Navigator Global in action

Real stories of how ambitious brands are expanding smarter with Navigator Global.

How our golden touch helped Hilltop Honey

How our golden touch helped Hilltop Honey

Hilltop’s challenge

Welsh honey producer Hilltop Honey had already gone from local hives to a nationally loved brand. But stepping into the global spotlight wasn’t as easy. Getting into their ultimate target – the USA market – meant navigating logistics, funding hurdles, and unfamiliar regulations. That’s when Hilltop tasked us with finding a way through.

Hilltop’s challenge

Our solution

With our help, Hilltop tapped into a powerful support network to help them buzz beyond borders. We connected them with legal, logistics, and marketing experts, helping to unlock £10m in funding. With this sweet funding deal, they landed in major US retailers like Walmart and Amazon, transforming this local honey producer into a £50m global success.

Our winning formula for Vow's global growth 

Our winning formula for Vow's global growth

Vow’s challenge

Already stocked in Boots and Holland & Barrett and proud partner of Team GB, Vow Nutrition had a bold vision: take their 100% vegan protein products beyond Britain. But with unfamiliar regulations, new dietary preferences, and a need for verified partners abroad, there were too many roadblocks on their global journey. They turned to us to help them clear the way.

Our Solution

We soon identified the best way forward for Vow. From market insights to compliance support, our platform helped fuel a confident global launch. Vow was soon introduced to a major Middle East distributor, resulting in their first international deal. This connection, combined with relationship-led support and action from our experts, gave them the momentum to step into international business.
