What Was Mela’s Branding Challenge?

Mela Water struggled with a generic design that lacked vibrancy and failed to differentiate itself on store shelves. Despite a high-quality product, their branding failed to convey their bold, refreshing nature.

How Nexus Digital Approached the Redesign

We started by analyzing market trends and conducting a competitor analysis. Our team developed a playful visual identity using hand-drawn illustrations and a vibrant color palette to reflect Mela Water’s refreshing flavors.

The results speak for themselves:

• 500% increase in shelf appeal

• New retail partnerships

In this blog, we’ll explore the strategies behind Mela’s bold transformation and how your business can leverage similar tactics to achieve impactful results.

Before the Transformation

When Mela first approached Nexus Digital, their branding faced significant obstacles:

• A Generic Identity: Their visual identity failed to stand out in the competitive beverage aisle.

• Missed Emotional Connection: Their branding didn’t resonate with their health-conscious audience.

• Retail Limitations: Without a cohesive brand, securing partnerships with major retailers was challenging.

Mela needed a rebrand that aligned with their bold product offering and positioned them as a leader in the market.
