Discover

AVet needed to simplify the petcare product purchase experience for vets, wholesalers, and pet owners, who were feeling limited affinity for the brand. We were asked to develop a new brand, including a name, visual ID and packaging design.

 

Plan

Through research of AVet’s target audiences, we found people were fed up with complexity in pet care product ranges. Our resulting strategy of simplification underpinned the whole brand, starting with a new name, Wagg & Purr. We created space for the brand to buck the scientific naming trend, with a playfulness and joy reflecting the pet-owner, and pet-vet connection.

Deliver

Wholesalers, Vets and Pet Owners now engage with Wagg & Purr on an entirely new, more compelling, emotional level, that reflects and respects the human animal bond. We achieved this through a brand identity that uses fresh and friendly graphic design, verbal and visual identity to span the entire product range – giving products maximum cut through and an engaging shelf presence.
