Another High Street Rebrand

[tillyoshea]

The shop near me which opened as M&S Simply Food before rebranding to M&S Foodhall a few years ago has had all its signs taken down and changed again. It’s now M&S Food.

The website’s store finder still has the original name, because changing a name in a database is infinitely more challenging than blocking pavements for days, hiring cherry pickers and changing lighted external signage.

the Costa in Liverpool Street Station is getting a refurb, and they've uncovered what I believe is the pre-Whitbread signage:

Surprisingly charmless and shite. Good find!

Lilt has finally been axed as a brand, now subsumed into Fanta as "Fanta Pineapple and Grapefruit". Coca-Cola is promising nothing has changed to the flavour of the drink.

SCS have rebranded with a new logo. Their adverts are significantly calmed down with a softer colour palette - no more over-the-top voiceovers or dramatic sale events it seems.

I wonder how that will work with Pepsi Max - it'd be a shame to see that name dropped for (what looks to be a rather bland) Zero Sugar.

Have no fear, the UK Max brand has always diverged significantly from the mothership, even when Pepsi were trying to launch a product with the same name stateside. V much doubt they'll be throwing it away.

And not a very good one. Looks very old fashioned and blocky.
