Pemmican Beef Jerky Rebrand

 

Once an iconic American brand, Pemmican Beef Jerky had lost its place in the market. Category leaders focused on younger, edgier demographics and Pemmican followed suit—even reformulating their product—inadvertently alienating their loyal base. The rebrand was a chance for Pemmican to reconnect with tradition, with their long-time customers, and re-establish themselves as the brand for the outdoorsmen, the hunters, the fishermen. 

 
 
 
 

Our rebranding included market research, new key-art, packaging and a brand book to help align internal stakeholders and sales reps. The campaign aligned Pemmican with different great-outdoor occasions, and teamed up with corresponding partner brands. The new Pemmican website featured a rewards program where frequent purchasers could earn outdoor gear and free jerky for a year.
