End-to-end hospitality
Barmanka Café
From a blank idea to an operating café, built end to end.
MeetYourReach took Barmanka from a blank idea to an operating 5,000 sq. ft. specialty coffee café: finding the land, developing the space, building the brand, launching, marketing and supporting its operations.
- Location
- Koregaon Park, Pune
- Business
- Specialty coffee café & kitchen
- Duration
- 1 year
- Property size
- 5,000 sq. ft.
- Starting point
- Just an idea
The challenge
- No existing café, only an initial idea.
- The right land and location had to be identified and finalised.
- A complete café had to be planned and built from the ground up.
- A new brand was needed: name, identity and visual presence.
- The café had to launch, then keep acquiring customers after opening.
- Operations had to be set up to run a working café, not just open one.
The objective
Build Barmanka as a complete hospitality brand rather than another café space, connecting the physical, creative, commercial and marketing work into one execution process from the earliest stage.
What we did.
-
Land and location discovery
We evaluated the land as part of the wider business plan before finalising the Koregaon Park location, the physical foundation for the concept.
-
Planning and execution
Budgeting, timelines, coordination, vendor management and execution across every stage, over a one-year journey.
-
Architecture and construction
Construction, infrastructure, electrical and plumbing, kitchen setup, outdoor development, landscaping and signage, managed as one project.
-
Interiors and customer experience
Furniture, lighting, décor and spatial design were developed by our team to support the café's positioning from the moment guests walk in.
-
Brand creation
We named Barmanka Café, designed the logo and built the identity: colours, typography, visual language and customer-facing brand elements.
-
Physical branding
Signage, menus, packaging, uniforms and supporting material made the brand part of the experience, not a logo on an unrelated space.
-
Launch, marketing and acquisition
A launch connected the finished space with its digital presence, followed by ongoing social media, content, promotions and brand communication.
-
Operations
Operational planning, staff setup, processes and SOPs, menu planning, vendor coordination and procurement for a functioning café.
The results.
