Bloom & Brew — from weekend pop-up to 12 boba stores
The challenge
Bloom & Brew needed branded cups they could actually afford to test. They had three lid sizes, a logo that was still evolving, and a launch date for their first permanent store just five weeks away. Traditional suppliers forced them to commit to one design, in bulk, sight unseen — exactly the risk a young brand can’t take.
Our solution
Using our 3D customizer, the team uploaded their logo and saw it wrap onto a real cold cup in seconds — trying three colourways and two placements live, with no sample fees and no back-and-forth proofs. Once they locked the look, our low-MOQ run let them order just 1,000 cups per size to start. They approved the design on a Tuesday and had production cups in hand within the week.
The result
Bloom & Brew opened on schedule with a cup that looked like a national brand, not a pop-up. As they grew to 12 stores in eight months, they reordered in larger volumes at the same locked-in design — keeping every location perfectly on-brand. Reprints now take days, not weeks.
“We went from a logo file to branded cups on the counter in under a week. Seeing it in 3D before paying for anything is what sold our whole team.” — Mara L., Co-founder, Bloom & Brew
