CASE STUDY
ATLANTIC
How Mojave’s re-branding of Atlantic Equipment Specialists effectively positioned the food service equipment company as a leader in designing, building, and installing upscale dining environments in restaurants, corporate dining facilities and university student dining halls.
Atlantic Equipment Specialists approached Mojave to find a solution to their marketing and brand identity difficulties.
The Problem
Since 1985, Atlantic Equipment Specialists has supplied food services equipment such as stoves, grills and refrigeration equipment to restaurants and corporate dining facilities. In addition, they also designed, fabricated, and installed seating and meal delivery stations for schools, universities, and retail restaurants. However, due to an ambiguous company name and a lack of cohesive branding across their marketing platforms, their efforts to increase their presence in the market were unsuccessful.
Evaluation
Mojave reviewed and researched the client’s existing marketing plans, promotional materials, website, and corporate branding policies and concluded:

BEFORE
- The name “Atlantic Equipment Specialists” was not accurately indicative of the products and/or services the company provided.
- The existing logo, website, and marketing materials were dated and lacked any cohesive style or messaging.
- The client had minimal plans for targeted marketing campaigns and any subsequent reactions thereof.


AFTER
