Provenance
at Honey and Fox

Consumer trust drives growth, particularly in the food and beverage industry.

There is a growing curiosity among consumers about the source of the food and beverages they buy. For most, it’s important to know and trust the origin of the product – seeking assurances that what they buy "is what it says it is." This is where the importance of provenance storytelling comes in.

What customers are looking for

Authenticity

Knowing that product claims are true

Provenance

Knowing the origins of the product (who, where and how)

Traceability

Knowing where it came from and how it got to them

Using storytelling to wrap provenance information into is a powerful tool to communicate with consumers. It transports them and provokes an emotional response.
The impact of provenance stories can be amplified and multiplied by using technologies and platforms that not only prove authenticity but also invite the audience to engage with and become part of the story themselves.

The Provenance Plus System

We researched to find out how agriculture, food, and beverage businesses were creating and telling their provenance stories. We wanted to know what the critical parts of the story are, how the stories are put together, and how, where, and when to tell provenance stories for the greatest impact.

Based on this research we created our Provenance PlusTM System to help others learn how to create and tell their own stories.
