Challenge:

Kenter faced several challenges with its old brand that necessitated an evolution to align with the company's growth and changing market dynamics. While the name "Kenter International Logistics" had gained some recognition in the industry, the brand faced limitations that hindered its ability to fully represent the company's values and aspirations.

One of the key challenges was the brand's lack of clarity and distinctiveness. The name "Kenter International Logistics" did not effectively convey the company's unique value proposition and differentiators. As the business grew, it became evident that a more concise and impactful brand identity was required to resonate with target audiences and stand out in a competitive market.

Another challenge was the need to enhance the customer experience. The old brand identity did not effectively capture the company's commitment to exceptional customer service and innovative logistics solutions. To stay ahead in the industry, Kenter recognised the importance of delivering an outstanding customer experience that would not only attract new clients but also foster long-term relationships with existing ones.

Additionally, as the company expanded its services and global reach, it required a brand that could transcend language and cultural barriers. The old brand name, with its international connotations, limited the company's ability to connect with diverse markets and position itself as a truly global freight forwarding provider.

To address these challenges, the decision was made to evolve the brand to "Kenter." The new name retained the recognisable "Kenter" element, which had already gained some brand equity, while simplifying and modernising the overall brand identity. "Kenter" spoke for itself, conveying the company's core focus on providing comprehensive logistics solutions with excellence and efficiency.

By rebranding to "Kenter," the business could better reflect its growth, aspirations, and commitment to customer satisfaction. The new brand identity allowed the company to position itself as a global leader in the logistics industry, leveraging its expertise, innovation and customer-centric approach to drive continued success.
