Martin's Family Fruit Farm, located in Waterloo, Ontario, was founded in the 1970s and has grown today to rank as one of the largest apple growers and packers in the province. Martin's apples find their way to supermarket shelves in the U.S., Canada and Europe.
Challenge: Martin's faced several challenges that prompted them to partner with Cassel Bear. First, the Martin's Family Fruit Farm did not have a consistent brand. Several logos were being used on platforms such as the apple boxes, vinyl graphics on the trucking fleet, and on-site signage. Martin's also saw a growing opportunity at their retail store, and wanted to increase sales. As part of this initiative, they decided to renovate the interior of the store, and to begin a greater promotion of the location. Summary of Challenges:
- Inconsistent brand
- Multiple logos
- Poor signage
- Local awareness low
- Retail store interior renovation
Solution: Cassel Bear implemented a process to bring the necessary brand changes to the company. A stylistic direction for Martin's was defined, and then work began on the identity system and was implemented throughout the company on all platforms.
The retail store renovation and promotion was effective and has increased sales substantially. Martin's credits the increased sales to the increased awareness of the location. Cassel Bear assisted Martin's by creating signage, advertising, and mailings for the business.
