Drakes Supermarkets is proudly family-owned and operated, with a commitment to providing exceptional customer service and supporting local producers. From a single store in 1974, Drakes has grown to become Australia’s largest independent grocery retailer, with over 60 stores across South Australia and Queensland and a team of more than 6,000.

 

To celebrate their journey, Drakes entrusted us with the mission of capturing their history, legacy, and vision for the future in a beautifully crafted 112-page book.

Through carefully curated stories and archival imagery, this book reflects their remarkable growth and deep connection to the communities they serve.

Drakes story is full of passion and innovation, their book design was worked in collaboration with one of our freelance designers and Drakes was a client that made our work effortless.
