About us
Akatori Works started as a passion project built around a love of cars, creativity, and community. As the brand has grown, so too has our experience in ecommerce, website development, SEO, branding, content creation, and digital marketing.
I'm Laura, the enthusiat behind the brand, but really, the work is done by my husband, Max. He is an experienced marketing professional who has worked across hospitality, healthcare, heritage, charities, ecommerce, and the automotive sector. Over the past six years, we've helped businesses and organisations improve their online presence, attract new customers, and grow sustainably.
Whether you're launching a new venture, developing an existing business, or promoting a charity or community organisation, we provide practical, straightforward support tailored to your goals and budget.
While a Toyota MR2 merchandise store might not be the first place you'd expect to find marketing professionals, Akatori Works is perhaps the best example of what we can do. From branding and website development to SEO, ecommerce, and content creation, everything you see here has been built by us from the ground up, and we'd love to help do the same.
We're not just marketers. We've built businesses ourselves.
From launching and growing Akatori Works to supporting organisations across hospitality, healthcare, heritage, charities, ecommerce, and automotive sectors, we've seen first-hand what it takes to attract customers, build a brand, and grow sustainably.

"Max helped us improve our Google Business Profile and manage social media, which has made a real difference to our online presence. Things are much more consistent no. We've seen more engagement from customers, and it's one less thing for us to worry about while running the business. We'd definitely recommend him."
