Bold design for
a bold brand.

Econo Foods is one of South Africa's most widely recognised retail brands — a shopping destination that genuinely crosses cultural and demographic lines. In 2022, we were briefed to create digital marketing collateral that could do the same.

The Insight

A brand that belongs
to everyone.

Econo Foods' customer base is remarkably diverse. The brand doesn't belong to one community — it belongs to many, across regions and demographics, united by everyday value. That pointed us in a clear direction.

Their customers are also ready to be spoken to directly. Not through soft, hedging marketing language — but with the same confidence and colour the products themselves carry. The design had to be bold, product-forward, and honest. Something that earns attention rather than asks for it.

The Work

Designed to stop the scroll — and mean something.

We started with what Econo Foods actually does well: give people access to quality goods at honest prices. The creative built outward from that truth. Bold colour, confident typography, and product imagery that doesn't need a filter. The poster was designed to stand tall in-store and on-screen. The Instagram carousel took customers through the online ordering experience — step by step, with the same directness.
