I have an open mind and want everyone participating to be of the same mind. I know what I like when I see it but out of the gate I want everyone to be free with how they best put together our business concept to relation of our audiences perception.

* Global Gateway * A plate of food (something like a t-bone steak on it? or a plate of food that was just finished * A fork and knife running parallel on opposite sides of the plate * This could 'split' the card in half horizontally * The key is finding the right font for 'The Eclectic Connoisseur' (regardless of the design you choose) to reflect my earlier comments of being the 'friendly voice to all' but denoting our level of the respect we are trying to convey * SPECIAL NOTE: I STRONGLY suggest that if you are going to enter this competition to submit your OWN idea... I have ONLY added my two ideas BUT I am not a graphic designer... like your self. This is only to kick start you creative juices

We want to be the peoples global gateway to shop fine foods, wines, whiskies, cigars, coffee, recipes, cheeses etc. We have numerous social media marketing initiatives to create 'authoritative' content to try and garner people's loyalty and trust.

I want the logo to be thoughtful of this because being a 'Connoisseur' can denote a level 'SOPHISTICATED SNOBBERY' but Eclectic denotes a little 'CRAZY, WILD ABANDONMENT'. I stress again that I do not what us to intimidate our clientele. So I like to find common ground between these tow dichotomies that when people look at the logo they see themselves as an 'Eclectic Connoisseur... just like me... just like you
