FC Development Corp. Partners with The Artist Evolution as Agency of Record to Amplify The Farmer’s Cow Brand Across All Divisions

National Marketing Powerhouse to Drive Synergistic Growth, Building on Recent Transformative Partnerships

Norwich, CT – April 4, 2025 – FC Development Corp. (FCDC), the brand management and expansion entity for The Farmer’s Cow, proudly announces a landmark partnership with The Artist Evolution, a national marketing powerhouse, as the agency of record for The Farmer’s Cow brand. This strategic alliance marks a pivotal moment in FCDC’s growth and expansion phase, synergistically uniting all brand assets and divisions under a cohesive, cross-marketed strategy for the first time in the cooperative’s history.

This announcement follows two significant milestones in March 2025: a transformative partnership expansion between FCDC and The Farmer’s Cow, LLC, positioning FCDC as the brand management entity across all divisions, and a formal agreement with ShelfSpace Marketing, led by Tony Cusano, to spearhead new product development for the retail division. Together, these partnerships have set the stage for unprecedented momentum, with The Artist Evolution now poised to amplify The Farmer’s Cow’s presence in grocery stores, fast casual restaurants, and beyond.

The Artist Evolution, known for its innovative and results-driven marketing strategies, will oversee comprehensive brand marketing across The Farmer’s Cow’s retail distribution, fast casual restaurants, and energy development divisions. This partnership will significantly enhance brand visibility in major grocery chains like Whole Foods, Stop & Shop, and Big Y, where The Farmer’s Cow products are already established, and fuel the expansion of The Farmer’s Cow Calfé & Creamery, with major developments in the restaurant division—over six months in the making—set to be unveiled soon.

“By the end of our first meeting, every member of our executive team realized that The Artist Evolution was comprised of special and talented professionals, for the first time, we’re bringing all of The Farmer’s Cow’s divisions under a unified marketing strategy, and The Artist Evolution is the perfect partner to make that vision a reality,” said FC Development Corp. CEO, Edwin Molina. “We operate under the same core values – integrity, creativity, performance, and care – and know that we can together obtain operational growth and expansion at the highest combined levels – in support of our farmers and all stakeholders.”

The Artist Evolution brings a proven track record of crafting impactful campaigns that resonate with diverse audiences, making them an ideal fit to elevate The Farmer’s Cow’s mission of connecting communities to the land through quality, locally sourced products. This partnership will not only strengthen the brand’s foothold in existing markets but also pave the way for expansion to new regions throughout the country.

“We are thrilled to officially partner with The Farmer’s Cow brand and all stakeholders involved, by leading the marketing for their exciting new growth initiatives,” said Derek Champagne, Founder & CEO – The Artist Evolution.  “At The Artist Evolution, we are passionate about working with brands that not only have a strong story but also create meaningful impact. The Farmer’s Cow, being farmer-owned, represents a deep commitment to sustainability, local agriculture, and reshaping the future of the food and dairy category. Our team is honored to help amplify their message and bring greater awareness to the incredible work they are doing. We look forward to driving results that showcase their values, innovation, and dedication to a more sustainable future—one that directly supports local farmers and enhances the quality of products available to their communities.”
