Aime, a food supplement brand, partnered with the food chain Cojean catering an exclusive menu that is at the same time tasty and healthy.

This partnership is also a great example of omnichannel collaboration, since both brands have a different focus: Aime as a DTC online brand and Cojean as a restaurant.

The sports studio Chez Simone partnered with the iconic Lacoste brand by creating a specific training “Powered by Lacoste”.
