Colada Creative in short

Colada Creative is a Telford agency producing social content, live events and video from its Stafford Park studio, for brands including named national clients on its site. A multi-disciplinary team covers content from shoot to activation, with current vacancies signalling a busy studio.

Customers rate Colada Creative at five stars on Google, the only public review source we hold, its largest review base in this round. Our review finds the national-brand portfolio is its strongest card. That portfolio is the reason to shortlist the firm.

The limited company behind Colada Creative dates to 2018, with the team stating it has created together since 2011. In our view the gaps are paperwork ones: no prices or rates are published, nor any insurance detail.

The review base is strong at 85 five-star Google ratings [3]. Gaps sit in pricing and insurance paperwork rather than anything adverse on the public record.
