Freshly baked artisan loaves cooling on racks at Portofino Bakery

The challenge

After two decades of artisan bread-making on Vancouver Island, Portofino Bakery earned B Corporation Certification, a globally recognized standard for social and environmental performance. They wanted to announce the milestone in a way that showed the people and practices behind it, not just the logo.

What we made

A 1:36 commercial filmed inside Portofino's production facility, following the bakers, the ovens and the bread from dough to finished loaf. The film ties the certification to three commitments: reducing their carbon footprint, supporting local communities and prioritizing their team's wellbeing.

The result

The film announced Portofino's B Corp Certification on its website and Instagram.
