Iowa Premium® Branding Campaign Shows a Better Way to Beef
The Work
Craft a creative platform and compelling brand story that will drive confidence, engagement and value in Iowa Premium products.
The Challenge
Part of National Beef, Iowa Premium is a small, regional brand that procures and processes high-quality, corn-fed, Black Angus cattle raised specifically by farm families in Iowa and surrounding states. With a strong Midwest connection and positioning in the top-end beef market, Iowa Premium has an amazing story to tell.

Bringing Premium Beef to Life
We work with a food photographer and stylist to create unique appetite appeal for Iowa Premium products. Photos are used in core customer selling pieces and POS offerings.
Telling the Brand Story
At the heart of “A better way to beef” are the dedicated, skilled people behind this brand – and that’s a story we love to help tell. Video and photo shoots at the processing plant and on the farm provide valuable content that replaces onsite tours during the pandemic and helps humanize an authentic, curated, handcrafted product.
