The California Wine Institute
(CWI) faced the challenge of integrating the disparate
branding in its key export-targeted countries,
so as to create a single logo that integrated
the various images of California in those countries.
This was achieved by undertaking a survey of various
restaurateurs in those countries and their perceptions
of California wine. The results were then used
to select a logo that presented an image CWI aspired
to reach in future marketing efforts and suggest
improvements that would optimize the logos functionality
once in market. The information collected in the
logo research also allowed the CWI to present
a well documented market position to its staff
and move forward with the rollout across the UK
and Europe.
