Love Struck exists to make brilliant blended cold drinks that brighten people’s day. Our ready-to-blend frozen bases whizz up in an instant, with no chopping, no mess and no waste, making them an effortless way to serve feel-good drinks customers love. We’re a drinks partner to over 8,000 cafés, gyms and hotels across the UK, and you’ll even find us in Australia! We’re proud to be B Corp certified too, which means sustainability is at the heart of everything we do.
We started at Borough market in London 20 years ago, and the focus is now on growing our D2C channel (www.love-struck.com), developing our drinks range, and pushing into the US!
Key People
Jules Canterbury
I started life as a planner at a top London Agency in the early noughties - the best training for a recently hatched psychology grad! After a few years working on award-winning campaigns I took a leap of faith and started my own maternity lingerie brand. After 12 roller-coaster years, I managed a successful exit so that we could take the well-trodden path out of London into the country. Then, when the pandemic hit, I was the obvious choice to help Love Struck launch their Direct-to-Consumer channel (ie, the founder's wife!). It was an obvious strategic move, particularly when faced with the decimation of the foodservice sector during the various lockdowns. DTC is now a growing, and crucially - profitable channel for the business - something we're very proud of given the sky rocketing cost of acquisition. I use my analytical, data-driven approach AND big-picture thinking to continue to give customers the best experience they can, from first touchpoint to final sip of their smoothie.
