My Role
Local entrepreneurs came to me looking for help navigating how to begin a brand. After consultations and planning a GTM strategy of how to best position, I started executing the design. They had requested custom illustrations, a logo, and package design.

positioning
Sauc.d makes curated vegan, kosher, gluten-free, and all-organic sauces for local restaurants and offers online buying in bulk as well. They are well-entwined with the Encinitas restaurant industry and incorporate their sauces into chef's specials.
Branded Mood Board
Inspired by surfer grunge, fine lines, and Greco-Roman statues I wanted the branding to feel elegant yet edgy. The colors were muted versions of the sauce mixed with earth tones to help reinforce the "garden to table" organic approach.

Brand Positioning
Sauc.d is a company founded by a local chef whose specialty is creating a variety of vegan, kosher, gluten-free, and organic sauces that are used by high-end restaurants and sold at local farmer's markets. Leucadia prides itself in their entrepreneurs and organically sourced brands so incorporating that into the brand was essential.
