Ashley Gray

Founder & Director, Array Brands

Hi, I’m Ash - founder of Array Brands, and someone who thrives at the intersection of strategy, creativity, and connection.

I've spent the past decade in events, communications and brand. I helped turn the World Butchers' Challenge into a truly global competition. I also founded the Global Meat Alliance, because the industry's leaders kept tackling the same problems on opposite sides of the world without ever talking to each other.

Along the way I've built identities from a blank page, written the words, and wrangled multi-day international events with more moving parts than I'd care to count. Array is the umbrella for all of it.

Array is growing, and I'm after more of the collaborative, ambitious work I love, in the global meat sector and well beyond it. My favourite part is helping an organisation see the bigger picture, then bringing everyone else along for the ride.

The Extended Array

Array isn't a big agency, and that's deliberate. Behind it is a close-knit crew I trust around the world: event managers, designers, social media and PR specialists, and a few very sharp strategists. I bring in whoever the job needs, when it needs them.

Through years of hands-on work with leading organisations in the global meat sector, including national bodies, brands, and international alliances, I’ve built strong relationships with decision-makers, creatives, and changemakers across the industry.

That network is part of what sets Array apart: not just what we do, but who we know and how we work together.
