Case Study: Three Brothers Bakery

Case Study: Three Brothers Bakery

A Houston institution, Three Brothers Bakery has been serving up European-style breads and pastries since 1949.

OVERVIEW

Three Brothers Bakery is a fifth-generation business with three locations in Houston and an online store that ships nationally. A Houston staple since 1949, the bakery is best known for its award-winning pecan pie, challah, rye bread, gingerbread men, and cupcakes.


The Challenge

The company desired a fresh idea that could drive immediate in-store sales during a slow sales month while staying true to its voice. Integrate sought to capitalize on the hype around the 2016 presidential election, but the real test was cutting through the noise of the political news cycle.
