Our Mission

Our mission is simple: we craft stunning brands that make a lasting impact and drive sales.

For over 5 years, we have dedicated ourselves to designing alcohol brands because it’s our true passion. We enjoy creating unique brands and collaborating with genuine people.

Our Belief

At Backbar we firmly believe all brands should be rooted in truth or good stories—stories that genuinely inspire and captivate consumers and we follow a “fewer, bigger, better” ethos in branding, ensuring we develop brands that absolutely stand out on the shelf.

“The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.”

Hans Hofmann
