Five Guys is a unique brand. Essentially they’re Mom and  Pop (and four sons) burger joint that just happens ot have grown into a global phenomenon valued at over $1bn. 

They do not spend any money on advertising (Founder Jerry Murrell is famously quoted as saying,“We don’t spend money on guys in chicken suits’).  

We followed Jerry’s lead when it came to creating work to talk to new franchisees. Everything hand-made (just like their burgers) and no frills (just like their stores) in short animated films and example A-board posters that delivered the Five Guys origin story and way of doing things in the brand’s distinctive no-nonsense way.
