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.)
