The previous brand identity
The best convenience store supermarket brand strategy by our International branding agency.
We re-branded the business with a new identity and supported this work stream with the development of a comprehensive POS brand toolkit.
The outcome of our collaboration with Monetka management produced the following results: A new brand identity for the discount stores. A new sub-brand for their private label. Merchandising systems design and shop layout planning. POS and communication suites applied in-store and online. The project was successfully implemented in 2 pilot stores, followed by a large-scale rollout programme across the chain.
