La Vie IFE 24

Posted by Richard  |  10/04/2024

We have been working with plant-based meat specialists La Vie for many years. We have supported them across various UK shows. This year we focused on their presence at IFE 2024 at London’s Excel.

The challenge

Our partnership with La Vie began in 2022 for their stand at Casual Dining. The brief was to create a natural space that reflected their commitment to sustainability. The design also had to encompass their colourful and bold branding. The signature La Vie pink was a vital element.

A fully functional cooking station was a necessity for this sampling exhibition stand. It had to communicate their new brand identity to show visitors clearly. Reusability was a priority. The team planned to exhibit at multiple shows every year and required a durable solution.

Our work

We delivered a bold sampling exhibition stand that functions as a complete brand world. A massive La Vie lightbox sits on top of a central cooking station. This area features a pink frame branded as the “Vegan Bacon Bar” with a matching corrugated roof. We added fairy lights to create a pop-up bar vibe and enhance the ambiance.

The stand uses 2.5-metre walls with wooden panels to display key messaging and posters. We included a standing bar seating area where visitors can enjoy food samples comfortably. Plenty of live plants add a natural touch. We installed a pastel blue floor covering that is easy to clean throughout the day.

To capture attention from a distance, we added an illuminated ceiling box. This beams the La Vie logo across the entire exhibition hall. An A-board at the front of the space invites visitors to try the product immediately.

Casual Dining 2022

This was where the partnership began. The show is now known as The National Restaurant, Pub & Bar Show.

Casual Dining 2023

The stand was reused the following year. We provided refurbishments and new graphics to keep the look sharp and aligned with their latest campaigns.

Plant Based World 2024

We added a custom voting bin for this event. Visitors could vote on whether they liked the product. We blocked off the “no” section for a humorous brand effect.

FDO 2024

We adapted the assets for a smaller shell scheme. This demonstrated the true versatility of the modular components.

The result

The final result is a brand-orientated and sustainable sampling exhibition stand. It catches the eye and performs exceptionally well in busy environments. The consistent reuse of these assets shows a fantastic return on investment for the La Vie team. The stand continues to be a highlight of their events calendar. We look forward to working with La Vie on many more shows in the future.
