Yes Yes

When the Saimaa Brewery came to MacWell with the opportunity to develop a brand proposition and communication strategy, there was only one thing to say, and that was: “yes, yes”. The concept was simple: create a uniquely Nordic ‘real cider’ that appealed to a more discerning consumer. A consumer who has grown beyond the acceptance of mass produced ciders commonly found on the store shelves.

Outokumpu is the global leader in sustainable stainless steel. Their customers use stainless steel to build bridges and buildings, produce cars, trains and trucks, and manufacture household appliances and utensils. Outokumpu is known in the market for their unmatched expertise in stainless steel as well as the quality of their products.

MacWell worked with Outokumpu’s brand and communications team to develop and produce engaging materials to fuel pride in employment, help raise interest in new products and support Outokumpu’s position as a global leader in stainless steel.

With the focused assortment of flavors, and the willingness to commit to a unique visual language, our mandate was clear: develop a brand that establishes a position of superior taste and exceptional craftsmanship.

Forget the ordinary.
Say YES to handcrafted.
Say YES YES to the real taste of Nordic berries.

Obviously, the competition for share of shelf and share of mind in retail is tough. It was critical to cut through the clutter with a brand identity for YES YES that was based on the fundamentals, but slightly tweaked to cause visual disruption on shelf without resorting to tired cliché.

With a minimalistic Scandinavian approach to labeling, the YES YES brand is readily identified and then further augmented using colourful and flavour specific patterns for both the year round and seasonal offerings.
