Tesser’s design for Ben & Jerry’s Scoop Shops returns to the brand’s roots, updating it with a “green” high-tech air. Ben & Jerry’s pioneering application of re-used materials is reflected throughout the store, from the pint lid “flavor curtain” to the video screens mounted inside a VW Bus. High-margin treats take center stage while décor elements fabricated by Vermont artisans tell the brand’s social mission story. We call it “Global Cooling!”

{orange} Tesser did an amazing job of translating our complex brand into a retail store which is uniquely Ben & Jerry’s!

TAKING THE MESSAGE GLOBAL: TOKYO & BEYOND


Through in-depth pop-culture analysis and pushing Ben & Jerry’s into a new, upscale position. Authentic materials, high quality finishes, digital communication and interactive features are woven throughout the store design. The sophisticated Japanese customer is fully engaged with Ben & Jerry’s heritage, quality product, social mission and the communal experience of eating ice cream. And with lines around the block, success is no surprise.

The Tokyo scoop shop has been one of the busiest in our system. It’s no coincidence.

SPREADING THE LOVE: AMSTERDAM, BRAZIL & SINGAPORE

 

With the success of the Tokyo store came the request for more store designs worldwide.  Tesser introduced the brand into brand new markets by building an in-store experience to capture the essence of the founder’s personalities and drive awareness of new products and super-premium quality.

 

By working with local artists and craftsmen, Tesser helped Ben & Jerry’s artfully blend it’s core brand elements with the styles of the adopted country.
