Bossini takes new brand to market

HONG KONG - Apparel brand Bossini has kicked off its long-awaited rebranding campaign with a gala re-opening of its flagship store in spopular shopping district Mongkok, timed to coincide with a widespread promotional campaign.

Amid increasing competition from the likes of Giordano and U2, the repositioning is part of a wider effort to make the brand appear younger and edgier, according to Bossini chiefs.

Spearheaded by television, the push also includes print, radio, outdoor and ambient media. Additional activities include the development of a revamped corporate identity, staff training, moves to enhance the shopping experience and a greater line-up of products to choose from.

A series of limited edition ‘Icon' products have also launched to mark the new brand identity.
