Fruit5: Disruptive Smoothie Brand for UK Market Launch

Situation: Creating Brand Identity for Disruptive Smoothie Brand

Fruit5 is a company that makes smoothies sold in supermarkets, coffee shops and various other outlets.

Challenge: Create and launch a disruptive smoothie into the UK market initially and then roll it out internationally. This included coming up with a brand strategy and visual branding.

The smoothie market requires brands that communicate health, natural ingredients, and unique positioning. Fruit5 needed a brand identity that would launch a disruptive smoothie into the UK market with plans for international rollout.

Task: Create Brand Strategy and Visual Branding

The challenge required:

• UK market launch: Brand strategy that launches disruptive smoothie in UK market
• International rollout: Brand that enables international rollout after UK launch
• Brand strategy: Complete brand strategy development based on “5 A Day” concept
• Visual branding: Visual branding that stands out with bold, simple, iconic language

Action: Strategic Brand Development

Brand Solution: “5 A Day” Concept

Brand Solution: Fruit5 is a company that makes smoothies sold in supermarkets, coffee shops, and various other outlets. Based on the concept of “5 A Day” which is any of various national campaigns in countries such as the USA, the United Kingdom, and Germany, to encourage the consumption of at least five portions of fruit and vegetables each day.

The Fruit5 smoothies are made of 100% natural and organic ingredients that are grown and sourced locally. With no artificial flavors, preservatives, or additives, the Fruit5 smoothies are healthy alternatives to most smoothies found in the market.

Brand Strategy: Bold, Simple, and Iconic

The brand strategy involved creating awareness of the 100% natural and locally sourced ingredients that form the core of the brand. To support that strategy, the visual language had to be bold, simple, and iconic. To facilitate this, we created an iconic logo that looks like it is made from the peels of the fruit. This gives it a very fresh and natural look and feel. We also created a series of secondary icons that would be used on the various flavors of smoothies with simple iconic fruit symbols and color codes.

Result: Disruptive Brand That Stands Out

The brand identity we created for Fruit5 successfully launches a disruptive smoothie brand into the UK market. The comprehensive brand transformation delivers:

The brand strategy based on “5 A Day” concept, combined with the iconic fruit peel logo design and secondary icons with fruit symbols and color codes, creates a bold, simple, and iconic visual language that creates awareness of 100% natural and locally sourced ingredients. The brand successfully positions Fruit5 as a company that makes smoothies sold in supermarkets, coffee shops, and various other outlets, made of 100% natural and organic ingredients that are grown and sourced locally, with no artificial flavors, preservatives, or additives, creating healthy alternatives to most smoothies found in the market, with plans for international rollout after UK market launch.
