BEGINNINGS
Sunda is a sustainability consultancy agency specialising in support for purpose driven brands & changing industries for the better. We exist to work with those who want to step outside of the norm, and question the traditional ways of running business and building brands.
The project was founded in 2019 by myself, Jamie McIlhatton, in the beautiful city of Edinburgh after dedicating my Masters to researching the challenges & opportunities faced by small/medium enterprise (SMEs) in the UK, to adopt more sustainable business models.
The outcome of that research was an urge to gain first hand experience in what it is to operate a small business in the UK; pursuing both profitability and sustainability. After opening 8 hospitality venues since (5 still standing); I have daily empathy for the tough barriers facing smaller businesses in this country, but I also have vital experience in implementing the exact changes that I’d propose to you.
There will never be a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Every project is unique and I will work closely with you, at your pace, and within your budget. Planning for exciting change and overseeing the process. I’ll support you in communicating your brand direction to customers, ensuring it brings you the benefits you set out for. The goal is to define & create YOUR sustainability.
