LEVELING UP BRANDING

CARGOCADE is a retro-inspired arcade bar in the heart of Wilmington’s Cargo District, filled with neon lights, classic games, and cold drinks. MG ART came on board in early 2024 to help bring the full vision to life ahead of their fall opening.

This was the first big opportunity for MG ART to help shape a business from the ground up—from logo design to murals and everything in between. MG ART created the full brand identity, four different murals, custom menus, event flyers, and artwork for shirts, stickers, and merch. The creative direction leaned into nostalgia while keeping things bold, fun, and totally unique to the space.

Being part of this launch helped establish MG ART’s credibility in Wilmington’s creative scene, and it’s still one of the most recognizable projects in the district. CARGOCADE is now open and going strong, packed with regulars and newcomers every week.
