A drinks brand has to win in three places: on the shelf or marketplace, in cafés and restaurants that serve it, and on social media. Each needs its own content. Retail needs clear pack shots and listings. Cafés and restaurants need recipes and serves their teams can make. Social media needs video that shows the drink being poured and enjoyed. Food On Focus Media is a Dubai F&B agency that produces all three, and has done so for brands including Alpro and Guinness.

|---|---|---|

| Cafés, restaurants and hotels | Serves that suit their menu and are easy to make | Recipe cards, serve photography, menu inserts |

| Trade shows | What is new and why it matters | Stand visuals, a brand film, product sheets |
Content that sells drinks
- The pour. Movement, foam, ice and condensation make a drink look cold and fresh.
- The recipe. A simple serve people can copy at home or a barista can make in service.
- The occasion. Breakfast, gym, iftar, the office, the beach. Show when the drink fits.
- The season. Iced serves for the long summer, warm and spiced serves for winter and Ramadan evenings.
- The proof. Baristas, chefs and creators using the product in their own way.
Drinks are technically demanding to shoot because ice melts, foam drops and glass reflects. Our guides to cocktail and mocktail photography and coffee photography explain how we handle it.
Drinks work we have done

Why drinks brands choose Food On Focus
We work only with food and beverage brands, and have done since 2019. Our photographers and stylists know how to keep a drink looking cold and fresh on set, and the same team plans the campaign around it. In 2026 our co-founder Logeswari was named Best Creative Agency at the BeingShe x Gulf News Excellence in Media Award.
Things to plan for in the UAE
- Labelling and product registration rules apply to drinks sold in the UAE. Confirm the current requirements with the relevant authorities or your distributor before printing packaging.
- The UAE applies excise tax to certain drinks, which affects pricing and messaging. Check the Federal Tax Authority for the current rules.
- Advertising of alcohol is restricted. We follow the venue’s and brand owner’s compliance guidance for any such work.
- Health and nutrition claims must be accurate and supportable.
