ABOUT

Shokri started in 1981, sourcing high quality produce from Tunisia, Morocco and other origins for the UAE market. Over four decades they became a trusted supplier to hotels, supermarkets and institutions across the region. The business had scale. The identity? Not so much.

THE CHALLENGE

The old brand name, Shokri Hassan Trading Co., was long, formal and hard to use across digital. The visual identity was complicated and did not reflect the company’s pace or reliability. The owners wanted a brand that respected their story but could live on websites, trucks, invoices, packaging and tenders.

STRATEGY

We focused on what actually kept Shokri alive for 40 years. Discipline, relationships and consistent quality. Not just “fresh.” We built the brand around that work ethic.

Verbal identity
media

We created the tagline “Rooted in Excellence.” It speaks to origin, to farming, to doing things properly, and to their early days trading produce across borders. The tone of voice is straightforward, blue collar, service oriented. No empty freshness clichés.

Naming and brand idea
media

We shortened the name to Shokri. Clean, memorable, stronger. It signals the transition from a family trading business to an institutional supplier.

media

We designed a logomark that works well on packaging, digital headers and fleet. Simple shape, strong presence.

media

We built modular key graphics to represent different buyer needs. That gave the brand range without losing consistency.

Visual identity

We selected a neon green and dark green palette to stand out from the usual leafy greens and browns in the category. The combination feels active and modern, which matches a company that sources daily and delivers to demanding clients.

Web design and rollout

We designed a web presence that tells the story in a few sections. Heritage, capability, sectors served, product range. Easy for procurement teams to understand who Shokri is.
