Helmbolds, Website Design

Home » Portfolio of Eric Millington » Helmbolds, Website Design

Helmbolds is a heritage meat company with roots in the Capital Region going back to 1913 — but their digital presence didn’t reflect the legacy or the quality of the product. I designed a new website that modernized the brand without losing its old-school charm, bringing clarity, accessibility, and a bit of flavor to the online experience.

The site features custom product photography, historical context, and a clean structure that highlights their signature sausages, deli products, and local partnerships. The goal was to serve both loyal customers and new visitors with an experience that feels trustworthy, timeless, and easy to navigate.

Project highlights:

  • Fully responsive WordPress site with a focus on usability
  • Visual storytelling that honors 100+ years of regional heritage
  • Custom graphics and photography to elevate the brand experience
  • Designed for product visibility, customer trust, and long-term growth

This project gave Helmbolds a digital home that respects its legacy while helping it stay relevant and approachable in today’s market.
