Our global network
This year, we're celebrating 90 years
From 1936, at the time before supermarkets where products were only sold over the counter, to 2026 where shoppers use everything from stores, home delivery and social media. CPM has always been at the forefront of helping brands grow and sell more in an ever-changing world.
For 90 years we've helped to unlock the sales potential of some of the world's most loved & successful brands, earning a reputation for being ‘Famous for Sales.’
Explore our story below and see how we've evolved through every decade. From pioneers in UK field sales and merchandising, to international leaders in data insight and multi-channel solutions though our Ai driven Liquid Approach™. Discover how we continuously adapt to changing markets to deliver results for our clients.
The Beginning
Before supermarkets, trolleys and self service, everything was sold over the counter at local shops.
Our founder, Bede Egerton, had a simple but powerful idea. It would transform how brands and retailers operated forever:
"It can't be bought if it isn't there,"
"What if brands had their own salespeople out on the road, helping ensure products were stocked, visible and selling?"
So Counter Product Marketing (CPM) was born...
We worked with few clients including Mars, who had just come to the UK a few years earlier - and who are still clients today!
The Age of Consumer Brands
After a period of austerity, people were eager for products. Many new brands launched.
Self service began. Visibility and availability were key
CPM became a trusted extension of a brand’s sales force. We understood local stores and our small teams helped build distribution and visibility shop by shop, town by town - all across the UK.
A Ground Breaking New Division
The advent of mass brand launches, TV promotion and supermarket revolutions.
Taking advantage of the rapid change CPM created 'Below-the-line Promotion' (BLP) - An early example of in-store experiential and brand engagement - delivered solely by skilled women. An early demonstration of our inclusive and pioneering approach to our employees.
CPM represented major consumer brands including Colgate-Palmolive. Tactical campaigns and sales soared.
85% of CPM UK's £1m revenue came from women
A Powerhouse through Acquisition & Growth
Supermarkets expanded, shopping centres appeared, and new technologies like barcode scanning transformed store operations.
From POS production to call centres, we widened our offering. We bought companies, merged with companies, went ‘public’. Then we were bought by Omnicom in 1989.
Expanding across Europe and Australasia we helped clients in the UK, Europe and beyond operate at scale - supporting multi-national brands in multiple markets and channels.
Digital Data-Driven Expansion
Mobile shopping begins. Retailers enter the digital era.
We expanded into digital, experiential and data-driven activation.
Our insight team 'Axis' was established (now 'Data Science') We were the first in our industry to create a Data warehouse and significant technology investment.
Our offering widened further. We created our experiential & live events agency Hyphen and our unrivalled retailer engagement app*shopt, along with Mystery shopping and Shopper Marketing.
Retail Becomes Omni-channel Overnight
The Global pandemic hits. Online grocery surges. Ai and data reshape retail.
CPM helped global brands connect with shoppers everywhere
Our data-led ‘Liquid Approach™’ was launched. It enabled us to uniquely deploy resources across digital and physical channels in a smarter, more effective way for better client results.
Always Evolving to Deliver A Better Way
Our Liquid Approach™️ is now AI driven. Embedded into all our services, solutions and channels.
By uniting strategy, data, technology and amazing people in one adaptive model, we can now unlock a brand’s commercial potential by finding and realising untapped sales, growth and efficiency at every stage we influence.
