fashion stores Harrods in London, Boutique Pet Hotels, Large Pet Retailers PetCo, Petsmart along with other stores around the world. The brand included Pet Beds, Pet Nutrition alongside the Bucchi Walking Bag.

PetBlinkers.com

A light bulb moment created by Darren Bird on his farm in New Zealand to help detect the whereabouts of his 2 energetic Siberian Huskies at night. Designing  marketing collateral to pitch a prospective buyer and hoping on a flight to LA. 2 weeks after the meeting, starting with a Pet Show in the US selling hundreds of thousand units, selling out on QVC we had created a winner. Soon turning into one of the most innovative Pet Safety products the pet world had seen, selling around the world opening many Distribution doors along with exhibitions across the globe, imitated by many that will never be the first.PetBlinkers is still sold today by Flipo Group USA.

Aquaman NZ - PH9 High Alkaline Water

Health and Wellbeing hydration water was created because of shocking news. Darren's family was afflicted by cancer affecting his wife with bow cancer soon after launching a travel company which ended after the news. Researching the causes of cancer became a natural pathway for the following 3 years. The food we eat, stress, sugar, water all contributed to our bodies ability to manage life threatening illness. Water had a big part to play, so he worked with Water Filtration industry international experts Pentair to narrow down contaminants, carcinogens, pathergins, chemicals in our water that didn't help our health and wellbeing. Opting to find a natural living water source with minerals and higher alkaline levels he found a source 400 metres below ground in New Zealand. Launching Aquaman PH9 High Alkaline water growing the range and retail following. This is set to be a big success story in the future of water with inquiry from China, USA, UAE already this year.

Rapid Dry Towels

A very close friend Richard Norris - previously an investment banker on Wall Street. We both lived in the USA at the same time. Richard with Goldman Sachs and Darren with Bucchi and PetBlinkers with equal adoration of each other's skill sets. Both of us eventually returned to NZ at the same time,  Richard started working on an idea of creating a Grooming product range that started with a microfibre drying towel. Soon after Darren was bought in to help with his wealth of experience. Together we have exhibited across NZ at car shows, boat shows, learning every step of the way. Travelling to Shows Like Rennsport Porsche Events in LaGuna Seca and Barrett Jackson Arizona selling out every time. Now sold by Audi, Porsche, Skoda, VW, Shelby America, Superformance and many more to come.

Blade Mop

Bought to Darren from Perth Australia in a plastic bag was an idea, pieced together by plastic, glue and a screw were the elements of an innovative janitorial mop product was born. Blade Mops are designed to lower the rate of back strain for service industry workers at airports, hospitals, hospitality and cleaners. It is a mop with 2 Scraper blades for gum, tape removal without bending over or working from your knees. I'm sure there are many more uses. Our status on this one is promising with TM and Patent Pending approvals underway in the USA prior to signing distribution agreements with interested parties.

Custom Gifting

This started with a solution to a request from a client consultation. Present me with a gift. We were after Professional, Branded, Memorable, Industry Specific, Valuable - So we went with a touch of Saks Fifth Ave New York style and designed everything you need in a modern motor vehicle for a specific price target. It's been so well received the client has ordered over 3000 units so far. We have new clients joining us this year. Contact Darren for a consultation if you think we can do something for you.
