The Matchlight Suite

Three flagship products.
One regional revolution.

Most agencies sell you services. We built products — three of them, working together — so the businesses we love don't have to choose between national-quality work and a budget that actually makes sense.

Storefront Cleanup

Cover-to-cover brand transformation.

Logo. Website. Social media. Print materials. Signage. Everything — rebuilt into one cohesive brand that looks like you mean business. This is the full overhaul.

Storefront Cleanup Case Study

From regional supplier to regional standard.

Gas Station Supply has fueled the Mid-Atlantic for 70+ years. Founded by Cole Candler as the next chapter of Candler Oil Co. We rebuilt their entire presence to match.

Cover-to-cover · Blaze Tier
Act 1 · Where they started

80 followers. A website from 2008. A truck that didn't look like the company it served.

Cole was running a 70-year-old institution on a brand that had stopped keeping up. The fastest-growing petroleum equipment supplier in the Southeast — with nine following on Twitter, a website that buried the value prop under a Tank Boss video, and a fleet that looked like it belonged to anyone.

The fleet

Act 2 · Where we started

A new mark, built to fly.

Cole's vision was bigger than his brand could carry. So we rebuilt it from the badge up — a wing-and-shield mark in royal blue and red that earns the respect his work already commands.

Act 3 · The transformation

Then the brand started moving. Literally.

Every truck in the fleet got rewrapped — not just stickers, a full identity system that turns every job site into an advertisement. Unmissable on any highway between Lynchburg and Charlotte.

After

Act 4 · The space

We took the brand off the trucks and into the building.

Two hand-painted wall murals — the history of American gas stations, and a journey through nearly a century of pump design — turned the Lynchburg headquarters into a place worth walking through.

Passion Is Our Fuel mural

Act 5 · The digital moment

A new desktop site. A SCRLsite for the phone. Both shine.

We rebuilt their web presence cover-to-cover. The desktop site finally tells the story their headquarters does — clean, confident, on-brand. The mobile experience is a SCRLsite: a single page that loads instantly and converts harder than any old multi-page menu ever did. The first thing customers see now matches the last thing they remember.

Act 6 · The result

"The Mid-Atlantic's premier petroleum equipment supplier" — not just on paper anymore.

Cole took his upgraded brand and built it a facility to match: 5 Parkwood Avenue, Lynchburg. The new headquarters of Gas Station Supply, A 5 Parkwood, Inc. Company. Visible from a quarter-mile away.

DocPay full brand identity system
Case Study · 01

DocPay — Medical Payment Platform

From hospital corridor clipart to a system doctors trust.

A medical fintech can't look like a pharmacy stock photo. We rebuilt DocPay's identity around the shield — a clean, confident mark that holds up everywhere a payment plan needs to: tablets, business cards, sales sheets, the works.

Case Study · 02

Foster Electric — Electrical Contractor

The same Foster. Sharper than the breaker box they just upgraded.

Foster Electric had the trust, the trucks, and the work. What they didn't have was a brand that walked in the door with the crew. We built one — logo system, business cards, branded apparel, keyrings — so every job site looks like the company that ran it.

Leal's Refreshments — Vending & Snacks

From snack-aisle clutter to refreshment the brand deserved.

Leal's was already feeding offices across the region. The old logo wasn't keeping up. We rebuilt the mark to feel as fresh and friendly as their service — then rolled it onto packaging, vouchers, coffee cups, and the vending machines themselves. A whole presence, top to bottom.

Zinkernagel Brewing — Heritage Craft Beer

Generations of family heritage, finally on every bottle in the line.

Zinkernagel had one beautiful, busy label — and no system to grow it. We pulled the heraldic spirit out of a single dunkelweizen and turned it into a full visual language: shield monogram, six-pack carrier, coasters, caps, and clean labels for the whole product line. The history stays. The future fits in your hand.

Your customers are already scrolling.
Keep the scroll going.

Mobile traffic is now 62% of all web traffic and growing. Most local businesses still treat mobile as an afterthought. SCRLsites don't. They're single-page, scroll-optimized websites built for how people actually use phones today — the same scroll habit they've already built on social, pointed at your business.

Don't take our word for it.

"

Matchlight is a dream to work with! I have been through the branding process three other times and this has been the best. They made it so easy and everyone was kind and talented. I felt heard. The final result was a stunning logo that makes me proud.

"

When it comes to my business, I expect absolute professionalism, and I don't settle for less than the best. What these guys have done for us constantly has me blown away.

Robert Smith
Owner, SAPPS
"

These are the only people that really make me feel like I have a grasp on what they're talking about. Of the dozens of marketing companies I have worked with, Matchlight is the only one where I feel genuinely cared for — not just sold to.

Our Vision

Every business deserves to look as good as it actually is.

We've spent over a decade proving that you don't have to be a Fortune 500 company to have extraordinary design. The best brands in any room don't always have the biggest budgets — they have the right team behind them. That's what Matchlight is.
