Improving E-Commerce for a Hand-Harvested Sea Salt

Jacobsen Salt

Growth Strategy & Innovation

Launch Amazon so that it fits within the supply capacity and margins of their normal retail channels

When it comes to making salt by hand, there’s no one better than Jacobsen Salt Co. in Portland, OR. Expanding distribution along with a strong following on social media had created a demand for this local brand to hit consumers all across the United States. They had considerable online sales via their personal webstore, but when it came to Amazon, they weren’t yet able to capture their unique brand experience and selling point on the platform. With over 50% of all sales online conducted through Amazon today, there was a huge amount of untapped potential for Jacobsen Salt.
