360 PRMonroe, NH-based Pete and Gerry’s, which owns popular brand Nellie’s Free Range eggs, is the fastest growing organic egg brand in the country.

360PR will now lead a multi-faceted communications program that will focus on raising awareness of Pete and Gerry’s brands by educating consumers on the importance of humane eggs, as well as the distinction between free range eggs and brands that simply tout their products as “cage free.”

The account will be managed by 360’s healthy living practice leader and senior vice president Victoria Renwick.

Other food/beverage clients include Crabbie’s Ginger Beer, Good Food Made Simple, illy, Juicy Juice, Stonyfield and Verde Farms, among others.
