About Us

We Are Crave.

Founded in 2009 by Saskia Brussaard, we are experts in PR, marketing and branding for food and agriculture.

For more than a decade, we have helped our clients to tell their story, get noticed and grow their business. 

We have moved the metre, changed minds and hearts, introduced Canadians to products, services and causes that matter.

Our clients come from all over the food and agriculture sector: food and agricultural commodity boards, farms and farmers, food and beverage manufacturers, Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG), wineries, breweries, distilleries and non-alcoholic beverages, restaurants, not-for-profit organizations, kitchenware and cookware and cookbook authors. 

We were the agency leading Canada’s participation in the United Nations International Year of Pulses culminating in Pulse Feast, a premiere event at the Design Exchange in Toronto that brought together farmers, food processors, media, activists, dietitians and other stakeholders who are passionate about global food issues and sustainability. 

We also helped Taste Canada – Canada’s Food Writing Awards –  grow into one of the most prestigious food writing awards in North America. 

We Are Crave are experts in food and agriculture. While we could do fashion or beauty PR, marketing and branding, we choose not to. 

With a desire to stand out from the big agencies, we aim to provide clients with a more personalized boutique agency experience. The senior team is hands-on and deeply involved and invested in your business.
