G&J Pepsi:
Cincinnati Office

Challenge

G&J Pepsi recognized that its flagship location had gone over a decade without renovation and no longer reflected its strong brand image. The outdated design failed to meet the needs of a modern workforce, creating challenges in attracting and retaining top talent while bridging generational gaps among employees. G&J Pepsi sought a cost-conscious, timely solution that could revitalize the space while staying true to its brand identity.

Vision

The project aimed to create a refreshed, modern workplace that represented G&J Pepsi’s values and culture while adapting to current workstyles. The goal was to design a functional yet visually compelling space that would enhance employee experience, support collaboration, and embody the company’s brand for both staff and visiting partners.

Collaboration

LOTH was selected after a competitive bidding process, standing out for its ability to offer budget-friendly solutions with on-time delivery while capturing the brand aesthetic. The partnership was strengthened through a showroom visit in Cincinnati, where G&J experienced LOTH’s capabilities firsthand. The design team developed a strategic plan that included height-adjustable desks for private offices, dedicated huddle rooms for collaboration, an upgraded training room, a statement boardroom featuring a custom live-edge table, and a welcoming breakroom to support employee well-being.

Result

The completed renovation transformed G&J Pepsi’s headquarters into a modern, functional, and brand-forward workplace that supports today’s dynamic work environment. Employees now benefit from flexible, collaborative spaces and improved amenities, while visitors experience a setting that truly reflects the G&J Pepsi identity. The refreshed design helps foster connection and position the company as an attractive place to work for years to come.
