Matalan's new branding - in store now!

Matalan have now launched their re-branded lady's nightwear, lingerie, swimwear and kid’s footwear in stores across the UK.  axongarside was chosen as Matalan’s strategic branding partner and worked closely with the ladieswear team to devise a coherent branding strategy and inspiring new designs. 

Branding - Matalan Lingerie and Girl's Footwear

One of the leading UK destination retailers looked for a fresh pair of eyes when they approached axongarside to assist with their branding project. axongarside has a strong foothold in the B2B technology sector, but always thrives on new challenges. 

Whilst Matalan had a coherently branded lady’s fashion range, their accessory range lacked integration and was not reflective of customer’s shopping behavior.
 
The introduction of the ‘Essentials by Matalan’ and ‘Papaya Pink’ lingerie and nightwear brands, as well as the ‘Candy Girl’ footwear brand were core to creating a fresh look, whilst providing continuity across the ranges and retaining established brand values.

New look for UKWA

 UKWA chose the Association's annual lunch at the Dorchester to release its new corporate identity, developed by axongarside as part of a wider re-branding and online marketing project.

The United Kingdom Warehousing Association (UKWA) has formally unveiled a new corporate identity. The Association chose axongarside as its partner for this project partly because of our long history in B2B brand development and experience in the logistics sector but mostly because of our innovative proposals to include a user-generated website at the centre of a strategy to recruit new members.

The new look has been developed to signify the Association’s ongoing evolution as an organisation that embraces all companies that provide warehousing or other logistics support services in the supply chain.

“The new logo is symbolic of the changes that are happening within UKWA,” said Roger Williams, the Association’s chief executive officer. “We believe our new logo is modern, fresh and inspired. The logo is a symbol for our organisation and because UKWA is changing we felt that we needed a different symbol.”

Roger continued: “During the course of the last 14 months, UKWA has undertaken a methodical strategic review of its role and its widening areas of interest. We aim to attract new companies and deliver more tangible benefits to our long standing members to ensure that more and more businesses see belonging to UKWA as vital to their ongoing success.”

The new UKWA website will be launched later this summer.
