PizzaExpress, the well-known UK pizza chain, is embarking on a brand rejuvenation journey under the guidance of design agency BRANDON. Their goal is to position the pizza brand not just for daily and weekly consumption but also for special occasions, making it a staple in homes and a must-have on shopping lists.
The updated portfolio is divided into three tiers: Icons, Restaurant Favourites, and Classics. Each tier is inspired by specific pizzas, and the packaging design showcases this inspiration through colorful and artistic elements. The use of different colors allows customers to easily identify the pizza tier they prefer.
The new brand identity extends across a range of PizzaExpress products, including pizzas, pizza sauces, pizza dough, Dough Balls, and salad dressings.
