Case Study – Kumbakonam Degree Coffee | Breators
Case Study

From Broken
to Branded

How we rebuilt Kumbakonam Degree Coffee's website to match the brand it truly represents - and fixed the leads they were silently losing.

The Client

250+ outlets.
Zero online presence that matched.

Kumbakonam Degree Coffee is one of South India's most recognised filter coffee franchise brands, with over 250 outlets across Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana. A strong offline brand - but their website wasn't telling that story.

The Problem

A website that looked nothing
like the brand it sold.

The site used a generic beige layout with no connection to the product's identity. But beyond the visuals, structural problems were quietly costing the business real leads every single day.

  • Franchise enquiry form was broken - prospects hit a dead end
  • No separation between franchise visitors and product buyers
  • Generic beige design with no brand personality
  • No trust signals - story, presence, or social proof was buried
  • No clear next step for either type of visitor
What We Changed & Why

Four decisions. One cohesive result.

01

Brand identity rebuilt from scratch

The old site could have belonged to any business. We rebuilt it in a deep coffee-brown palette - a visitor understands the brand before reading a word.

Colour increases brand recognition by 80%
02

Two customer journeys, clearly separated

Franchise enquirers and product buyers are completely different visitors with different goals. We created clear entry points for both so neither gets lost.

03

Fixed the enquiry form - and made it prominent

The old franchise form was broken and buried. In the redesign it works, it's visible, and it's surrounded by a direct CTA so the business stops losing leads.

04

Built trust through real social proof

Added state-wise store imagery, video testimonials from real franchise owners, and a brand story that earns credibility before asking for anything.

92% of buyers trust peer reviews over brand claims
