Specialty Coffee — Brand Identity & Packaging

Brand Identity

A premium identity and packaging system for a Rwandan coffee roaster selling locally and abroad.

About Project

Rwandan coffee is among the best in the world, but the roaster’s packaging did not say so. We built an identity that tells the story of the hills where the beans grow — and looks at home on a shelf in Kigali or abroad.

Let’s Talk

Challenges

— Challenge

The brand looked generic next to imported coffees.

Packaging had to work for 250g retail bags and 5kg wholesale sacks.

— Approach

A bold wordmark, a colour for each origin and illustrated hill contours.

A modular label system that printers can produce locally at low cost.

Results & Metrics

A distinctive shelf presence and a brand guideline the roaster uses for every new product.
