CORPORATE COMMUNICATION

HISTORY

Since 1972, we’ve brought the traditions, tools and tastes of the world to people who love to cook and entertain. Sur La Table was founded in Seattle’s historic Pike Place Farmers Market. From the beginning our goal was simple: to create the best place for cooks to shop. At a time when it was difficult to find premium culinary tools, Sur La Table was inspired by classic French cookware and techniques. Our unique selection of hard-to-find and cutting-edge utensils soon had food enthusiasts from around the globe making a pilgrimage to Seattle. Nearly four decades later, Sur La Table is still a culinary mecca — an exciting, interactive place to celebrate cooking.

BRAND GUIDE LINE // ON THE TABLE

Sur La Table wants its wares on (in French, sur) your table -- and countertop, bookshelf, and stove. The retailer peddles appliances, bakeware, cookbooks, housewares, specialty foods, and other goodies for professional and home chefs from more than 100 stores in some 30 states, a website, and catalogs sure to make foodies drool. It also offers a gift registry. For customers who aren’t sure how to best use the Le Creuset casserole dish, Cuisinart food processor, or Henckels knives, it offers cooking classes and cookbook signing events in many of its stores. In 2011 Sur La Table (once jointly owned by the Behnke family and private investor Freeman Spogli & Co) was purchased by Bahrain-based Investcorp.

CURRENT

Even though current identity has handwriting style font with tagline just like french style, but it doesn’t have any specific point to relate kitchenware. Also, the tracking on tagline is not write. Thus, the identity needs more funny and relation for cooknware with french style just as brand name. The brand’s interesting point is that the compnay has historical background from 1970s. At that time, Julia Child who is famous american french cook. She was a kind of leader of french cook in U.S. The company was started around the period, and especially the company has started importing french cookware to U.S. Thus, these points became ideas and concept for brand evolution.
