How Harmless Harvest Strengthened Its Digital Shelf with Visual Consistency and Ease

When it comes to food and beverage marketing, the way a product looks online can make or break a sale. For Harmless Harvest, known for its organic coconut water and plant-based drinks, consistency isn’t just a design preference – it’s a reflection of their values.

The team was dealing with a growing lineup of SKUs and a refreshed packaging system, and they began to notice gaps across their digital shelf. Some product images were outdated; others lacked the visual polish their premium positioning deserved. The challenge? Fixing it all without overloading an already stretched staff.

“Right now, we’ve gone through a lot of redesign in the past two years of our packaging portfolio and we have seen that some places some of the images are lacking to be updated…we were not getting the right consistency of quality of imagery, quality of color consistency as our customers would expect for the premium product that we’re offering,” said Carlos Janglas, Design Director at Harmless Harvest.

Seeking Simplicity and Consistency at Scale

Harmless Harvest needed a better way to create and manage product content – one that didn’t rely on costly photo shoots or stretch their internal resources. Their goal was simple: ensure every product looked as good online as it did on the physical shelf, with minimal back-and-forth and no compromise on quality.

As Harmless Harvest is deeply intentional about brand presentation, everything—from the tone of their pink coconut water to the size of bubbles on the label—needed to be captured just right.

Partnering with Syndigo to Get it Right

Syndigo stepped in with Enhanced Content and CGI image creation capabilities, providing a flexible, collaborative approach that allowed Carlos and the team to generate accurate, retailer-ready assets across their portfolio – fast.


“For us, the Syndigo team has been incredibly helpful. It’s made our work a lot easier throughout the process. They have been very good about going the extra mile to make sure our product images are just right,” said Janglas.

Impact from the Start

With support from Syndigo, Carlos and the team accelerated content product for over 30 SKUs. The result? Visual consistency across channels, fewer internal bottlenecks, and more time for the team to focus on high-priority initiatives.

Syndigo has helped us take the weight off the team internally to turn around, I would say it’s almost over 30 SKUs of all the different angles. And for us being able to focus on what really needs our time and we can use our time efficiently and effectively.

Creative Direction, Harmless Harvest

Because Syndigo’s platform supports both creation and syndication, Harmless Harvest didn’t have to chase down retailers or manage multiple systems. Everything was streamlined across the platform, from creation to distribution.

Building a Cohesive Digital Shelf

Now, Harmless Harvest is taking a more holistic approach to its digital shelf, working with retail partners like Costco and Stargate to upgrade imagery and align across platforms. Their goal is to create a consistent, up-to-date brand experience, wherever shoppers discover them.

“I think Syndigo will continue to be a key partner maintaining our cohesive brand digital shelf presence and just ensuring that we’re getting the right and most up to date imagery and files across all our all the different platforms. We are very eager to see the impact that Syndigo has on our project for upgrading our whole digital shelf presence and really looking forward to seeing how the new CGI images once finished,” said Janglas.



Harmless Harvest simplified content creation and raised the bar for visual consistency, delivering speed and improved processes at scale, ensuring their digital shelf was as compelling as the physical one.
