Challenge
Garden products provide an opportunity for fresh beginnings. Mark’s Choice is Home Hardware’s line of premium garden tools and supplies, endorsed by industry expert and TV personality Mark Cullen. We worked on branding, positioning, and packaging for a wide range of products. It was important to convey quality, durability, as well as the growth and optimism provided by time spent in the garden.
