All in One 

BRAND & WEB DESIGN PROPOSAL

Prepared by Sarah Bostock & Martin Lewis
For Hugo

P R O J E C T O V E R V I E W

This project will create a trusted Portuguese grocery brand and e-commerce platform that brings authentic products from the Trafaria region of Portugal to customers in the UK and Portugal.

The primary objectives of this project are to:

Invite English customers to explore Portuguese food confidently

Reassure Portuguese customers that the products are genuinely Portuguese, familiar, and high quality

Feel rooted in place, heritage, and everyday Portuguese life rather than “tourist Portugal”

Brand
Identity

O B J E C T I V E

Create a warm, honest, and culturally grounded brand that feels authentic to Portuguese customers while remaining approachable for English shoppers.


A P P R O A C H

Visual identity inspired by Trafaria and it’s stunning coastal scenery and everyday culture.

Colour palette drawn from:

  • Atlantic blues

  • Sun-faded whites

  • Terracotta / ceramic tones

Typography that balances:

  • A strong, trustworthy primary typeface

  • A softer, more human secondary typeface for storytelling

Brand assets designed to scale across:

  • Website

  • Packaging labels

  • Social media

  • Printed materials (flyers, in-store cards, delivery inserts)


O U T C O M E

A brand that feels like “the Portuguese shop you trust back home” — not a novelty food store.

Dual-Audience Strategy:

  • Emphasises authenticity, sourcing, and recognisable brands


D E L I V E R A B L E S

  • Product description framework that works in both languages

  • Microcopy (buttons, navigation, checkout language)

Translation Software Recommendations: Weglot

  • Excellent integration with Shopify,

  • Automatically detects and translates content

  • Allows manual refinement which is important for food terminology

  • SEO-friendly for both English and Portuguese markets

  • Easy for the client to manage ongoing updates without technical input

Investment

To ensure clarity and flexibility, each service is priced individually.

however, because the brand identity, e-commerce website, and photography are intrinsically linked, we recommend delivering them together as a single, cohesive project rather than as isolated services.

When developed in alignment, each element strengthens the others — resulting in a clearer brand story, stronger customer trust, and improved conversion across the site.

In good faith, and in recognition that the business will gain the greatest long-term value from this integrated approach, we are offering a reduced combined investment across all three services.
