After winning the competitive pitch, HERO will take on creative duties across the Calbee Australia existing portfolio, including iconic snacks Harvest Snaps and Melts, as well as a range of exciting new product launches.

HERO met all the criteria for the role said Natalie Johnson, marketing innovation manager, Calbee Australia: “The team at HERO really impressed us with their thorough, strategic and entrepreneurial approach, from the moment they were engaged and throughout the pitch process.

“Their passion and enthusiasm for snacking and our brands proved to be the perfect match for Calbee, and we are excited to usher in this new era of creativity and growth for one of Australia’s quickest growing snack brands.”
