Due to the popularity and positive feedback from our last branding event, we are excited to announce that we are having another one!

Join us for an exciting and interactive event designed to help Gloucestershire’s food, drink, farming, and hospitality businesses elevate their brands and embrace the power of change.

Led by Mighty, a renowned brand and digital agency with offices in Gloucestershire and London, this hands-on workshop will challenge attendees to rethink their branding and discover new ways to stand out in a competitive market. Branding is more than just a logo- it’s about perception, storytelling, and building a strong, lasting presence. We encourage you to bring a brand - whether it's for your company, a product, or something entirely new.
