08 Feb CASE: Hendrick’s Gin
Hendrick’s Gin, who hasn’t heard of it? Originally from Scotland, the eye-catching black apothecary bottle is now known – and loved – all over the world. To learn more about the Dutch target group, Hendrick’s The Netherlands (represented by Maxxium NL) asked us to research how House of Treats members experience gin.
Goals of the collaboration
Get a clear image of the current market, including the following two main goals:
1. Gain valuable insight on Hendrick’s Gin’s brand-perception by measuring the brand’s awareness, association and sentiment.
2. Analyze the customer journey per moment of consumption. What motivations and barriers do we see?
- Behaviors with respect to gin at home
- Behaviors with respect to gin outdoors
“It’s clear from the results that the Hendrick’s Gin box really created a connection with our high potential target group! With these insights we’re now able to apply the right nuances in our communication and gain even more knowledge on the relevant moments of consumption. It’s so valuable for our positioning within The Netherlands!”
