Evolving through earthquakes, rubble and covid…

Under the Red Verandah

And still serving the ‘best breakfast’ in Christchurch

Under the Red Verandah

Managing an evolving brand through earthquakes and beyond

Marty has been alongside UTRV, since before the earthquakes managing and and helping their marketing evolve as they rose from the rubble!

Now 14 years and counting, it is exciting to still be a part of this amazing establishment that has seen several new owners over time, but the same ethos!

Under the Red Verandah has been like an oasis for many on the Eastside, where you can always get a park, great food with many organic options, and exceptional down to earth service from passionate staff!

From origins, to the current renovated cottage

Check out the various stages of UTRV design and brand based on their location and status before and after earthquakes

With Marty’s careful refinement of elements, colours and balance, a dynamic transformation slowly took place!

Check out the current look, refined to identify with new building…

After all the building is the focus of all things tasty and the meeting place for many!

The graphics showcase the simple building form, with a playful font to carry some of their character

with tee shirts, website and cards, vouchers and labels…

UTRV as they are known must go through the most Loyalty cards of any cafe, as well as labels to their epic sauces you can buy off the shelf

  • I have been fortunate to have had Marty supporting my business for 20 years. He “gets us”, and helps others to “get us too”.

    Kate Nattrass | Owner and Director of Tonix Healh

  • From the start we found Marty very easy and fun to engage, a good listener, flexible and patient but genuine, and current with his ideas. We were impressed with the options he presented , turn-around times and the final outcomes and costs for our brand refresh
