A partner to make your mission reality.

We are Containr Affairs, an office for strategy and branding. Our team of creatives think, make and build for bright entrepreneurs and marketing executives who want to take the lead. Whatever position your brand is currently in, we help you identify where to go next.

Acclaimed for three practice areas, we operate as follows;

Compass

We start by researching cultural shifts that map out the universe your business plays in and how this affects your actions. We connect with your ambitions through conversation before (re)shaping your brand fundamentals, which will lead to clarity, underline culture and foster your ambitions.

Creation

Your brand is a sum of all parts. How it looks and feels. How it talks and sounds, and how it tastes and smells. In this phase we bring fundamentals to life and create you a proper stage performance. Our studio executes creativity without boundaries, to make sure your story is admired on paper, on screen and in-store.

Content

For brands who need to stay relevant on a daily basis, our studio offers high quality and fast production of brand journalism, imagery and graphic design across all channels.

We believe in longevity.

Since 2001 we have delivered results for bars, bodegas and boutique hotels, beer, booze and beverage brands, buildings and building companies, beauty brands and bespoke perfume houses. With most of our clients we have built lasting relationships. Others even became partners in business. Talk to us about your next move.

What clients say about us

"Containr Affairs helped us creating a unique and refreshing spatial design and solid brand identity for our first hotel that feels familiar, established and like it's already around forever"

Jan-Maarten de Reus

Co-Founder Supernova

“I have worked with Containr Affairs for over 15 years. Their key strength lies in the ability to translate a briefing into a practical execution with a business entrepreneurial mindset. They truly excel in design, especially packaging and are highly experienced in strategy”

Thom Bartelse

CEO Bobby's

“I worked with a couple of agencies, but Containr produced the most standout creative work. Our customers are overwhelmingly positive about our brand. They offer a personal touch, have a great understanding of what a client needs and are able to translate this into genius designs. A rare combination”

Wai-Man Lo

CEO Indonesia

“Containr Affairs has been a solid partner in creating a world-class experience with our Magnum Pleasure Store in Amsterdam. Their creativity, combined with high quality execution, created a huge and measurable success, which has resulted in roll-outs to various key countries”

Joost Houben

Marketing Director Refreshment Unilever Benelux

“The journey of a strong brand calls for a lot of trial-and-error, a really good product, patience and the courage to be different. But without the creativity, direction, knowledge, stubbornness and honesty from an agency, you’ll still be wandering in the desert. That’s why we’re so happy to have Contaínr Affaìrs as our guide in this journey”

Marcel den Ouden

Co-Founder Chez Jan

“Containr thoroughly understood our DNA and translated this into a next level brand identity”

Jeroen van Eeghen

CEO vaneeghen

“Containr Affairs has made all the difference in overcoming our future challenges. These challenges called for a very subtle approach and Containr Affairs have simply exceeded all expectations by combining our business ambitions with brand thinking. If you are willing to provide them with the freedom to create, they can move mountains for you”
