Het Ontwerp

Over Theo Rebrand Chocoladeverpakking

Theo Rebrand is een verpakkings- en visueel identiteitsprogramma voor een fairtrade bean-to-bar chocolademerk. Het ontwerp gebruikt een krachtige verfstreek als venster naar smaakontdekking en als uitdrukking van het vakmanschap achter premium chocolade. Een witte achtergrond suggereert gezond eten en zuiverheid van ingrediënten, en helpt de verpakkingen op te vallen in het schap. Repen meten ongeveer 3 bij 6 inch en gebruiken een papieren omwikkeling met een folie binnenlaag. Bekers meten ongeveer 2 bij 4 inch en gebruiken een flowwrap op een matte ondergrond. Het doel is om hogere normen te verbinden met een goede smaak.

Achter het Ontwerp

Credits, teamleden en technische details verstrekt door de ontwerper.

Unieke Eigenschappen: Theo Chocolate pioneered fair-trade, bean-to-bar chocolate. But when new players came along and fair trade was table stakes, it was time to differentiate. Consumers wanted their choice in chocolate to be simple. We needed to show the link between higher-standard chocolate and good taste. We clarified brand purpose, expanding their offerings through innovation. For design, we prioritized elements that were central to this story and developed a confident visual identity across the ecosystem
Afmetingen & Verpakking: Bars are approximately 3 x 6 inches - paper overwrap with foil inner / cups are approximately 2x4 inches flow-rap on matte substrate
Tags: branding, rebrand, packaging redesign, fairtrade chocolate, brand transformation, future-ready branding, brand purpose
Productietechnologie: The project started with a segmentation study to understand the premium chocolate category and consumer, including current and future Theo consumers. Following segmentation, we did a brand equities study to understand what elements were central, supporting and not relevant to Theo's study. From there, we defined a differentiated brand purpose and positioning platform which ultimately inspired the creative idea, Boldly Reimagined.
Ontwerpuitdaging: Growth had slowed and there was pressure to turn the brand back to positive growth quickly.Before reimagining Theo visually and verbally, we had to understand the premium chocolate consumer, the category and where they fit within it. We wanted to ensure we understood the role of the current brand equities before moving forward. Theo also had great attributes to communicate and part of the challenge was to prioritize the messages that were most meaningful to consumers.
Onderzoek: Research included an online consumer segmentation to understand the premium chocolate category and consumer, including current and future Theo consumers. For qualitative research, we did both ethnographies and brand equities research online to evaluate the role and meaning of key brand equities. The results included consumer segments, a bullseye consumer target profile, a core consumer insight, and a tangible brief with recommendations for brand evolution.
Inspiratie: Our design was inspired by Boldly Reimagined - bringing consumers closer to the layered beauty of responsibly sourced chocolate. We used the bold paint stroke as a window to taste discovery and an expression of the craft of premium chocolate. The white background suggests clean eating, purity of ingredients and allows the pack to cut through visual clutter on shelf. The paint stroke is a distinct element that stands out within the category. The Theo brand mark itself of idiosyncratic quality.
Projectduur: 6 months from kickoff to delivery of final packaging.
Werkproces: Based on Designalytics’ consumer evaluation and sales performance, it’s clear that shoppers are sweet on the new design.
