A project example

A newly founded company plans to develop and launch a wide range of dietary supplements. A new internationally suitable company name is required as well as a selection of product names to be used as family brands for the various product lines. It is important that each of the family brands is modularly expandable, that the individual sub-categories are marked by additional designations and that all regulatory and trademark law requirements are met in every form. In addition to a company name that is highly distinctive and capable of being profiled, innomark GmbH develops a larger number of product line names and labelling additives that successfully identify the different brand families in the market and meet all the aforementioned requirements.
