Dear
Mrs.
Matjekane



This
document
consists
of
the
minutes
obtained
from
a
brand
strategy

meeting
from
which
various
aspects
of
your
prospective
mobile
kitchen

business
were
discussed.
The
meeting
was
held
at
Vega,
School
of
Brand

Innovation
on
the
13th
of
May
2009.


The
final
recommendations
that
follow
are
the
key
findings
that
were

highlighted
in
the
meeting.
We,
as
a
team
of
brand
strategists,
advise
the

following
recommendations:

Company
Image:
Various
restaurant
styles
were
considered,
but
the
concept

of
an
Italian
Delicatessen,
proved
to
be
the
most
appealing
and
powerful

concept.

Company
Product:
the
final
products
that
are
to
be
sold
should
most

definitely
stick
to
the
‘Italian
Deli’
theme
but
at
the
same
time,
the
products

should
be
quick
and
easy
to
make
(possible
premade
elements)
but
at
the

same
time,
prove
to
be
a
delicious
and
healthy
alternative
for
possible

customers.
The
concept
of
a
diverse
menu
consisting
of
a
large
variety
of

practical
meals,
which
are
easily
packaged
and
transported
for
a
customer
on

the
move,
should
be
noted.

Company
Name:
Many
names
were
suggested
but
in
keeping
with
the
healthy

Italian
deli
theme,
the
name
‘Deli
de
la
Santo’
was
the
favorite.
‘Deli
de
la

Santo’
is
the
Italian
translation
of
‘Deli
of
Health’.

Company
Colors:
As
a
team,
we
decided
on
extremely
earthy
colors,
including

blacks,
browns,
dark
greens
as
well
as
shades
of
beige.
In
using
these
colors,
a

theme
is
created
which
has
been
passed
onto
the
logo.

Company
Logo:
In
order
to
follow
with
the
healthy
Italian
deli
theme,
it
has

been
decided
that
an
extremely
minimalistic
logo
should
be
adopted

consisting
of
hand
drawn
elements
instilling
a
somewhat
home
made
appeal.

The
use
of
beautiful
ornate
script
has
been
adopted
in
order
to
instill
a
sense

of
class
and
culture.
The
natural
earth
like
colors
selected,
will
too
be
clearly

seen
within
the
logo
and
follow
deep
within
all
company
branding.

A
watermark
is
implemented
in
order
to
avoid
Logo
being
too
simple.

Company
Uniform:
It
has
been
decide
that
the
company
uniform
should
too

be
extremely
simple
as
well
as
follow
theme
colors.
The
uniform
will
make
use

of
a
simple
golf
shirt,
with
basic
company
branding
located
on
the
top
left

quarter
of
the
shirt
front
as
well
as
across
the
back
top
segment
of
the
shirt.

Then
heavy
cargo
like
pants
will
be
adopted
as
well
as
simple
shoes
such
as

loafers
or
‘all
star’
sneakers.
An
extremely
plain
apron
may
too
be
adopted
for

specific
employees
(basic
company
branding
should
appear).

Company
Slogan:
many
options
were
considered,
but
a
final
concept
arose

which
implements
elements
of
simplicity
as
well
as
a
casual
stance.


‘Delicious,
healthy
Italian
cuisine,
for
people
on
the
move.’
the
slogan
is

clearly
simple
and
self‐explanatory.
It
is
written
in
a
somewhat
’handwritten’

script
which
too
instills
a
‘
home
made’
sense.




We
sincerely
hope
that
you
find
our
suggestions
and
findings
helpful.
We

thank
you
for
choosing
our
organization
as
a
viable
option.

We
hope
that
in

the
near
future
we
can
work
together
once
again,

Best
of
luck
with
your
future
business
ventures!

–

rush).

quick
easy
and

thus

be
kept
at
specific
quota.

how
important
market
research
is
going
to
be
in
order
for
this

project

succeed.

new
foods
should
be
placed
on
sale
based
on
a
trial
period

system
(establish
the

the
given
target
audience).

Rob
–
suggested
food
should
be
presented
in
a
attractive
manner;
in
