The best B2B brand agencies in the UK in 2026.
Brand for B2B is different from brand for consumer. The best B2C brand work is forgettable in B2B (and vice versa). This list is the firms we would trust with a B2B SaaS rebrand, a fintech identity, or a serious brand positioning piece. We have included our own studio and been honest about where it fits and where it does not.
Methodology
How we built this list.
We started with B2B work that has won D&AD, Brand New, and Transform awards in the last three years, then cross-referenced with operator recommendations from the LDN Brand and B2B Marketing communities. We removed firms that have not shipped a B2B project in the last 12 months.
Conflict disclosure: ORRJO Creative Studio is in this category. We are listed alongside competitors. We have not gamed our own placement.
The 10 brand agencies we would trust with serious B2B work.
Pentagram
The most respected design partnership in the world. Each Pentagram project is led personally by one of the partners. The bar is high, the cost is high, the work is genuine craft. Very few B2B companies justify the budget, but those who do get something durable.
- Partner-led: real seniority on every project
- Heritage and craft second to none
- Consistently shipping work that wins awards
- Wait times of 6-12 months are common
- £250k is the floor, not the average
- Selective about projects: they choose you as much as you choose them
Best for: Series B+ B2B with serious budget and patience for craft-led work.
Koto
A modern brand consultancy with a strong B2B and tech bench. Less heritage than Pentagram, more accessible. Built brand systems for Airbnb, Bolt, OpenSea. Strong typographic and systems-design work.
- Genuinely modern visual language
- Strong systems thinking, scales well
- Has done serious B2B and tech work
- Smaller bench than Pentagram
- Less industrial design depth
- Tends to skew towards consumer-tech aesthetic
Best for: Tech-led B2B companies wanting a modern, system-thinking identity.
Ragged Edge
A B2B-leaning London consultancy with strong editorial chops. They publish their own commentary on category creation and positioning, which doubles as evidence of how they think. Real intellectual rigour behind the work.
- Real editorial and category-thinking depth
- Active publishing of their methodology
- Strong on positioning, not just visual identity
- Selective on clients
- Pricing not transparent
- Less suited to low-budget rebrands
Best for: B2B companies trying to create or claim a category, not just decorate one.
Made by Field
A smaller London studio with a strong tech and B2B portfolio. Combines brand identity with web design execution. Useful for companies that need both at once.
- Brand + web in one team
- Modern aesthetic without being trend-chasing
- Pricing more accessible than top-tier
- Smaller bench, capacity-constrained
- Less heritage than the big consultancies
- Has to defer to specialist partners on motion or industrial design
Best for: Growth-stage B2B that wants brand + web in one engagement.
Output
Specifically positioned for SaaS rebrand and brand systems. Useful for companies that have outgrown their startup identity and need something that scales without losing personality.
- Specific SaaS focus, not generalist
- Affordable relative to top-tier
- Strong on brand systems
- Less suited to non-SaaS B2B
- Smaller team
- Less editorial depth
Best for: SaaS companies that have outgrown their initial brand and need a system.
Studio Set
A smaller London studio doing crisp, modern identity work. Strong on type, less focused on brand strategy. Right when you have positioning sorted and need execution.
- Visually distinctive, modern work
- Strong on type and visual systems
- Quick turnaround relative to peers
- Lighter on strategy, heavier on execution
- Smaller portfolio depth
- Less suited to category-creation work
Best for: Companies with strong positioning that need visually distinctive identity execution.
Phable
A B2B-only brand consultancy. Smaller than Koto or Ragged Edge but specifically focused on B2B dynamics. Worth considering for SaaS companies that want focused expertise without enterprise pricing.
- B2B-only focus
- Operator-grade understanding of buyer dynamics
- Senior on every project (small team)
- Smaller portfolio than top-tier
- Less broad case study coverage
- Capacity-constrained
Best for: B2B SaaS that wants focused expertise from senior people.
ORRJO Creative Studio
Us. We run brand and creative inside a broader B2B revenue agency. Different model from pure brand consultancies: the brand work is one of four things we do (alongside lead gen, demand gen, intelligence). Best when you want brand connected to commercial outcome, not brand as art.
- Brand integrated with demand and lead gen
- Senior on every project
- UK pricing, global delivery
- Smaller pure-brand bench than dedicated consultancies
- Less suited to brand-as-art projects
- Best for B2B between £1M and £25M ARR
Best for: B2B companies that want brand tied to commercial outcomes, not brand for brand's sake.
DesignStudio
Larger consultancy with a tech and B2B bench. Did the Airbnb rebrand. More commercial than Pentagram, less editorial than Ragged Edge. Solid mid-tier choice.
- Strong portfolio across tech and B2B
- International team
- Bigger bench than boutiques
- Account team layer rather than senior-only
- Pricing varies a lot by office
- Less specialised B2B focus
Best for: Companies wanting tech-aware brand work from a larger consultancy.
Robot Food
Northern UK consultancy with strong B2B and challenger-brand work. More accessible pricing than London-only studios. Worth considering for companies that want serious craft without London tax.
- Northern UK pricing
- Strong challenger-brand and category-creation work
- Diversified portfolio (consumer + B2B)
- Less B2B-only focus
- Smaller B2B-specific portfolio than Phable or Output
- Travel logistics for London-based clients
Best for: B2B companies wanting good work without London-tier pricing.

FAQ
Anywhere from £25,000 for a small studio doing identity-only to £500,000+ for a partner-led top-tier consultancy doing full strategy, identity, system, and applications. Most growth-stage B2B SaaS sits between £40,000 and £150,000.
Three to nine months from kickoff to launch, depending on scope. Faster than that means corners are being cut. Slower than that means scope is bloated.
London has more depth for premium B2B work. Regional UK has better value for mid-market. The best work has been done from both. Pick based on the senior people, not the postcode.
Look at three things. The case studies they list (most recent, not historical). The seniors who will actually be on your project (ask by name). The methodology they will follow (ask for it documented, not described).
No. Pentagram, Koto, DesignStudio and Robot Food do consumer work too. They are on this list because their B2B work specifically meets the bar. The others are B2B-led.
