HAPPY BY CHOCOLATE
How IVY Brought a Local Vegan Confectionery’s Sweet Vision to Life Online
The Challenge
Happy by Chocolate was beloved locally but lacked the digital presence to expand beyond their brick-and-mortar shop. They needed a brand identity and digital infrastructure that captured their warmth, values, and artisanal expertise while enabling them to reach a broader audience. Beyond a website, the team wanted an online store, Amazon presence, and a strategy to grow their business sustainably in an increasingly competitive market.
