Experience

We first gained recognition in specialty food and grocery for creating the original brand identity and package designs for the Whole Foods Market's 365 brand. We got our start in natural foods in 1992 when Whole Foods Market hired us to design packaging for their first private brand. Over the next decade we developed brand identity, logos and package design for more than a thousand WFM SKU's, along with collateral and in-store graphics as Whole Foods grew from 13 to more than 150 stores, went public and hit two billion in sales.

We have also created branding and package design for a number of natural and organic food companies including HEB supermarkets, Earth Fare, Applegate Farms, One with Nature and Golding Farm Foods. Most recently our package design for Fairway Market's private brand Organic Grass-Fed Milk won a 2018 Vertex Global Private Brand Packaging Award.
