Favorite Metro Food and Spirits Hot Spot Gets LED Sign Upgrade

Posted by Electro-Matic on Dec 10, 2018 5:01:51 PM
 
Vivio’s Food & Spirits is a sports bar in Warren, MI that features a full bar with world famous Bloody Marys, 26 beers on tap including rotating craft brews, and a menu loaded with home-cooked comfort foods and daily specials.

They were looking to revamp their image, and a better way to showcase their new menu, advertise daily specials, and promote upcoming events/live music that they host on the weekends. At the time, their only way of doing so was to climb a ladder and individually insert each letter to the back lit, changeable sign that was out front.
 
Electro-Matic's full color, 11mm LED Display not only allowed them to better advertise their business and look more professional, but also gave them the ability to update their messaging, and add images/logos to their sign without all of the manual labor
 
 
 
"We couldn’t believe the immediate impact the display had on our business. We had customers coming into the bar and telling us, they didn’t even know we were here, even though they may have passed us everyday! It is exactly what we were hoping for and needed out of this new sign."
 
- Steve Alanis, Owner & Beau Johnson, General Manager
