1.

B2B CONSULTING

                 Bringing over ten years of sustainability, wellness, retail, creative and digital expertise to the table, Vertére is offering businesses the opportunity to benefit from this knowledge. We are thrilled to offer this to everyone from start ups to large companies, having worked with an array of business sizes already. Offering truly helpful counsel is one of our favorite things to do!

2.

CONTENT CREATION

                  One of the greatest opportunities we see for conscious brands is elevating their aesthetics. When a company operates mindfully and offers sustainable solutions, it naturally carries a powerful story. Yet too often the quality of the content doesn’t reflect that purpose. Creating compelling, visually rich narratives has always been a core focus for us. We’re excited to offer imagery, video, and creative direction that not only brings these stories to life but is also optimized for the platforms and channels where they’ll have the greatest impact.

3.

RETAIL SPACE CURATIONS

                  Helping businesses like Belmond's El Encanto create meaningful and effective physical spaces is a natural fit for us. With more than a decade of experience discovering and collaborating with ethical brands, we’re able to curate environments that truly reflect a company’s values. We’re also deeply involved in the design and execution of the spaces we shape, ensuring that every store is aligned with and elevated by the inventory it carries.

4.

EVENT PLANNING

                  In an increasingly digital world, we’re seeing a strong human desire to reconnect offline. The demand for meaningful, in-person experiences is growing rapidly, and we’ve had the privilege of bringing countless events to life. From Earth Day dinners to cocktail gatherings featuring organic producers like Ojai Roots, to collaborations with brand partners such as Avaline organic wines, we continue to create experiences that foster genuine connection and community.

5.

PARTNERSHIPS

                  Aligning your company with like-minded brands to gain greater exposure and authenticity is a strategy we’re deeply passionate about. We firmly believe that a rising tide lifts all boats, and we’ve seen firsthand that bringing exceptional brands together is one of the most effective forms of organic marketing. With our extensive network within the wellness and sustainability space, we love creating partnerships that amplify impact for everyone involved.

6.

DESIGN & DIGITAL

                  Crafting a cohesive digital presence that reflects the purpose of your brand is one of the most powerful opportunities we see for conscious companies. We believe that thoughtful design, across branding and websites creates clarity, trust, and a deeper connection with your audience. When these elements work together seamlessly, they become one of the most effective drivers of meaningful engagement. With years of experience in branding, UX, UI, and development, we bring a deep understanding of how purposeful digital experiences come to life.

7.

SUSTAINABILITY

                  Working at the intersection of sustainability, wellness, retail, and partnerships has been at the core of our work for more than 15 years. We believe that conscious practices are not just a philosophy but a powerful pathway to building brands that feel deeply aligned and future-focused. When sustainability is thoughtfully woven into every decision—whether in strategy, products, or community engagement—it becomes one of the most compelling differentiators a company can embrace. Our experience across this landscape allows us to guide brands in creating meaningful impact while remaining authentic, beautiful, and commercially sound.

LATEST WORK:

1. Rêve En Vert

2. El Encanto

3. Bloom Farm

          Rêve En Vert — was co-founded by Cora Hilts to be an aspirational platform for conscious solutions to modern living.

          Cora has run Rêve En Vert for the past ten years as a B2C platform, and is now known as one of the premier destinations for sustainable retail and living. She started Vertére when she realized the demand for B2B consulting that would touch upon the experiences of retail, consumer education, PR and marketing that isn’t often offered authentically in the world of ethical consumerism.

          El Encanto — is a luxury hotel in Santa Barbara, owned by the Belmond Group when we worked for them.

          El Encanto hired us to create a sustainable luxury retail space for them. An exciting opportunity, considering Belmond rarely outsource retail projects. The synergy between our commitment to sustainability and their dedication to creating a localized and ethical shopping experience worked perfectly. We created a space for them that was filled with all California based brands that matched the ethos and aesthetic of the hotel, as well as curating an incredible launch party with regenerative food and speakers.

          Bloom Farm — a beautiful, regenerative farm and guest house in Western Pennsylvania.

          We were asked by Bloom Farm to curate a new retail space that would reflect their ethos of small business and ethical production. We helped to source designers that fit that brief, managed the initial selection of products and went to help set up the store in person. We were also asked to create a meaningful event for them, and Cora brought over Gaz Oakley, Youtube sensation and chef turned farmer, for an incredible talk and stay. We also provided imagery and video creation for them.
