Gravesend has always faced two ways. Its riverfront looks out over the Thames, with the Town Pier (the oldest surviving cast-iron pier in the world) and centuries of maritime history behind it. Its railway looks to London, with High Speed services reaching St Pancras in around 22 minutes. That mix shapes the businesses here: independents around the St George’s and Thamesgate shopping centres, trade and logistics firms at Imperial Business Park and Canal Road, and a growing number of people running London-facing companies from DA11 and DA12.
Whatever end of that mix you sit in, the challenge is the same: standing out in a market where customers can just as easily pick a supplier in the capital. We’re a creative and digital studio based at Union Park in Maidstone. We’ll come to you in Gravesend to talk things through, you’re always welcome at our office, and our video crew travels to the town for shoots and events. This is where we can help:

Working with Dope Studio in Gravesend: FAQs
Are you based in Gravesend?
No. Our studio is at Union Park in Maidstone. Our team travels to Gravesend for client meetings and filming, and the door is always open if you'd like to visit.
Can you film at the Town Pier or along the riverside?
We can plan shoots around Gravesend's riverside locations. Some spots need permission from the landowner or operator, and we'll look into that as part of planning.
We sell mainly into London. Can you still help?
Yes. Many Gravesend firms do. We'll shape your brand, website and search strategy around the audience you actually sell to, wherever they are.
Can we meet you in person?
Of course, and we'd prefer it. We can meet you in Gravesend or welcome you at our Maidstone office, or set up a video call if that's easier.
