“We’re really impressed with the quality of the media coverage generated by the Sharp team around some of our key events at Folkestone Harbour. We saw a direct correlation between the media coverage and a widening of the demographic of visitors to our Wunder Harbour and Festive Market events.
“They really nailed the brief to increase awareness of the Folkestone Harbour proposition.”
“Since day one, Sharp has been relentless in understanding our needs from a PR perspective, going above and beyond each month to secure meaningful, articulate coverage that adds value to us as a business.
The KPI’s are constantly and consistently smashed, with Sharp always pushing for bigger and better. The team are warm and engaging, and a true pleasure to work with. We are so excited to be going into another year with Sharp by our side.”
“Kyrö Distillery Company being still a small challenger spirits brand in the UK market and globally, it was crucial for us to work with someone who has both the understanding of both our brand personality and our business needs but also the capability to punch above their weight and ours. After being convinced by their personality and insight in the pitching stage, Sharp Relations turned out to be even better than we had hoped for.
“We secured a lot of top quality visibility for our brand, worked with the kind of influencers and events that elevated our brand and all the while the communication and flexibility from Sharp’s team was top notch. I would and will recommend them to any challenger brand in the F&B industry.”
“Sharp were great at getting some really good coverage and actually out did Aldi’s own PR company 3 fold! They generated a lot of brand awareness in the media and social media, in a really short period of time.
“Also, not meaning to blow smoke, but finding Sharp PR has probs been our biggest win. We have used other people previously and also get approached a lot by other firms. But it’s a real fine line I find with PR and getting what you want and need, and it being meaningful, brand building and raising awareness. Lots of other agencies are happy to put you out in obscure places just to say you have been mentioned. The Sharp team aren’t like this and so this has been massively refreshing and a big win!”
“Sharp Relations has ensured we have had great press coverage; we’ve been featured in everything from The Times to glossy and weekly magazines, and they have helped us to engage key bloggers and influencers –it’s been phenomenal!
“We have got so many sales and contracts off the back of the press we have had as well as receiving global recognition as brand –we now have businesses from Asia, America and Canada all are interested in working with us.
“The results have been amazing, and we would absolutely recommend Sharp Relations!”
“Within the first few months working Sharp Relations, we saw an increase of 250% in our overall website sales. Last year, they generated over 100 pieces of positive digital coverage for the brand in the last quarter of the year, and this created an incredible 450% increase in sales, comparing that same Christmas period.
“We’re really pleased with the results that have been achieved by Sharp Relations. They deliver measurable metrics and always hit their KPIs.
“We would recommend Sharp Relations to any food businesses looking to build their brand, improve their visibility or drive sales and footfall.
“The team is efficient, knowledgeable and always does exactly what they say they will do, we really enjoy working with them.”
“Sharp Relations has been amazing. They smashed their targets, arranging fantastic trade, regional and national coverage for Produced in Kent. The team knows its stuff, is full of great ideas and has a Can-Do attitude. Their customer service is impeccable –there is always someone available to help – and their PR advice invaluable. I thoroughly recommend Sharp Relations to any business looking for solid and creative PR support.”
“Working with the team at Sharp Relations to kickstart our PR has been such a positive experience -one that garners great results across all areas every time.
“The working relationship we enjoy is led by AJ and her teams’ expertise across the industry, both regionally and nationally, and as a client, we always feel included in the decision-making process.
“The attention to detail is second to none, and the whole team is friendly and supportive. We are regularly offered exciting opportunities and ideas to open up our audience and exposure to the hospitality sector. We can always call upon the team individually to ask questions and get their help and reassurance.
“Sharp Relations really understand us as a business, and they expertly convey the sentiment and messages we want to share with the press about our product, through channels direct to the consumer, and to vital trade customers.”

“The Sharp team is extremely professional and very results driven. More than that, they bring new ideas to our business.”
“The team runs our PR and Comms throughout the year and manages the press office for our two global events; Great Taste and The World Cheese Awards. They are very hands on at live events throughout the year, bringing in TV crews and journalists from all over the UK, and the world.”
“Last year, The Guild of Fine Food communications activities were much more strategic, so we really know what we are measuring now. It’s been a huge success and we saw truly impressive results, that were recorded and reported back to us in a concise and user friendly format.”
“They have trusted relationships with key media and throughout the food and drink industry and have been an incredible value asset. Plus, we have really enjoyed having them as part of our team.”
It’s brilliant working with the Sharp relations team. They initially helped us shape and rebrand the business with a full strategic marketing plan and then undertook a 12 month PR project.”
“The results have been fantastic and have raised the profile of myself and the company enormously both in the media and in the wider food service industry.”
