We've had an outstanding experience with Upstart Food Brands. As a small emerging brand, we had an idea of where to start and interviewed several companies. Upon our first meeting with Josh we knew we found the right place. He intently listened to our story, quickly came to understand us and grasped the vision we had for our company. Him and his team then went to work to bring it all to life. Logo, brand story, website, they delivered our identity and encompassed everything we were looking for. "Project Name: Startup Everything

The team at Upstart Food Brands has been with us since before the launch of our specialty food business. They listened and responded to our needs, concerns and ideas. They gave us honest feedback and in then created a brand that is perfectly aligned with our vision for the business. We couldn't be more pleased with the look and feel of the labels, website and marketing materials, and our customers have responded with glowing compliments. We're looking forward to a long relationship with Upstart! "Project Name: Brand Development

After a laborious search for a branding and design agency that fit our needs and budget, we signed with Upstart Food Brands over a number of elite branding agencies on the east coast. They simply packed too much value into their proposal to pass them up. Since then, we have been consistently impressed by their work product and professionalism, and have recommended them to numerous other brands. "Project Name: Branding and Design
