Bakso Cihampelas :Rebirthing Heritage Food Brands for Modern Family Demographics
Strategic Corporate Renaming to Drive Product Portfolio Diversification
Balancing Homemade Authenticity with Modern Retail Packaging Systems
We led the comprehensive brand rebirth, corporate renaming, and visual identity redesign for Cihampelas, a celebrated heritage food brand. To ensure the historic business remains deeply relevant to younger, modern audiences, we focused on strengthening its authentic heritage story while evolving its visual assets to compete in the contemporary retail landscape.
The core of our brand strategy involved a critical naming migration: transitioning Bakso Cihampelas into the streamlined corporate name Cihampelas. This calculated name change successfully removes category limitations, allowing the brand to diversify seamlessly beyond its famous meatballs into an expansive range of premium meat and processed food products. To support this growth, we delivered a fresh, scalable packaging system and a striking new visual identity. The creative design masterfully preserves a warm, trustworthy "homemade impression" while providing the clean, premium aesthetic required to attract next-generation consumers.
