Mars & Co.

Global strategy consulting with exclusive engagements

Overview

Mars & Co specializes in strategy consulting with a selective, exclusivity-driven model. It works by providing high-value strategic and operational advice to a small number of clients in any given industry, often Fortune 100-sized companies, on a long-term exclusive basis. The team consists of about 250 generalist consultants who work across multiple industries and business functions, enabling holistic, cross-cutting insights rather than siloed expertise. The firm operates from seven offices across North America, Europe, and Asia and emphasizes direct collaboration with senior executives to deliver actionable recommendations. Its differentiator is the commitment to fidelity and exclusivity—guaranteeing that only one client per industry is served long term—allowing deeper, trusted client relationships and tailored, high-impact outcomes. The goal is to provide competitive leverage to a very limited set of clients and help them achieve sustained success globally.

What believers are saying

  • The 2026 website lists seven offices, showing continued global footprint and reach.
  • Industry exclusivity protects pricing power when clients value conflict-free strategic advice.
  • Generalist staffing supports faster redeployment across industries during volatile client demand cycles.

What critics are saying
