Run Amuk has been a South Fremantle favourite for 13 years. What started as a website update became a full brand upgrade, followed by social and paid campaigns that keep people talking.

The challenge

Run Amuk came to us for a new website. The business had real character, with 13 years of loyal locals and a cult menu, but its brand wasn’t showing it. Emily saw the chance to go further and upgrade the whole identity, not just the site.

What we did

We rebuilt the brand from the plate up: a new product shoot on a signature sky blue, bold stylised type for menus, posters and specials, the Local Heroes film and a new website. Every hotdog got a name, a look and a reason to order it.

Brand film

Local Heroes celebrates the people who’ve shaped Run Amuk over 13 years. Real customers share real stories about the South Fremantle favourite they’ve eaten at, grown up with and backed from day one. Part thank-you, part tribute, it shows what the brand really stands for: its community.

Found first, and talked about.

Since the relaunch we’ve kept the momentum going with social content and paid campaigns, from One Dog No Hands to Weekday Lunch Deserves Better. Engagement has climbed sharply across social and paid, with posts that have gone viral.
