Cocoon Corporate celebrates 20 years with a new website from Zinc

As we mark our 20th year in business at Zinc, we were delighted to meet and support another local enterprise that is also celebrating 20 wonderful years! As part of their anniversary year, Cocoon Corporate were looking for an all-new website. We were delighted that they chose us to refresh and improve their online presence. 

Cocoon Corporate has been supporting businesses in Northamptonshire and beyond with bespoke corporate gifting for 20 years. 

Amanda McManus, Co-Owner of Cocoon Corporate, added: “We wanted to work with a fellow Northamptonshire company. Our team live here, we are based here, and we are passionate about supporting local, so the fact that Zinc Digital is based in Northamptonshire was a huge bonus. We get lots of ongoing online support but can also pop in if we want to chat to the team or have any questions and want to chat face to face.” 

Cocoon’s new site was designed to create a smooth and simple user experience for their customers. They wanted a bright and beautiful design that matched their brand identity, kept users engaged and allowed them to order with ease. They wanted to highlight some of their most unique selling points, such as the bespoke gifting services and Staff Rewards Hub. Our design team and developers worked together to create a site that balanced all these needs, ready for the upcoming Easter rush. 

Joe Zielinski, Zinc’s co-owner and director, said: “The digital landscape was very different when both our companies first launched so it is fitting to be celebrating our 20th years in business by working together on this exciting new project. From the outset, we knew Cocoon Corporate needed a platform that was visually engaging, easy to use, and adaptable to their business needs. Seeing the impact the site has already had is incredibly rewarding, and we look forward to supporting them with their ongoing digital strategy.”

Since going live Cocoon Corporate’s website has seen a 10% uplift in traffic, generating both orders and longer-term bespoke enquiries for Easter as well as for their Staff Rewards Platform.

Louise Cowley, co-owner of Cocoon Corporate, said: “In the leadup to Easter we typically source around 4,000 Easter Treats  including hampers, eggs and chocolates and thanks to our new website, which is easy to navigate and use, our Easter sales and orders are already up, so we are really excited about the year ahead.

“Our previous website was outdated and lacked flexibility. We wanted a fresh, user-friendly platform, and Zinc Digital delivered exactly that. Our new website is vibrant, modern, easy to navigate, and its launch coincides with one of our peak seasons, Easter. The feedback has already been fantastic, and we’re excited to continue working with Zinc on our SEO strategy. This has proved the perfect birthday present.”

At Zinc, we’re always excited to be a part of a business’ next steps – whether that’s a startup taking their first steps or an establish business hoping for a refresh. Nevertheless, it’s been especially special for us to work alongside a company in the same stage as us. 

Rob Bradley, our Head of Business Development from Zinc Digital said: “As both our companies are celebrating our 20th anniversaries, this collaboration is particularly special and showcases the strength of local businesses in Northamptonshire and the power of digital transformation in driving success.”
