#1 Competitor #2 Competitor

Before
Enhanced the appetite appeal & quality perception.
Created a label that quickly told the story of the product’s artisan quality and specialized aging process.
Increased appetite appeal through larger photos that introduce product usage ideas and eating occasions.
Targeted a specific demographic: For this new yogurt cereal line, women were the target market.
Targeted to Women
Created a stronger emotional connection (right brain) with the “couple” using the sub-branding of “Perfect for Two.”
Quick, clear, prioritized flow of the many rational, value oriented (left brain) purchase drivers.
Before
Strengthened the communication of the product’s selling proposition - Restaurant quality food made easily at home.
Created a unique flavor variety communication - Magnifying glass tells the story of what’s inside.
Elevated the brand’s quality perception over competitive products with similar positioning.
Enhanced appetite appeal with close-up, engaging photography, while portraying a more “gourmet quality” look.
Before
After
The right name and logo for Sandwich Thins that supports our positioning of
“we changed our shape to help you change yours.”
Developed imagery that conveys what words fail to do. Saying the words “Restaurant Quality” is not convincing anyone.
But LOOKING like a quality restaurant sells the product!
Consistent brand Architecture keeps your branding strong across many different product
types and categories.
A better eye flow of prioritized visual communications creates a more harmonious impression & connection with the shopper.
DePersico Creative has specialized in the art/science of “visually selling” food brands for
almost 40 years across three generations of family.
We continue to prove how our creative strategies and design expertise
