88 Acres’ Seed Butter Debuts New Brand Identity from ROOK/NYC
Grace Mahas — April 8, 2022 — Marketing
88 Acres, the Boston-based food company, recently debuted a new seed butter brand identity refreshed by Independent Creative Agency, ROOK/NYC. The goal of the new packaging was to set product expectations, drive taste appeal, drive trials, and educate the consumer. The new design features a color palette that speaks to the flavor cues while the playful brand voice underscores familiar terms.
Mark Christou, Founder & Creative Partner, ROOK/NYC, commented on the new launch, stating: “The challenge here was how to help the consumer quickly and confidently understand what the product is. By integrating the smooth, delicious-looking Seed Butter within the label on the jar, we’re helping negate consumer confusion and ambiguity around the product. This redesign to the butter line will be a big step in further helping 88 Acres to grow beyond the natural channel into more of an iconic mainstay in the conventional snacking category.”
