Beginning of the End(cap)
When Unilever approached branding/communications firm, TFI Envision, it was to create the end cap graphics for two of their premier personal care brands: AXE and Dove. As these end caps were Walmart specific, our approach was a clean, straightforward design that communicates AXE and Dove branding, as well as Walmart’s mandatory messaging which incorporates Soundcheck, (A digital downloading service), Save Money and Live Better. We reinforced brand identity with strong positioning making Walmart’s indoor real estate that much more valuable. Using vibrant colors and sleek design, offering high visibility and visual impact, these displays can be found in your local Walmart store.

Meerkats at the Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk
