We were asked to implement a new brand identity, including communications and engagement for internal and external stakeholders.

Formerly known as Atnahs, this UK based pharma company undertook a strategic repositioning exercise which resulted in a new name and brand identity to support its strategic vision globally.

 

STRATEGIC REPOSITIONING

Founded in 2013, the company has grown from a small family business operating solely in the UK to a global specialty pharma business of 200+ employees, marketing 20+ brands across 140+ markets.

Detailed research and benchmarking led to the development of a new name and brand identity which better reflects their position as the original medicines specialist globally and a progressive global specialty pharma business.

The new brand identity was developed by WhyBrand. 

IMPLEMENTATION PLANNING

Following sign-off of the new identity, we worked closely with the Pharmanovia team to set up a full physical audit to identify all their branded assets. Bringing together representatives from IT, HR, Finance, Marketing, Facilities and Legal, we helped to project manage the change of identity within a short timescale of just 12 weeks.

Reporting was co-ordinated through our online project management portal, accessible 24/7 and updated in real time.

'GLIMMA provided both central project management and strategic communications support for our rebrand. The team quickly put in place the right framework to identify and replace all our branded assets. At the same time they worked intuitively with all stakeholders to ensure that everyone, from staff to suppliers, understood our strategic repositioning.'

SIGNAGE

Our UK team installed new signage at their head office in Basildon, including the painting of bollards, fascia branding and a brand new lit totem.

Three new digital screens, with remote Content Management System, welcome visitors and help the company to communicate more efficiently and in real-time with employees.


WORKPLACE BRANDING

To make the new brand come to life in the workspace, we used their company values and an update-able world map to convey their new global positioning.

Given that employees have been working from home for 12 months+ due to Covid, the branding of the workplace is a key motivator as employees return to the workplace and start to feel emotionally connected to the new brand.

MAGNIFYING THE ICE CREAM EXPERIENCE

Creambell Ice Creams has a national presence with a disproportionate awareness and equity in North India. GLIMMA’S objective was to celebrate and magnify the ice cream experience through their parlours by creating fun & excitement that is driven through design and to design a unique visual identity for Cream Bell Parlors that will not only draw the consumers in but also set the brand distinctly apart from its competitors.

STORE CONCEPT– “Life is Better with Friends and Ice Cream”

With a concept routed in the simple enjoyment we experience when eating an ice cream, instilled with memories of childhood, and the excitement and joy of the discovery of something new, Cream Bell ”CreamLand” provides a space where you can re-engage with that childlike wonder and discover the many flavours of Cream Bell.

Taking cues from the wave of experiential venues and the rise of gamification in the retail playground along with the ‘on trend’ design styling from the latest contemporary sweet treat retailers, the interior offers a sense of fun and curiosity with a bright internal palette, coupled with simple ‘soft’ and oversized forms to create a moment of childlike escapism balanced with a contemporary edge.

 

The interior palette was inspired by the colours and textures of the desserts themselves, the softer forms, the vibrant tones tempered by hues of vanilla and creams, with warm tones of the waffle, its regimented pattern rolled or fractured in to shards.
