Raising the Bar (Updated)

AUCKLAND, Today: Downtown creative indie Crave Global is on the move – from Ponsonby to one of beautiful classic buildings in Symonds St – the old Post Office at No 224 (more recently, the home of Galbraith’s Ale House, and the Pavement Bar).

Managing partners Hadleigh Averill and Daniel Hopkirk have also given the agency branding a refresh.

The pair say the old building has an inbuilt bar – “perfect for taste testing for our many clients in the drinks category”, as well as serving as a creative hub.

“Our bar will be a central destination to learn from the best and have some fun while doing it.”

Hadleigh Averill said: “As a creative agency, sometimes being in an office is the worst place to be for best results. We want people to have a place to let their hair down.

“Our bar will be a central destination to try new things, create a bit of industry culture, learn from the best and have some fun while doing it.”
