Business Development


CO-OPPORTUNITIES, Inc. creates, develops and activates relevant, realistic, sustainable and profitable BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT: in all channels of trade: with and for clients (and partners) that typically face a great competitive set and often have what seems (to them) to be insurmountable challenges to their success. Although much of our client work has been with/for large companies, we also specialize in helping "start up" and "young" companies create, develop and implement a sound foundation for quantum leap growth.


Our highly respected, highly acclaimed areas of expertise include, but are not limited to,

  • Brands and Branding
    (i.e. From brand creation, development and implementation: to co-branding, sub-branding, line extensions, ccomponent branding: extending brand reach through alternative channels of distribution, intercept marketing and more: we are proud of our stellar reputation in all areas of branding.)
  • Optimizing Change
    (i.e. We led in the development and execution of numerous high-profile restaurant brands into their conversion to retail consumer packages in supermarkets: in frozen, refrigerated and shelf-stable states.) 
  • Strategic Alliances
    (i.e. We facilitated a historical alliance amongst Anheuser-Bush,  Coca-Cola, Ecolab, Kraft, McLane and NACS with our creation of the NACS CAFÉ. CAFÉ = Center for Achieving Foodservice Excellence)
  • Non-Traditional Business Initiatives 
    (i.e. We are responsible for McDonald's going into Walmart.)
  • Strategic Planning and Implementation
    (i.e. From Cirque du Soleil to Fairmont Hotels to The Coca-Cola Company to McDonald's to TGI Friday's to The Sara Lee Corporation to Nestle Foods to Kroger Supermarkets to Exxon and more: we have led the strategic planning process for hundreds of companies in a wide range of channels and verticals.)
