The brand highlights both the integrity of the makers, as well as their eccentric personalities. The voice speaks to the new national audience of wholesale purchasers as well as the end-consumer, whose tastes are becoming more nuanced. From a positioning perspective, our goal was to create an identity unique to the bread game.
“BS does their homework and gets it done. They got inside my head, they know where we came from and where we’re going. The brand they created speaks to who we are as a team, what we create together, and the people who choose to buy our bread. The new brand has helped us push into the national market and set ourselves apart from the competition. That was the goal from the beginning, and they killed it.”
