We are a licensing agency and consultancy with over 30 years of experience in the licensing industry.
Together with our extensive contacts in manufacturing and retail and our legal, financial, marketing, digital and trend-spotting expertise Ampersand offers a full package of licensing and brand consultancy.
Experience Having worked as licensee and licensor with over 100 designers and brands, we have a wealth of knowledge and huge amounts of experience to launch new brands and increase awareness of existing brands.
Approval Process Understanding We fully understand the approval process from both manufacturer’s and designer’s viewpoints. We know how important it is to have quick feedback from designers to keep projects on track for launch dates.
Flexibility and Reasonability We appreciate the need for all parties to be reasonable and flexible with each other and aim for all our work to be a pleasant experience for all involved.
Feedback and Collaboration Feedback between parties is crucial, and collaboration between co-licensees can be extremely valuable to everyone. This is utmost in our minds when we take on licensees and licensors.
Harmonious Work Environment It’s very important to us that everyone works together harmoniously.
Quality and Ethics We are keen to only work with good quality products that have an ethical supply chain with due consideration to sustainability and minimizing carbon footprint whenever possible.
Enthusiasm We are passionate about excellent design and quality, interesting and useful products.
Common Sense We take a long-term view for the benefit of all parties. We’re not interested in “over licensing” for a quick win and wherever possible avoid crossover with existing lines.
