Orange PR & Marketing has been appointed to manage the social media and influencer marketing for Milgro , the Northern Ireland-based onion grower behind a growing range of quality onion products, including its popular Crispy Onions. Onions might not be the first thing that springs to mind when you picture a scroll-stopping social feed, and that's exactly why we said yes. Some of the most rewarding social media marketing comes from taking a brilliant, honest product and finding fresh ways to make people stop, look and crave it. That's the opportunity with Milgro, and as an agency that loves working with food brands and farm brands alike, it's one we're relishing. From Field to Fork Milgro has something a lot of food and drink brands would love to have: a real story, start to finish. Seed, soil, harvest, kitchen. There's craft and provenance in every stage, and for a farm brand, that's rich territory for social media content, from harvest footage and behind-the-scenes moments to recipes that show just how versatile a good onion really is. Our first job is turning all of that into a clear social media strategy and a rolling monthly content calendar, built around the moments, formats and trends that will land with Milgro's audiences on Instagram and TikTok. More personality with content creation that feels current, appetising and unmistakably Milgro. It's the kind of provenance-rich storytelling that farm and food brands are perfectly placed to own. A Timely Boost: The New Retail Listing The timing couldn't be better, either. Milgro has just landed a new UK retail listing for its Crispy Onion range, so a big part of our focus is putting that moment to work, using social content and creator partnerships to build buzz, drive discovery and get the range in front of shoppers who'll love it. Getting the Right Creators on Board Rather than chasing follower counts, our influencer marketing matches our clients with creators whose audiences genuinely fit the brand, from family-focused accounts to food-led creators who know how to make a product look irresistible. Just as importantly, those partnerships generate a steady stream of authentic user-generated content (UGC) that we can amplify across Milgro's own channels, so every collaboration works twice as hard. Paired with strong organic content, influencer marketing and UGC are a fast, credible way to introduce the products to new audiences and earn a place in people's baskets, and their recipes. Why We're Excited Milgro is our dream kind of client: quality-led, full of character and ready to grow. As a social media and influencer marketing agency that specialises in food brands and farm brands right across the UK, we get a real kick out of taking a genuinely good product and giving it the social presence and creator support to match. We'll be sharing plenty from the work as it develops. In the meantime, if you're a food, drink or farm brand wondering how social media marketing, UGC and influencer marketing could grow your brand, we'd love to hear from you. 

Orange PR & Marketing has been appointed as the PR agency for Flawsome! Drinks , the sustainable, non-alcoholic drinks brand on a mission to fight food waste, one delicious sip at a time. As part of the partnership, Orange will lead media relations for an exciting summer campaign, helping to raise the profile of the brand with national media and put Flawsome! front of mind as consumers look for refreshing, feel-good drinks this summer. It's a brief that sits right at the heart of what we do as a specialist food and drink PR agency, and one we've been looking forward to getting started on. As a Colchester, Essex-based drinks PR agency working with brands across the UK, it's exactly the kind of consumer PR campaign we love to lead. A Brand With a Story Worth Telling Flawsome! is a brand built on a brilliant idea: taking "wonky" and surplus fruit that might otherwise go to waste and turning it into delicious cold-pressed juices and sparkling juice drinks. It's a proposition that pairs genuine sustainability credentials with fantastic-tasting products, and has a purpose-led story that resonates with today's consumers and the media alike. At Orange, we specialise in food and drink PR, working with challenger drinks brands, start-ups and household names across the sector. As a sustainable drinks brand with genuine purpose, Flawsome! is a natural fit for our approach: we know how to translate a brand's mission into meaningful, earned coverage, and its combination of sustainability, taste and personality gives us so much to work with. From consumer PR and national media relations to digital PR that supports search visibility, our focus is on building awareness that lasts. Leading Media Relations for an Exciting Summer Campaign Our first focus is managing the media relations for an exciting summer campaign, and while we're keeping the full details under wraps for now, it's shaping up to be a real highlight of the season. Summer is a key moment for the non-alcoholic drinks category, with more consumers than ever seeking out no- and low-alcohol options that don't compromise on flavour or experience, and it's the perfect time to build standout awareness for the brand. Through strategic, national media relations, we'll be working to secure national media coverage that gets Flawsome! in front of the right audiences at exactly the right time. We'll be sharing more as the campaign comes to life. Bringing Back Proper PR for Purpose-Led Brands Brands like Flawsome! are a perfect example of why we do what we do. When a business has a genuine purpose, a distinctive personality and a product people love, the opportunity for creative, story-led PR is huge. Our job is to find fresh, relevant and culturally resonant ways to share that story, securing the kind of coverage that builds credibility, awareness and long-term growth. That's what bringing back proper PR is all about: thoughtful storytelling, strong media relationships and campaigns that help brands stand out for the right reasons. Looking Ahead It's a real privilege to be working with the Flawsome! team and supporting such a brilliant, purpose-driven brand at such an exciting time. As we roll out activity over the coming weeks, we look forward to sharing more of what we've been working on.

Following a string of exciting new client wins, Orange has been appointed as the PR and marketing agency for Tiptree Patisserie , the artisan bakery and patisserie based in Witham, Essex, and proudly part of the Wilkin & Sons family. As part of the partnership, Orange will support Tiptree Patisserie across trade and national media outreach, social media strategy and content creation, helping to raise the profile of its handmade cakes, traybakes, muffins, scones and patisserie among hospitality buyers and consumers alike. It's a brief that plays directly to our strengths as a specialist food and drink PR agency, and one we're thrilled to be getting stuck into. A Natural Fit for Our Food & Drink Experience At Orange, food and drink is at the heart of what we do. From heritage brands to challengers and start-ups, we work with producers across the sector to secure meaningful coverage, build brand awareness and tell stories that resonate with both trade and consumer audiences. Tiptree Patisserie is a wonderful addition to that portfolio: a quality-led, craft bakery supplying independent coffee shops, tea rooms and cafés with beautifully made products. That combination of provenance, craftsmanship and quality is exactly the kind of story we love to tell. As a food and drink PR agency, we understand the trade press, the hospitality landscape and the national food media, and we know how to position an artisan bakery so that it stands out with the buyers and audiences that matter most. Proudly Essex, Proudly Local This appointment is a particularly special one for us because it's so close to home. Orange is an Essex-based PR agency, and Tiptree Patisserie is right on our doorstep in Witham. Supporting brilliant local producers within our own county is something we care deeply about, and there's a real advantage in that proximity, from being on hand for content creation days to genuinely understanding the region, its heritage and its audiences. Working with a like-minded Essex business, we're excited to champion a local name on both a regional and national stage. Part of the Wilkin & Sons Family Tiptree Patisserie is part of the Wilkin & Sons family, renowned the world over for its iconic Tiptree jams and preserves. That heritage runs through everything the patisserie does, from its commitment to quality ingredients to the craftsmanship behind every bake. It's a pedigree few bakeries can claim, and one of the brand's strongest points of difference in a competitive market. Supporting the Launch of the New Trade Website The appointment also comes at an exciting time for the brand, which has just launched a brand-new trade website. The new site makes it easier than ever for cafés, coffee shops and hospitality businesses to discover and order the full range of Tiptree Patisserie products. Alongside our media and social activity, we'll be helping to build awareness of the new platform and drive it in front of the trade audiences it's designed for. What the Partnership Involves Our work with Tiptree Patisserie brings together trade and national media relations, a refreshed social media strategy and ongoing content creation, all designed to build visibility, credibility and long-term growth. From securing trade coverage among hospitality and food-service audiences to creating engaging, platform-first content across the brand's social channels, our focus is on delivering joined-up activity that supports the brand both commercially and creatively. Looking Ahead We couldn't be more excited to be working with such a special local business, and to be deepening our relationship with the wider Wilkin & Sons family. As we begin rolling out activity, our focus remains the same as ever: bringing back proper PR through thoughtful storytelling, strong media relationships and creative campaigns that help brands stand out for the right reasons.  Watch this space for more updates as we get to work with Tiptree Patisserie over the coming months.

May was another exciting month at Orange PR, with new client appointments, strong social media results and the launch of several campaigns that will continue building momentum throughout the summer. As a PR agency based in Colchester, Essex, we continued supporting brands across the UK through strategic consumer PR, trade PR and social media management, helping clients build visibility with both consumers and industry audiences. As a specialist food and drink PR agency, May was particularly exciting, with several new client wins, product launches and campaigns reinforcing our growing presence within the sector. Here's a look at some of our highlights from May. Appointed to Launch Mauldons Brewery's Limited-Edition Anniversary Can One of our standout moments this month was being appointed by Mauldons Brewery to manage the PR launch of its limited-edition cans celebrating 20 years of its award-winning Silver Adder beer. The campaign marks an important milestone for the brewery and provides a fantastic opportunity to celebrate one of its most recognised products. Following the launch announcement, we've already secured both trade and local media coverage, helping to raise awareness among beer enthusiasts, retailers and industry audiences alike. Working with brands that have genuine heritage and stories to tell is something we particularly enjoy, and we're excited to continue supporting Mauldons Brewery as the campaign develops. Record-Breaking TikTok Results for Roomes Furniture & Interiors May delivered our strongest month yet on TikTok for interiors brand, Roomes Furniture & Interiors. As part of our ongoing social media management and content creation support, post views increased by an impressive 145%, followers grew by 32%, audience reach increased by 138% and total shares rose by 200%. These results highlight the value of consistent, platform-first content and demonstrate how effective social media can be for building brand awareness and engagement. With further content already planned, we're looking forward to building on this momentum over the coming months. Fairfields Farm Launches New Summer Flavour May also saw the trade launch of Fairfields Farm' s new limited-edition summer flavour, Cajun Barbecue. We supported the launch through targeted trade PR activity, securing coverage across a range of food and drink industry publications ahead of the product reaching shelves in June. Generating awareness among buyers, retailers and industry audiences before a consumer launch is an important part of effective food and drink PR, helping brands build momentum before products arrive in-store. Alongside the launch activity, we also held an exciting strategy session with the Fairfields Farm team following several new appointments within the business. With a number of exciting ideas already in development, we're looking forward to supporting the brand with creative campaigns, product launches and PR activity throughout the remainder of 2026 and into 2027. Mission Mud Launches for Essex & Herts Air Ambulance May also saw the launch of Mission Mud for Essex & Herts Air Ambulance , with Orange leading local media outreach ahead of the event. Alongside securing regional awareness, we've also been working on partnerships with local influencers to help generate excitement before the event and capture content on the day itself. By combining traditional media relations with influencer marketing, we're helping the charity reach new audiences and drive participation in what promises to be a fantastic fundraising event. We're looking forward to seeing the campaign continue to build momentum in the lead-up to the event. Three New Food & Drink Clients Join Orange May was also a particularly strong month for new business, with Orange appointed by three new food and drink brands. While we can't reveal the details just yet, we're excited to share more about these partnerships in June. The appointments further strengthen our position as a specialist food and drink PR agency and reflect the growing demand for strategic PR and social media support within the sector. Watch this space for some exciting announcements coming soon. Food & Drink Innovation Conference Our Account Director, Lucy, attended the Food & Drink Innovation Conference during May, representing Orange and connecting with brands, suppliers and industry leaders from across the sector. Alongside some excellent networking opportunities, the event provided valuable insight into emerging trends, innovation and the future of the food and drink industry. From changing consumer behaviours and retail trends to product innovation and sustainability, the conference offered plenty of inspiration and practical takeaways. As specialists in food and drink PR, it's important that we stay close to the conversations shaping the industry. We'll be sharing some of our key insights and observations across our website and social media channels over the coming weeks. Looking Ahead to Summer May was a month of strong foundations, exciting new partnerships and campaigns beginning to gather momentum. With new client launches, summer product launches, influencer campaigns, media opportunities and events all on the horizon, we're looking forward to a busy and exciting summer. As always, our focus remains on bringing back proper PR through thoughtful storytelling, strong media relationships and creative campaigns that help brands stand out for the right reasons. We can't wait to share more of what we've been working on over the coming months. 

We’re delighted to announce that Orange PR & Marketing has been appointed as the national PR agency for Tiptree , one of Britain’s most iconic food brands. Following a competitive pitch process, Orange will support Tiptree with strategic national PR activity spanning consumer, food, farming and lifestyle media, helping to further strengthen awareness of the brand, its products and its rich heritage. For us, this is particularly exciting because Tiptree is a brand that needs little introduction. Founded in 1885, Tiptree has become synonymous with quality British preserves, with its jams and marmalades enjoyed by generations of consumers both in the UK and around the world. Today, the brand continues to evolve, with a growing range that includes tomato ketchup, sweet spreads and nut butters, while remaining firmly rooted in the values and quality that have defined it. Another Milestone for Orange's Food & Drink PR Team The appointment marks another significant milestone for Orange as we continue to grow our reputation as a leading food and drink PR agency. Based in Colchester, Essex, we work with food and drink brands across the UK, helping them secure meaningful media coverage, build brand awareness and tell stories that resonate with both consumers and industry audiences. Our portfolio spans challenger brands, start-ups and household names, including Europe’s largest matcha brand PerfectTed , luxury chocolate brand Cocoba , health and wellness brands such as Heylo and Betta , and Fairfields Farm , which recently reappointed Orange for a third consecutive year. Whether we're supporting a product launch, building founder profiles, securing product placement opportunities, managing a press office or developing long-term brand storytelling campaigns, our focus remains the same: bringing back proper PR. Why Heritage Brands Matter One of the reasons we were particularly excited about this opportunity is Tiptree’s heritage. At Orange, we believe some of the strongest PR campaigns are built on authentic stories. Brands with genuine heritage, loyal customers and a clear sense of purpose often have a wealth of stories waiting to be told. The challenge isn't creating a narrative; it's finding fresh, relevant and culturally resonant ways to share it with modern audiences. Tiptree already occupies a special place within British food culture, and we're looking forward to helping bring its story to life through creative campaigns, strategic media relations and national storytelling opportunities. Looking Ahead We're excited to be working alongside the Tiptree team and supporting the next chapter of the brand's journey. The appointment further strengthens Orange's position within the food and drink PR sector and reflects our continued growth working with brands across food, drink, lifestyle and consumer markets. Watch this space for more updates as we begin rolling out activity for one of Britain's best-loved food brands.

TikTok and Instagram Management for Betta Alongside PR activity, Orange is managing Betta’s presence across TikTok and Instagram, creating platform-first content designed to grow brand awareness and audience engagement. Our support includes content creation, trend-led social strategy, community management and ongoing channel management, helping Betta establish a strong and consistent presence across both platforms.

Securing a spot in a national lifestyle magazine can feel like the ultimate validation for any kitchen designer, but it’s not just about having a beautiful project, it’s about using strategic PR for kitchen designers to support your business objectives. At Orange PR & Marketing, we’ve helped design professionals turn stunning kitchens into stories that editors at national lifestyle magazines and interior design publications can’t resist. Here’s our guide to getting your kitchen design projects featured in the media and in front of the right eyes. Tell a story, don’t just pitch a project Editors are drawn to narrative. A sleek countertop or a bespoke cabinetry layout is impressive, but what makes it compelling is the story behind it. Did the homeowner have a unique lifestyle need? Was there a challenge that required creative problem-solving? Framing your kitchen project around a human story makes it far more likely to capture editorial interest from lifestyle and interior design magazines. Enhance the opportunity by getting your client’s buy-in - if you can give editors a beautiful property, an interviewee who is briefed and ready, and all the project details it makes a very compelling story for design media and national lifestyle publications. High-quality visuals are non-negotiable Lifestyle magazines live and breathe visuals. Invest in professional photography that highlights both design details and overall ambiance. Think editorial shots, not just catalogue-style photos. Capture natural lighting, lifestyle elements (like a family cooking together), and unique design features. High-resolution images with multiple angles give editors options, increasing the chances of your kitchen design project being featured in national magazines or interior design media. Build Relationships with Editors PR isn’t just about press releases, it’s about relationships. Work with a PR agency specialising in interior design PR or kitchen designer marketing to identify the editors and writers covering home and lifestyle sections in magazines you want to target. Follow them on social media, engage with their work thoughtfully, and make sure your pitch is personal, relevant and concise. Editors receive dozens of submissions weekly (if not daily!). Standing out means showing that you understand their audience and editorial voice within home, interiors and kitchen design publications. Craft a targeted pitch A generic pitch won’t cut it. Focus on why this particular kitchen project matters to the magazine’s readers. Include the story, high-quality images, specifications and any kitchen design trends the project taps into such as sustainable materials, smart technology, or bold colour palettes. Keep the pitch succinct, visually appealing and easy to digest so editors can quickly assess the value of featuring your kitchen design project in lifestyle or interior design magazines. Leverage digital PR for added credibility National lifestyle editors often cross-reference online presence. Maintaining an updated, visually cohesive website and active social media channels, showcasing your kitchen projects, can increase credibility and support your digital PR and kitchen designer marketing strategy. Share behind-the-scenes content, client testimonials, and design insights. A strong digital footprint reinforces your expertise in kitchen and interior design and makes editors more comfortable featuring your work. Timing is everything Editorial calendars matter. Pitch seasonal projects ahead of time - think summer kitchens, Christmas-ready spaces, or trend-driven designs for the upcoming year. Understanding magazine deadlines and planning accordingly ensures your kitchen design projects are considered for upcoming lifestyle magazine features and interiors coverage when the editorial team starts sourcing stories. Measure, Learn, Repeat Finally, track your outreach efforts. Which editors respond? Which types of kitchens get attention? Use these insights to refine future pitches and strengthen your PR strategy for kitchen designers. PR is iterative; each success, or indeed rejection, is a learning opportunity to strengthen your approach to gaining press coverage in national lifestyle magazines and interior design media. Getting your kitchen design projects featured in national lifestyle magazines is a blend of storytelling, strategic relationships, and impeccable visuals. With a thoughtful interior design PR and marketing approach, your work can transcend the portfolio page and become a celebrated story in the national spotlight.
