Laredo Taco Company

 
 
 

Problem: Laredo Taco Company is a Tex-Mex fast-food chain located in gas stations. The brand needs to reflect the food’s authenticity and quality, and stimulate customer engagement while in the convenience store.

Insight: People love heroes and villains and want to be part of a story.

Solution: Personify the tacos as rival Lucha Libre wrestlers where fans are involved in the storyline.

Art Director: Jeff Hopkins
