Introducing the Client
Built from a dream more than 30 years ago, Kermez Café was established in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in 2018 as a family business. The goal was to open a coffee shop with a warm and affectionate character as if it was your own home. Ever since then, the café has been serving its customers not only great coffee and food but also a great environment and experience to treasure.
Client’s Challenges
The main challenges that the team considered and studied before starting any stage were:
–Rebuild the commercial identity of Kermez Cafe without obliterating its previous basic identity to create a new and modern identity adhering to its values rooted in its long history in the sector.
–Enhancing the company’s digital visibility due to the weakness of that aspect, especially in the finance sector, and highlighting its voice in the digital world and beyond, to appear in a manner befitting its history.
–Increasing brand awareness and portraying its experiences and history to the public.
Our Strategic Approach
As with any of our branding projects, we start off with a thorough audit and research the brand’s strengths and weaknesses, as well as its competitors’ and benchmarks’, followed by a brand workshop where we help the key stakeholders discover the brand’s true essence through a series of interactive activities. Analyzing all the information gathered in the workshop, we developed a strong brand strategy which then served as the basis for the creative development process.
Keeping in mind the client’s high regard for the brand identity that has served the organization for many decades, we carefully curated different new brand identity options that incorporated the key elements that the client felt strongly to keep. After a few review sessions and some adjustments here and there, Kermez Cafe’s new brand identity was officially signed off.
The brand guidelines, brand toolkit, and media test were also delivered to complete the full branding project.
