Food Marketplace · Brand & Product

Every kitchen,
a story worth selling.

Tubkha turns home cooks into local sellers. We built the brand and the product concept for a marketplace where a neighbour's recipe becomes tonight's dinner, and a small income.

The Brief

The best food in any city is already being cooked. It just has no way to reach you.

Tubkha started with a simple observation: every neighbourhood is full of people who cook better than most restaurants, and none of them have a storefront. The opportunity was a marketplace that gives home cooks a way to sell, and gives everyone else a better dinner.

That kind of product lives and dies on trust and appetite. The brand had to feel like a warm kitchen, not a cold delivery app, and the product had to make ordering from a stranger feel as safe as eating at family's.

A chef's hat drawn in one warm line. A palette the colour of fresh bread. A product that puts the cook, not the corporation, on the label.
How We Worked

From a neighbourhood idea to a brand and a buyable product.

01
Position
We anchored Tubkha on community over convenience: real cooks, real kitchens, real stories. Warmth is the moat a faceless delivery app cannot copy.
02
Brand
A single-line chef's-hat mark, a friendly lowercase wordmark, and a palette of fresh bread, honey, and roasted brown.
03
Product
A mobile concept built around the cook: browse by kitchen, read the story, order in a tap, with trust signals at every step.
04
Launch Kit
Social templates, cook-onboarding visuals, and packaging cues so the experience stays warm from feed to front door.
The Product

Order from a kitchen, not a brand.

The cook is the headline

Every listing leads with who made it and how soon it is ready, not a stock photo of a logo. Ratings, distance, and batch counts turn a stranger's kitchen into a confident order.

  • Browse by kitchen and cuisine, filtered to what is cooking near you
  • Trust signals built into every row: rating, time, and portions left
  • A warm visual language that makes a home cook feel like a brand
