An exchange, where the steepest fall cascades into the tallest transactions
The Concept – Charlie’s Bar Exchange as a concept is symbolic of the most influential and all pervasive economic identity in today’s world – THE STOCK EXCHANGE. The idea was simple yet mind boggling; like in a stock market, where figures and numbers of various listed companies keep on tumbling, Charlie’s Bar Exchange does the same with the choicest of brands in beers, vodkas, tequilas, cocktails and more. Charlie opens his bars with prices at rock bottom and then keeping the day and performance of the liquor in mind plays with it. Prices can go as low as the cost price of the items in the open market and even at the peak will generate value for its patrons. Adding to that, Charlie will have ‘Charlie’s Zero hour’ at 12 pm and midnight when all drinks will roll out at cost price. Located in the heart of South Delhi at Salcon Ras Vilas Mall, Saket, this unique concept makes Charlie’s Bar Exchange the brand for all aspiring young people; a modern pub, aimed to satisfy the ‘value for money’ desire of the urban youth. This is a place where Drinking is Fun.
Charlie – The guy! – Charlie is a guy next door, who believes in working hard and partying harder. Just like any other young professional, he is full of life and keeps on searching for good deals to enjoy his leisure time to the fullest. Charlie’s hunt for ‘value for money deals’ ends @ Bar Exchange, a revolutionary and unprecedented concept in the pub culture of the capital.
This not only solved Charlie’s idea of having fun while chilling out with friends but also opened the gateways to heaven for all those who are Charlie in their own way.
The “Bar Exchange” completely mocks the stock exchange environment viz-a-viz its look and the way prices go up and down, thereby giving its patrons/buyers the best stocks/liquors to choose from . The prices will change in a random manner, where one has to always look out for the best offers. One doesn’t know what he/she is going to pay for his/her liked brand, but gets fantastic offers if they are willing to experiment with the liquor brands and only trust Charlie’s judgments for the evening.
There will be times when the Bar Exchange will come crashing down and the pricing of the choicest of brand swill hit rock bottom and on the other hand, when the PUB-SEX is going strong, you have to shell out a premium rate for your favorite brand.
