Top pops is a Quality snack, but due to less awareness the snacks TG limits to millennials (People
born between 1980’s to 90’s)
Production and distribution is only in Lahore
Product is not available in street shops or supermarkets. Product only available online
Packaging needs a redesign as the products packaging is not attractive enough to gain a larger TG.
The typographic logo of top pops has a neon effect, associated with modern and night time life which
can have a positive impact on brands image if executed properly.
The current logo limits the brand logo to be used effectively on different platforms & applications,
Intense and glowing logo can be difficult to adapt on various production material or digital platforms
And neon logo limits the use of adding fun and exciting colors on the packaging, when introducing
new flavors
