Another High Street Rebrand

[Philip]

certainly white lettering would have been better IMO.

Do you have some sort of influence in high places?

[Martin Phillp]

That's a lot better.

Subway has a new logo:

And just like the Co-op, it's more like going back to the "old logo"! Well not exactly the same, but very similar!

On one hand the rollout could be easy as they just have to update the logo when they buy the sandwich wrapping paper, and disposable cups etc. There are few slow moving branded items, or a vast product range, to worry about.

However, new store signage for well over 2,000 outlets can't be cheap. You'd presume franchise holders don't have to pay extra for the rebrand.

I wonder how long it will take them to update all the stores though, there's a branch in Nottingham that still has the pre-2001 logo on it!

Wow, didn't know Subway was even in the UK until after the newer logo (which that shop is also showing - why didn't they change the main sign at the same time?) was introduced.

I love this sign in West Quay Southampton dating from when the centre opened in 2000 now containing 3 well out of date logos! (sorry it's a bit blurry!)

[Jovis]

They all look like they're the same font to me - surely not out of date, rather never actually designed to be the logos at all?

[JAS84]

Looks like they jumbled up the fonts from the three logos...




They are meant to be the logos, but the signmakers screwed up.

The Marks & Spencer logo starts right, then moves into the wrong font after a few letters!
