When we started Kitchen Couture we envisioned our sales would be primarily to individuals working in the hospitality industry and a small part to the corporate sector wanting us to design for them. Well, as with most assumptions, guess what! The corporate sector has become a big part of our business. This month we have created a new look for for the iconic "Pie Boy" logo for Gillies Pies. He now features proudly on a polo shirt and aprons. Rob Lagoun, the chief at Gillies, plans to use the polos and aprons as promotional give aways to his customers and for his sales reps to wear around the traps. It's a great logo with a vintage look which may have become a distant memory had we not encouraged Rob to get it into print. Very cool! Soon to become a collectable item. Go Pie Boy, Go!
Hey KC,
ReplyDeleteI know the Gillies logo and yeah here in Central Victoria I've seen really old faded signs for Gillies Pies on the walls of milk bars and general stores. The 1950's style of the logo is old enough to be cool again. Can I buy a shirt from Gillies or will I have to snaffle one from my local store?
yeah, i know the logo too but i know the pies better. best pie in the country. that cheeky little boy is a cutie. we sell gillies pies at our footie club kiosk so i hope i can get one.
