The Corporate Presence has designed a wide variety of deal toys and financial tombstones centered on the food and beverage industries. The transactions we have helped commemorate over the years also encompass a range of players in those industries. These include retailers, wholesalers, distributors, packagers, producers, food equipment manufacturers and suppliers, brewers, dairy farmers, as well as processors and delivery services.

You’ll also find in the photo galleries beginning above deal toys associated with drinks and cuisines of regions throughout the world. Among others you’ll see, for instance, deal tombstones celebrating the acquisitions of a Wisconsin-based cheese company, a provider of bubble tea in China, and a renowned Belgian chocolate brand, as well as a private placement involving a Norwegian salmon farm, and an initial public offering for a Japanese sushi restaurant chain.

Also included in these galleries are designs that, though not involving either food or beverages, still took their inspiration from them. These include deals and transactions that from such far-flung industries as insurance, data acquisition, and electric power supply.

Finally, you will also find examples of commemoratives involving organizations in the food and beverage industry that are not related to financial transactions. Among those are awards and recognition pieces celebrating product launches, loyalty program rollouts, and milestone openings for retailers and restaurant chains.
