Replicable formats
Open your own.
Three formats that exist, work and have the numbers. Each one can be born again somewhere else: under its own name or a new one. You bring the space. We bring everything else.
What it means
A format is not an idea. It's a system already running.
Concept, offer, space, management, story: five pieces that already work together on our side. Replicating a format means bringing the whole system into a new venue. Not copying a menu.
Format 01 · Beach club · Ostia · since 2003
Capanno Beach Club
The beach club that lasts.

- Beach club concept and identity: beach, seafood cooking, a day that runs into the evening
- Food & beverage offer and organisation of the season

Brand or concept
Under the name it has. Or a new one.
Every format reaches a new venue in one of two ways. We decide together, case by case, after the reading.
Licensed brand
The venue opens under the format's name, identity and reputation. You take what has already been built: recognition, the menu, the community that follows it.
Replicated concept
The venue is born with a new name, but the same system inside: concept, offer, space, management, story. The format is the engine. The brand is yours.
Neither is the right road by default. It depends on the place, the territory and who's opening it.
Do you have a venue waiting for its format?
