What Meet & Potato does

Meet & Potato is a privately held UK creative events agency headquartered in Liverpool, with a second facility in Manchester. Founded in 2011, the firm delivers integrated event production, creative content, video production, graphic design, copywriting, and live-streaming services for large enterprise clients across retail, automotive, hospitality, energy, and professional services. The agency's technology stack centers on broadcast-quality virtual production (a purpose-built COVID-safe studio in Manchester), immersive experiences using VR, AR, and Mixed Reality (including Magic Leap for automotive brand activations), motion graphics, VFX, 2D and 3D animation, and a proprietary dedicated event application for pre-, during-, and post-event communications. All services are delivered by a small team of approximately 9 named creatives and producers.

Meet & Potato operates a project-based professional services model with quote-driven pricing tied to scope, scale, technical complexity, and production values. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales combined with an event-driven portfolio showcase, where case studies, client testimonials, and award-winning work on the company website, Instagram, and LinkedIn serve as the primary demand-generation mechanism. Long-tenured anchor relationships — notably Dunelm (15 years), Poundland (nearly a decade), and Holland & Barrett (10+ years) — anchor recurring revenue, alongside marquee one-off engagements for clients such as Mercedes-Benz Vans UK, Magnet, Motorpoint, Bensons for Beds, Beauty Bay, Grenade, Mersey Maritime, Moto, Octopus Energy, and Hotel Chocolat. The agency is founder-owned and managed by Jon Kelly (Founder & CEO) and Karen Clarkson (Managing Director), with no external investors, parent company, or M&A activity disclosed, and operates exclusively within the United Kingdom.
