Saatchi & Saatchi Romania launched Armonia water brand

Cristina Blanaru Branding, Business, Creativity

Saatchi & Saatchi Romania launched the Armonia water brand, the first water brand in Romania targeting consumers actively interested in regaining their physical and spiritual balance.

On a busy bottled water market, dominated by big players, the agency created from scratch a water brand inspired by Brasov’s energy, Armonia house.

Following a consumers’ segmentation and after identifying the opportunities associated to different consumption habits, Saatchi & Saatchi Romania made the product and brand strategy, that was afterwards declined at naming, brand identity and packaging design level.

When all the others give you “energy”, “vitality” or product’ attributes, the new water encourages a relaxed lifestyle, with focus on balance and inner peace.

The agency developed fully the communication plan in the launch phase, with a launch in stages from regional to national, both in modern Trade and HORECA, but also in the traditional trade

Saatchi & Saatchi believes a lot in the power of the local brands. Armonia is a project close to our soul, in which we invested a lot of energy and passion, together with the client team. We had the opportunity to build a new Romanian brand, from scratch, and that kept us motivated during the project. It was our ambition to create a coherent brand, on scientific basis, and the client trusted us every time, from setting up the strategy to the development of brand’s identity, packaging and launch strategy. We trust that Armonia has the vision and consistency to become one of the most successful local water brands
