SOBA CIRCUS:

LAUNCHING A NO/LO WITH nic fanciulli

  • World renowned DJ Nicholas Fanciulli came to us to help build a new no/lo drinks brand. Yet with limit resource, and immense competition, we knew we needed to build something radically different. 

  • We positioned the brand as ‘We believe rules are meant to be broken’ and named it ‘Soba Circus’. This approach sees us enter the NO/LO with a bolder, more rebellious spirit and calling out the bullsh*t rules of big alcohol. A breath of fresh of air in a category which too often plays it safe. We helped them with business strategy, product positioning, naming, brand identity and comms. The new product launches in Q1 2026. 

  • Launched in 2026

  • "“DEFIANT HAVE HELPED US RIP UP THE RULE BOOK & CREATE SOMETHING TRULY UNIQUE IN THE NO/LO CATEGORY. WE WERE SO IMPRESSED THAT WE MADE THEM PARTNERS IN THE BUSINESS”
