The Overview
A six-venue hospitality collective—including a brewery, roadhouse, fusion eatery, cantina, bakery, and farm—suffered from fragmented branding and heavy agency reliance.
The Objective: Step in as the embedded Brand Manager and Creative Director to build an in-house studio from scratch and unify six distinct narratives.
The Work
Spokoloc Studio acted as the in-house Brand Manager, building a scalable creative engine from the ground up:
Ecosystem Design: Developed six bespoke brand systems, creating the foundational identities for Stone Ridge Farm and Bazar Bakery to market the portfolio's farm-to-table supply chain.
Full-Scale Execution: Delivered 100% of customer-facing assets, including menus, packaging, signage, custom illustrations, photography, and video direction.
Team Scaling: Recruited and trained an intern into a full-time Junior Designer/Copywriter, leaving the client with a permanent, self-sufficient internal team.
The Result
Agency Independence: Total migration away from external agencies, securing permanent cost savings.
Commercial Growth: Increased foot traffic and boosted profitability across all six properties.
Structural Transformation: Turned a fragmented portfolio into a self-sustaining, high-output creative powerhouse.
