We adapt to consumer demands and work in tandem with our customers and Buying Teams to develop fresh new products for the most important day of the year. Our Creative Teams focus on maintaining the essence of the beloved Christmas cracker, while bringing to life new shapes, forms, sizes and constructions – in order to offer variety, and choice, injecting newness and vision.
Industry Leading Insight
Liaising directly with Asia, our Product Teams source new environmentally acceptable materials, ribbons and decorations. We commission and innovate responsibly sourced and fully recyclable cracker content, and develop new applications of surface finish and cracker adornments with an environmental conscience. We complete the product as ‘shelf-ready’, by offering packaging and merchandising solutions and point-of-sale tools, plus online photography and PR support.
All Design Group Tom Smith crackers are plastic-free and made with recycled board.
