Challenge

With a significant retail deal secured, MYCRO needed to refine its brand identity and packaging to appear more credible and professional next to established mushroom tincture competitors. The goal was to enhance legibility, maintain brand recognition, and create an eye-catching design that stood out on retail shelves while preserving its bold, alternative brand culture.

Solution

The brand underwent a strategic evolution to modernize its visual identity while retaining key elements like the bold logo and distinctive color palette. Packaging was redesigned for clearer communication of key benefits, such as "High Potency & Lab Optimized Absorption" and "100% Australian Grown & Extracted." The label design was refreshed for improved legibility and shelf presence, and A/B testing was introduced to optimize product claims placement.

Outcome

The evolved brand and packaging successfully positioned MYCRO as a credible and competitive player in the retail market. The new design increased consumer trust and product visibility, leading to a stronger retail presence and enhanced sales performance, solidifying MYCRO's position as a premium yet approachable indie challenger brand.
