A local designer for brands that need to look the part

I’m Amarildo Canga, a freelance graphic designer based in the Manchester and Bolton area. For ten years I’ve designed brands, catalogues and packaging, most of it in lighting, where I laid out Searchlight’s 235-page UK catalogue and built the Lux & Belle brand from its logo to its books and boxes.

Closer to home, I drew the Busy Lizzie identity for a florist in Horwich, flower by flower, and rolled it out across business cards, flyers, stickers and the shop sign.

If you run a shop, a trade business or a product brand in Bolton, I can help with a new logo, a brochure that sells, packaging for a launch or a steady run of social posts. You deal with me from the first chat to the final file.

Questions from Bolton businesses

Good to know before we start

Do you work with small businesses in Bolton?

Yes. Most of my freelance work is for small and growing brands: a first logo, a flyer, packaging for a launch or a monthly run of social posts.

How much does a logo or brand identity cost?

Every project is priced on its own once I know the scope. Send a brief with a rough budget and I’ll come back with a fixed quote, so there are no surprises.

How long does a project take?

It depends on the size of the job. You get a timeline with the quote, and you see concepts and proofs at every stage before anything is signed off.

Can you get my designs printed?

I supply print-ready artwork set up for your printer, from business cards and flyers to boxes, labels and 200-page catalogues.

How do I get in touch?

Send a brief through the contact page or call 07577 089179.
