What we did

Challenge

Back in 2014, Agon Systems’ CEO Sean Welch chose us – a leading branding agency in Sussex – to help him grow his business into a global player in the EAS (Electronic Article Surveillance) industry.

Agon was well positioned to make a huge impact in the world of retail security, but it had a significant problem; its branding and marketing hadn’t been looked at for over 20 years.

Solution

The first thing we needed was a defined brand strategy, which would in turn inform the new brand identity and how the business represents itself visually.

With a premium product that was priced at the top end of its marketplace, a high-quality look and feel was essential in positioning Agon Systems properly in front of its target customers.

Once the new brand identity was established, a full-scale global rollout was put in place across physical and digital touchpoints, covering everything from its websites to exhibition stands.
