How a Brewing Company in Hamilton Used Footpath Signs to Drive Cellar Door Visits

How a Brewing Company in Hamilton Used Footpath Signs to Drive Cellar Door Visits

Earlier this month, we received an order from Aka Aka Brewing, a local manufacturer and brewery based in Hamilton. They initially purchased one footpath sign to promote their wine tasting service at their cellar door. After just a few weeks of seeing the sign's impact, they returned to place another order—this time for three more footpath signs to be placed 4km and 1km away from their venue. Their goal? To drive foot traffic and increase awareness in the local area.

The team at Aka Aka Brewing made use of our free Canva footpath sign template, which made the process smooth and cost-effective. By using our 5-Minute Quick Canva Tutorial for Footpath Sign Design, they were able to create a design that matched their brand. We only needed to make a minor adjustment before sending it to print.

You can view and use the same Canva template by visiting our Canva design tutorial page.
