The new division will manage all aspects of brand development including: conceptual ideation, creative and packaging design, flavor development and product procurement, financial projections and business plans, acquisition and exit strategies, and sales and marketing tactics.

"It's an exciting time for us at Blackheath as we are the first and only independently owned outsourced sales infrastructure with a national footprint." Harkins goes on to explain, "We are taking another innovative step in the industry by becoming the first comprehensive brand-development agency that has a proprietary sales infrastructure at its disposal. Our independent ownership structure is the fundamental point-of-differentiation that sets us apart from any other agency in the industry."
