Brand direction & visual identity
Positioned Greenwood around its core character — warm, practical, and more considered than the average corner shop — with a visual tone that matches the neighbourhood.
Concept Project — Hospitality & Retail
Greenwood Food & Wine
A full brand and website build for a neighbourhood food, coffee, and wine store in Dalston — from a great local shop to a clear, discoverable digital presence that reflects what makes it more than a corner shop.
Greenwood Food & Wine identity
What they needed
Greenwood Food & Wine is a neighbourhood store on Greenwood Road in Dalston, offering coffee to go, fresh pastries, groceries, wine, and everyday essentials. They had a strong local following and a clear character — practical, warm, and a step above the typical corner shop — but no website to reflect it. Their online presence was limited to a Google Maps listing and word of mouth. They needed a site that captured who they actually are: not just another local shop, but a place the neighbourhood genuinely relies on.
A neighbourhood brand with digital presence
Full website design & development
A clean, fast-loading single-page site covering coffee, groceries, produce, wine, and essentials — with opening hours, directions, and a neighbourhood-first voice throughout.
Copywriting
All website copy written to reflect their tone: direct, warm, and unpretentious. The kind of language that feels like it belongs in Dalston.
Google Reviews integration
Local reviews surfaced directly on the site — building trust with first-time visitors and reinforcing the shop's community reputation.
Local SEO foundation
Structured for local searches like "coffee Dalston", "groceries Greenwood Road", and "wine near Dalston" — making the store easier to find for residents and commuters.
Product & category showcase
Individual sections covering coffee, produce, essentials, and wine — each with its own tone, giving visitors a clear picture of what to expect before they walk in.

A site that communicates the warmth and quality that keeps locals coming back

"
A local shop that feels more thoughtful than most. Great for fresh veg, last-minute essentials, and a really good coffee on the way in.
