New York City Food Trucks go Inside your Companies place of work.
April 30, 2012 by Leave a Comment
Food Trucks head inside to your place of work. NYC food trucks have been traveling up the freight elevator of the 19-story Starrett-Lehigh Building at 601 West 26th Street in West Chelsea, to offer dining options five days a week to some 6,000 office workers and visitors.
“This is the first indoor vertical food-truck court in the city, and as far as I know, the country,”
said David Weber, president of the New York City Food Truck Association, which was asked by
the building’s owner, RXR Realty, to curate the daily “truck collection” because of a paucity of
lunchtime choices in the neighborhood, west of the High Line between 11th and 12th Avenues.

DAVIDsTEA
Their Success… A new direction to branding tea time. If you are looking for an “Organic Gold Rush” with your “Birthday Cake” topped off by a “Jolly Jellybean”, then you might consider this place to be “Paradise found”. These are the names of flavors you’ll find created by pairing loose-leaf teas with ingredients from around the world at this tea shop. David Segal, founder of DavidsTea, saw the need for a non-serious approach to drinking tea that’s now filling a void overlooked by traditional tea shops. The first location, which opened in Montreal, Canada, was the starting point for the tea empire’s success. The brand’s consistent messaging about making tea fun is careful crafted at every touch point– from the staffing and overall guest experience to brand concept and packaging. Tea time is usually relaxing to most but DavidsTea has pushed tea into a new gamut with a trendy, clean yet clever appeal. Tea time is now fun time.
What We Learned… Sometimes the key to a successful brand is what inspires us in a non-traditional way. David Segal based his brand off an idea that “tea should be more fun”.
Take Aways… What’s your inspiration? How can you use what inspires you in your
branded product?
