Lianhua Supermarkets unveils its new corporate rebranding
Lianhua Supermarkets, a 28-year-old state-owned Chinese retailer, has undergone a complete brand refresh. The new corporate rebranding, including a refreshed logo and instore signage and design, is being rolled out across the retailer’s 42 stores in China including Shanghai, Hangzhou, Anhui, Guangxi, Henan, etc.
Like many traditional Chinese retail brands, Lianhua’s efforts to attract and retain customers were focused on in-store promotion and pricing. However, the Chinese retail industry has undergone tremendous changes in recent years. Numerous digitally-driven and technology-led retail brands have seized the market share and disrupted China’s retail industry bringing fresh and seamless online to offline retail experiences to China’s increasingly discerning consumers. To deal with the external challenges, Lianhua felt the need to change and define touchpoints to re-establish the connection with consumers amidst fierce competition in China’s retail industry.
Recognizing the importance of branding, Lianhua has undergone a complete brand refresh, from strategy to concept, design and finally, in-store execution through their strategic partnership with Superunion, facilitating the execution of their business strategy.
