What we do

We are not a marketing agency. We are your consumer business unit.

Title

01

You focus on your science

Keep your commercial ag relationships, enterprise pipeline, and R&D roadmap. That's your lane — we will never crowd it.

02

We build and operate your consumer business

Brand identity. Shopify eCommerce. Klaviyo email. San Antonio fulfillment. Retail outreach. Content and digital marketing. We run it — not just build it.

03

Both sides grow together

Consumer traction validates your product at scale. And an active consumer market makes you far more attractive to the enterprise partners you're already chasing.

WHAT WE BRING

Everything a consumer business needs. Already built. Already running.

Most partners could hire a brand agency, a fulfillment company, a digital marketing firm, and a retail sales rep separately — and still not get what we provide.

One partnership. One aligned incentive.

OUR PORTFOLIO

From commercial agriculture to the consumer market

Every product in the Organic REV ecosystem arrived with serious science and commercial  credentials and zero consumer story. Here's what we found — and what we built.

PARTNER BRANDS - EXCLUSIVE CONSUMER RIGHTS

COMMERCIAL CREDENTIALS

Proprietary marine microalgae-based biostimulant with extensive commercial agriculture trial data.  Signal Biologics pursues major enterprise partnerships globally.

WHAT WE BUILT

Consumer brand, DTC eCommerce and retail positioning. Exclusive consumer arm for Signal Biologics.  New sku's including a pre-diluted RTU spray formulation in development.

COMMERCIAL CREDENTIALS

Used professionally by high-end turf managers on golf courses and real-turf playing fields and stadiums.  Marketed commercially as Turf Pro with minimal awareness outside of regional pro turf circles.

WHAT WE BUILT

Exclusive consumer program for all DAKOTA Products.   Fully developed consumer brand, ecommerce, full social and content creation, email list development and marketing, retail and merchandising programs.

HCO product development & co-owned brands

ORIGIN

Developed in partnership with DAKOTA Peat. HCO designed concept, formulation, bottles/labels, branding and marketing in-house.  HCO bottles and distributes. 

WHAT WE BUILT

Full turnkey product development, brand identity, bottling, DTC + retail strategy, marketing, sales and distribution from the ground up.  On-site sampling programs and bundle development. 

ORIGIN

HCO innovated the 1lb consumer bag format allowing DAKOTA's professionally-validated product to establish new houseplant/small grower consumers. Designed entirely in-house.

WHAT WE BUILT

Full turnkey sku development from concept to market.  HCO tested concept, and handled formulation, labels, branding and marketing in-house.  HCO bags, markets and distributes.

COMING SOON - 
AMP RTU Spray Bottle.

HCO-designed ready-to-use spray formulation of AMP Microalgae.  Convenient pre-diluted spray bottle will open AMP to the indoor plant market and expand the brand to more casual houseplant enthusiasts.  HCO is leading the design process and will handle bottling, distribution, marketing and sales.

Partner Inquiry

Your product works. 
Building a consumer business around it
 is a different challenge entirely.

Building a consumer brand from scratch — the eCommerce infrastructure, the content, the retail 

relationships, the email list, the fulfillment operation, the advertising — takes years and significant capital investment in a market that operates nothing like commercial agriculture.

 

Most product developers who try it either spend money with agencies who don't understand their product, burn time learning a business that isn't their core competency, or simply leave the consumer opportunity on the table while they focus on what they're good at.

 

We are the alternative. Hill Country Organics builds and operates the consumer side as your partner — 

not as an agency you hire, not as a buyer who takes your product from you. We grow it together.

 

Partner Profile 01

Commercially proven. Consumer story untold.

Your product has a track record in professional agriculture, commercial turf, or large-scale horticulture. The science is validated. The end users are real. But the consumer market hasn't heard about it yet — and you haven't had the time, team, or budget to reach them

Partner Profile 02

Strong science. Category still emerging.

Your efficacy data is compelling. The research is real. But the commercial market is still developing and the consumer category hasn't been defined yet. We want to be early. If the science is solid, we will build the consumer brand before the category gets crowded.

WHAT EVERY PARTNER RECEIVES ON DAY ONE

A complete consumer business operation, a 35,000+ subscriber organic gardening audience, and a team that has built this before — ready to go to work on your product.
