About Cork + Knife
Cork + Knife was founded in 2017 over a dram and a dream, born from a relationship that began as a client-agency partnership and evolved into a lasting friendship. This origin story is central to the agency’s identity. Based in New York, United States, the firm was established by a Latina founder who saw an opportunity to build a communications company rooted in genuine human connection, not just transactional business. From the start, the goal was to serve the food and beverage space with an approach that valued authenticity, relationships, and meticulous attention to detail. Over the years, Cork + Knife has grown into a nimble, creative team that remains true to its founding ethos: balancing hustle with humanity.
