We work with a wide variety of businesses in the F&B field both established and start-ups. Our projects have ranged from brand and strategy reviews to managing roll-outs in transit and high street environments. We have many years experience of operating a multi-site food business prior to facilitating a trade sale to Europe's largest food service group enabling us to provide a particularly informed approach in this field. We pride ourselves on delivering great looking schemes coupled with operational excellence.

 

A selection of recent projects are illustrated below:

 


 

        

Salade Retail

Salade appointed W1 to revitalize their retail proposition, brand and store environments prior to embarking on an accelerated roll-out of the fresh food concept.

Consulting on menu development, range extensions and operational systems we worked closely with the management team to increase revenue and reduce serve times during peak hours.

We examined every aspect of the store from back-of-house operational requirements through the development of bespoke display counters creating a fresh interior scheme and refined brand identity which reflects the quality of their food and drink.


Projects:  Stratton Street, Old Bailey, Fetter Lane, Paddington Station, Poland Street

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Bagel Factory

Brand appraisal, menu development, store interiors and free-standing kiosks

W1 were approached by Bagel Factory to instigate a re-appraisal of their brand and offer. Working with key members of the new management team we initially undertook a thorough brand and product review helping them to take a strategic approach to the business's development.

We introduced development chefs who instigated modifications to the menu and product range improving quality and margin before moving on to the development of new branded interiors and stand-alone kiosk units.

Projects: Barbican, Praed Street, Waterloo Station

 

     


 

 

Etsu

W1 is working intensively with Etsu on a refurbishment programme of existing sites. Looking at all aspects of the the store from operational requirements, improved displays and menu systems we have created a comforting and welcoming environment resulting in an increase in customer numbers and average spend.

Our first refurbishment at Marylebone Station has been hugely successful with store revenue increasing over 15%. 

We have also created a secondary brand and retail proposition for the company which is to be utilised at specific sites.

Projects: Marylebone Station, Berners Street

We developed new waiter stations, wine stores and sliding screens to provide flexible accommodation.

 

 

 


 

     

 

 

 

The Legion

Conversion of a deserted printed works for the team behind The Social. A heavenly jukebox, dancing on tables rock and roller of a bar. Old Street's favorite boozer on a shoestring budget.
