Anthropologie Black Friday Event - Tampa

Black Friday at Anthropologie, just outside Tampa. We set up our mobile coffee bar inside the front entrance, serving complimentary coffee to shoppers throughout the day.

The Setup

Anthropologie requested custom branding for the event—cups featuring their aesthetic and cart design that aligned with their store environment. We positioned the coffee bar at the entrance, creating an immediate welcome point for customers as they arrived.

From opening through the afternoon rush, we served lattes, cappuccinos, and specialty beverages to shoppers navigating one of the busiest retail days of the year.

Retail Coffee Catering

Black Friday presents unique challenges for retail spaces. High traffic, long lines, extended hours. Coffee service can shift the atmosphere—turning a transactional shopping experience into something more hospitable.

For Anthropologie, the coffee wasn't about driving sales. It was about creating a moment of comfort in an otherwise hectic day. Shoppers could grab a latte while browsing, take a cappuccino while waiting in line, or simply pause for a few minutes before continuing through the store.

Brand Activation for Retail

The custom design work served a dual purpose. For Anthropologie, it reinforced their brand presence during a high-visibility event. For shoppers, it created a memorable detail—something unexpected on a day typically defined by crowds and urgency.
