EXAMPLE: SILAFRICA
We Make Packaging Roar.
While the company had grown significantly over the last several years to become one of the leading packaging companies in Kenya and the surrounding region, Silafrica was still somewhat of an unknown entity among the global packaging industry, as well as with many global consumer packaged brands. We introduced a new brand identity befitting a regional leader, and a company fully capable of supporting top global brands. This included a new message, “We Make Packaging Roar.” This was a tribute to the region, the legacy brand mark, and the company’s commitment to elevate the brand experience through packaging for consumers throughout Africa.
