Sun-Maid, the better-for-you, whole fruit snack brand, is ushering in a new look and feel through its packaging, including its pouches, to reflect what modern shoppers are looking for—simplicity and transparency. The brand's iconography has been one of the most recognizable brand visuals for the last 100+ years. But today's consumer has changed, and Sun-Maid is meeting evolved expectations through an updated logo and refreshed design across all products.

The brand wanted to keep the nostalgia of the classic look intact as well. Carefully curated with the help of consumer feedback, the package makeover includes illuminated modifications to the sunrays and a refashioned image of the Sun-Maid girl. Consumer insights guided the brand to maintain existing design with minor updates to the sun. Overwhelmingly, today's shoppers know and love Sun-Maid as a recognizable, timeless and trusted brand. They expressed the importance of the brand preserving its identity and warm nostalgic feel while appealing to its millennial target.

Along with the design update, the brand also introduced new packaging graphics to highlight key product differentiation, functional product benefits and appetite appeal—all with a modernized font. Consumers will now see meaningful callouts, including "0g of added sugar" and "made with whole fruit," along with the influential Non-GMO Project verification on the front of the package.

"The redesign was a delicate balance between updating a package that hadn't been touched since the 1970s, and not disrupting the recognition and awareness we have with this loved brand," said Harry Overly, president and CEO of Sun-Maid. "The beloved Sun-Maid Girl and logo debuted over a century ago and gives the brand the trusted and timeless identity it enjoys today. The reintroduction maintains our icon and adds fresh aesthetics and important information about our better-for-you snacks to our package, which today's shopper demands."
