If you’re looking for a traditional hotel consultant, that’s not us

 

Founded in 2002, Sweet&Chilli is a full-service hospitality agency operating in Australia, UK & USA. We are a global collective of future thinking experts in food and beverage culture and award winning owner/operators, we offer an ATYPICAL approach to concept development and execution.

Our unmatched knowledge of the F&B industry is uniquely combined with a deep understanding of Australian consumer behaviour providing the capability to create cut through experiences for guests, whilst simultaneously driving revenue and growth for our clients through implementation of efficient and measured operational systems.

Our aim is very simple; conceive innovative and pragmatic solutions to deliver thoughtful and emotionally connected experiences.

 
 

Every project begins with a story to tell…


To nurture authenticity, we pride ourselves in having no preconceived ideas and no pre-packaged solutions. With a blank canvas mindset, we create meaningful connections with our clients so that we truly understand your ‘why’ and can clearly articulate the story you want to tell.

From there we explore the cause and effect of each moment of the consumer journey and develop guiding principles which bring your vision to life with purpose and integrity. 

Our overall approach is built upon a framework of genuine hospitality upon which we construct end to end guest experiences from a human-centred perspective.

We encompass a multitude of disciplines and expertise…

 

As each project is unique, so are the skills required to deliver it successfully. For every concept we hand select a bespoke team of creatives, project managers and specialists from both within our agency and our broader network of partners to ensure we have the right ingredients for a seamless implementation from start to finish. Then in true ATYPICAL fashion we provide continuity of service well beyond the completion of the project to ensure our clients long term success.
