The brand relaunch for the German-speaking market. Our task was a comprehensive packaging redesign with strategic repositioning: moving away from a functional, technical appearance towards an independent brand attitude that stands out on the shelf and sticks in people’s minds. <\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

Initial situation.<\/h2>\n\n

The traditional French brand d’aucy has stood for vegetable expertise from producers for decades. The aim was to reinterpret this origin for the German and German-speaking market – clearer, of higher quality and closer to the expectations of a conscious target group. <\/p>\n\n

The previous image was strongly product-oriented and technical: silver cans, dominant images, factual information. In the competitive environment, this made the brand appear interchangeable – with little emotional connection and little visible competence of origin. <\/p>\n\n

Especially in a market dominated by promotional print and private labels, visual clarity is decisive for perception and value. The brand had substance – but its appearance lacked strategic sharpness. <\/p>\n\n

The vegetable growers’ brand.<\/h2>\n\n

The aim was not a cosmetic update, but the development of a clear position: more competent, more natural, more credible<\/strong>. The central differentiation lever was the agricultural DNA of the brand – as an attitude and as a visually tangible promise. The positioning core: “The vegetable farmers’ brand<\/strong> ” – as an anchor for origin, trust and quality. <\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n

From technical to natural. From functional to emotional. <\/h2>\n\n

With the relaunch, we have taken d’aucy back to its roots in terms of design: away from the technical commodity look and towards a brand world that makes craftsmanship and naturalness visible – without losing sight of the shelf logic.<\/p>\n\n

The new brand world.<\/h2>\n\n

The new design translates naturalness and quality into an independent visual language – with a clear system across the entire range.<\/p>\n\n

    \n
  • Warm, natural shades instead of a technical silver look<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • High-quality, calm typography with a clear hierarchy<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Reduced, honest product presentation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Stronger emphasis on origin and brand identity<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Clear orientation on the shelf thanks to differentiated variety labeling<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

    The black brand panel acts as a concise sender: it creates recognizability, bundles the range and acts as a visual signature on a highly competitive shelf.<\/p>\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n

    Rethinking shelf impact.<\/h2>\n\n

    The strategic realignment becomes clear in a direct comparison of “old vs. new”: a functional canned product becomes a strong brand presence with emotional quality. The new design creates more value, more naturalness and a significantly stronger differentiation in the competitive environment. <\/p>\n\n

      \n
    • More perceived quality and trust<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • More differentiation from private labels<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • More clarity and recognition at the POS<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Stronger brand management instead of pure price comparability<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n

      System instead of individual design.<\/h2>\n\n

      In addition to the individual products, the multipack system has also been rethought. A modular design ensures consistency across formats – from single packs to multi-packs – and enables clean scaling for variety, product lines and future expansions. <\/p>\n\n

      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n

      French origin. German market requirements. A clear brand attitude. <\/h2>\n\n

      The relaunch is a change of position – not just visually, but strategically: d’aucy appears on the German-speaking market as an origin-based, independent brand offering that creates value through attitude and clarity.<\/p>\n\n

        \n
      • Significantly stronger shelf presence<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Higher perceived value through reduction and materiality<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Consistent brand presence across all containers and pack formats<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Sustainably scalable design architecture for product range and innovation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
