3 STAR BRAND CREATION

GSP’s Retail Environments team created the 3Star brand after working with the client’s market development team. The challenge was to create a new convenience store brand for Central and Eastern Europe that looks modern but hints at the past. The branding needs to be applicable to an old European cities, and free standing units of new suburbs. Different store footprints in different types of buildings, and different landscapes must leverage the brand and stand out.

Inside the store, everything had to be developed: wayfinding, fountain, food service, store branding and décor. The design packages created impact for the cash wrap, lighting, flooring, cabinets, countertops and gondola section. This store is located in downtown Minsk, Belarus.

Our Brand Story

GSP started as a printing company in1978. We found our niche supplying in-store signage for convenience stores when retailers guessed quantities they needed. This led to overage, waste and expense. To solve this, we developed software to guarantee on-time delivery of “the right size sign, to the right store, every time.”

In 2014, we started AccuStore with a dedicated team. As software helped drive our growth, we realized that new printing and fulfillment sites near customers could drive business and improve sustainability. We acquired companies that fit GSP’s technical excellence and superior customer service models.

First was Great Big Pictures in Madison, WI in 2015. They lead the field in large format printing and visual merchandising for iconic fashion retailers. Their standards for customer service include award-winning sustainability programs, and expertise to bolster retail environments services.

In 2020, GSP acquired Custom Color in Lenexa, KS. The company supplies printed graphics to leading retailers. Custom Color’s stellar quality in fabric printing also aligns with GSP’s values.
