Taking the hassle out of cooking for more then 70 years.

With over 70 years of heritage in home canning and preservation, Mrs. Wages set out to modernize its legacy brand and expand its market presence. The FY24 goal was ambitious: exceed $20 million in seasonal sales while driving category expansion into pectin products at major retailers.

Challenge

As Mrs. Wages' loyal Boomer customer base began to age out of the category, the brand faced the challenge of remaining relevant to a new generation of home cooks and DIY food enthusiasts. With increased competition from trend-driven, digitally native brands and limited traditional media resources, the team needed to modernize the brand's presence and storytelling to attract younger audiences without losing its heritage appeal.
