Paisley Farm
[Rebrand]
Overview
Paisley Farm is an 80 year old company that produces a variety of jarred offerings like Five Bean Salad, Pickled Beats and Hot Brussels Sprouts. The brand has found success converting consumers to loyal fans through their high quality products, but are now looking to expand their product line beyond the jar and into the frozen and refrigerated sections.
Goals
Craft a new brand positioning, tagline, logo and brand identity that brings Paisley Farm into the modern era.
Launch three new products with new names & packages that reflect their new look in a new space: the frozen and refrigeration category.
Sell-in these three new products to Costco buyers and earn shelf space all year round.
Challenges
Little Brand Recognition: Paisley Farm is known as the bean-salad company. They have very little to no name recognition and are only recognized by their products.
Seasonal Products: Their current product line is purely seasonal, but newly launched products are designed for year-round shelf presence.
Struggle to obtain first-time buyers: Their high-quality products are beloved by a dedicated audience, but are struggling to break into new and expanded audiences.
Costco Buy-in: Paisley Farm is facing particularly challenging buy-in obstacles in their selected region.

Phase 1: Craft The Brand Strategy & Positioning
We initially developed several different high-level brand positioning statements with descriptions and mood boards that captured the essence of each idea.
