Lejonet & Björnen

Staying front-of-shelf with design that doesn’t expire

In a fast-moving category where packaging ages quickly and shelf space is brutal, Lejonet & Björnen needed more than taste to stay relevant. Since the mid-2000s, their edge has come from knowing when to refresh, not just guessing. That’s why our collaboration is built around Design Lifetime Management™ (DLM): a model that predicts when design starts losing impact, so we act before sales slip.


Strategic Partner Since 2005

  • Design Lifetime Management™: to anticipate packaging fatigue and intervene before it costs sales.

  • Three full redesigns: timed for peak relevance, not reactive damage control.

  • Limited/seasonal editions: for sales spikes without brand dilution.

  • Brand strategy, visual identity & guidelines: for consistent execution across every channel.

  • Content, product photography, and web: to drive sell-in and consumer interaction, not just aesthetics.

Why it worked

  • We timed design changes before fatigue hit. Most brands react after sales dip. We acted early and stayed visible.

  • We forecasted performance, not just reported it. Profit tells you the past. DLM helps decide the next move.

  • We funded winners. Instead of chasing low-margin volume, we invested in SKUs and formats with the strongest long-term return.

  • We designed for everywhere. Each packaging system worked across shelf, screen, and service, not just in Photoshop.

  • We stayed ahead of competitors. DLM gave the brand lead time, not reaction time.
