Our Name
Why are we called The Pollen Shop?
We get asked this more than any other question. Maybe we should have chosen something more direct or defining. It’s not an obvious name for a communications consultancy but we are not an obvious company.
To understand our name is to understand everything about our values, business model and the people we work with.
The Pollen Shop is an aspiration as well as our name.
Pollen is a small but a very powerful part of nature. It’s largely invisible and most people don’t notice it. But it plays a vital role in evolution. It is one of the universes great creative forces. Pollen is our inspiration.
We want The Pollen Shop to be a place where organisations can come to find a solution to a problem. We are a small company but we make a big impact by being creative, innovative and inclusive.
