Adding life to Sudan’s most trusted food brand

Al Farasha is Sudan’s most trusted food brands, a name that can be recognised in nearly every home in Sudan. A product range from Morouj Commodities, it has become A symbol of stability for the people in the region, Al Farasha fulfils essential needs and provides a wide range of food products of the highest quality. Products families can trust with their eyes closed. From smooth tomato paste to organic lentils; from fine flour to tasty sauces, Al Farasha’s wide ranging products are all united under one name: Al Farasha.

The Shift

Al Farasha had strong recognition for a single product. As Morouj expanded into new categories, the challenge was to unify all products under one trusted name without confusing customers, and to create packaging that stands out in an inconsistent, cluttered market.

The Breakthrough

A strategy that retained the equity of the Al Farasha name, turning it into a cross-category masterbrand. We redesigned the identity, elevated the butterfly symbol, and created a packaging system that delivers maximum shelf impact in any retail condition. The result: stronger brand recognition, simplified product launches, and a bolder in-market presence.

The power of a familiarity

Rather than invent new sub-brands, we advised Morouj to leverage the name Al Farasha across all commodity products. This created a single, recognisable brand that boosted customer trust, simplified marketing, and made product expansion faster and more cost-effective.

A brand is the set of expectations, memories, stories, and relationships that, taken together, account for a consumer’s decision to choose one product or service over another.

Butterfly as an icon

We evolved the original butterfly into a central design element, a distinctive holding device across all SKUs. The refreshed logotype used modern Arabic calligraphy paired with a clean English subscript, creating brand consistency while feeling fresh and local.

Designed for Sudanese shelves

We analysed real-world retail conditions in Sudan, where most packaging is transparent and products are displayed from various angles. Our packaging system used bold colours and clear labels that deliver visibility no matter how they’re stacked. A functional design for a chaotic shelf.

Launch built on simplicity and familiarity

The campaign was straightforward and confident: showing the before-and-after transformation of the Al Farasha brand. No heavy messaging, no storytelling. Just a clear signal of growth, trust, and relevance, all built around the butterfly’s evolution.
