Global Catering is a great dining company in the UAE through restaurant operations, catering services, retail food selling, and food distribution. When Global Catering came to us, the organization’s goal was clear – to strengthen the management team and stake a permanent place for the company in an increasingly saturated business – the food and beverage industry. They required an integrated branding service that would help them re-design their company’s image and make it clear what their restaurants offer and what services they provide in terms of restaurants, catering services, retail, and wholesale. To this end, they needed to have a set of professional marketing items and collateral that included printed menus, fliers, and a creative and eye-catching brochure.

Overview
Global Catering tapped us to come up with an engaging manner of presenting their services in the restaurant food and catering services, retail, and wholesale segments. The concept of design that we use in our work is a combination of inspiration and materialistic rationales. In every project that we do, including a restaurant brochure, our goal is to produce aesthetically appealing products that meet or exceed the intended purpose. Even for Global Catering we carefully crafted a booklet that not only introduced their brand positioning but also their ability to plan and execution of catering services. Particular attention was given to the design work and format of the web page and all the typography, color selection, and imagery used were taken care of and looked distinguished and presentational.
Our Challenges
Challenges
Limited Design Resources
Global Catering gave Rise despite having a large market share this was limited in having to provide design solutions. This constraint combined with our limited resources at the time resulted in us having limited ability to produce effective quality and well-designed marketing material to effectively convey their brand message and unique selling proposition. One of the challenges we faced was generally always wanting to come up with designs that were on-brand, visually appealing, and favored by the targeted population.
Competitive Market Differentiation
The UAE food and beverage industry was already intensely competitive, which proved to be problematic for Global Catering. Despite the fact that the team was working with traditional print materials it was always challenging to effectively communicate their value proposition and attract the potential clients’ attention.
Maintaining Brand Consistency
A primary issue that Global Catering business encounters is the issue of standardization where the business has a broad range of services due to its diverse operational sectors. Otherwise, there would be no comprehensive design system, and the teams would have weaker guidelines and a likely higher potential for inconsistency that weakens the perception of the brand.
Creating a Memorable Brand Experience
Setting a brand in the market is important more so in today’s market to ensure the customer gets a unique experience. The traditional printed media can be generally too limited in creating a fully-fledged sensory sensation that could surprise the customers.
