Rebranding The Dinner Ladies: A Fresh Look for Australia's Tastiest Frozen Meals
The Dinner Ladies, originating from a Sydney backyard in 2007, required a rebrand that honored their unique origin while modernizing their visual and verbal identity. Their market niche, busy families seeking simple, homemade meals, was crowded with clichéd messaging. The rebrand brought back their distinctive, audacious character, focusing on "Food from the Heart."
Key elements included refining their logo, introducing a bright and modern color palette, and using the no-nonsense typeface ‘Denim.’ The tone of voice, crafted with Cat Wall, balanced empathetic caregiver with charming rebellion. Photography celebrated real-life dinner chaos, reflecting the brand’s authentic attitude. The rebrand revitalized The Dinner Ladies' identity, setting them up for future success.
