Crane Hobson and Company LLC Information

Crane Hobson was founded in 1977 as a general recruiting firm. In 1991 we “discovered” the Point of Purchase Industry while recruiting a controller for one of our clients. We fell in love with the industry and decided to shift our business model. We divested ourselves of the general recruiting practice and have focused solely on the Shopper Marketing industry since 1991. Today Crane Hobson is a boutique Search Firm developing markets strictly in the Shopper Marketing, Point-of-Purchase Display (POP) and Fixture industries - that is all we do. We are well respected throughout the Industry with an in-house developed data base in excess of 11,500 people. We respect and value the clients and candidates we serve. Our clients include divisions of multinational Fortune 500 Companies, international corporations, existing industry leaders and upstart firms seeking to expand. We have been engaged by several major International leaders in the Shopper Marketing Industry to identify the talent they require to open a United States office. We also serve our clients in a broader leadership advisory role, offering services including Employee Assessment, Leadership Consulting and professional development to senior management.
