Virgin Islands Coffee Roasters
Virgin Islands Coffee Roasters came to Buttermilk Creative ready to evolve its brand presence from a simple kraft bag-and-label setup into a more elevated and cohesive retail experience. We redesigned the logo, developed a flexible packaging system featuring fully printed coffee bags with custom island-inspired illustrations, and extended the refreshed identity into branded merchandise and large-scale café wall art. Inspired by the vibrant culture and natural beauty of the Virgin Islands, the new visual system feels both premium and deeply rooted in place while supporting the brand’s growing lineup of rotating blends with greater consistency, recognition, and professionalism across every customer touchpoint.

At the core of the redesign was the need for a packaging solution that balanced strong shelf presence with operational flexibility. We created a custom illustrated bag design that could remain consistent across the product line while allowing new blends to launch quickly and efficiently through interchangeable flavor tag stickers. This modular approach gave the brand the freedom to experiment with seasonal and small-batch coffees without the expense and complexity of producing entirely new packaging for every SKU. The result is a cohesive family of products that feels artisanal yet elevated, with a packaging system built to grow alongside the business.
Beyond packaging, the project expanded into a broader brand experience across the Virgin Islands Coffee Roasters café environment. We developed branded merchandise, in-store signage, and supporting visual elements that reinforced the refreshed identity throughout the physical space. From the café walls to retail displays and branded goods, every detail was designed to create a more immersive and memorable customer experience—one that captures the warmth, creativity, and island heritage at the heart of the brand while positioning Virgin Islands Coffee Roasters for continued growth.
