Cincinnati, OH (PRWEB) February 13, 2005

Marsh, Inc., a Cincinnati-based branding and design agency has created a fresh new look for NestFresh Cage Free Eggs, which will arrive on grocersÂ’ shelves this spring. The Denver, Colorado company, who markets healthy and humanely produced cage free eggs in the Southwest and Rocky Mountain area, is hoping to expand its distribution to other areas of the U. S. with the launch of the new identity.

In an effort to elevate the brand from growing competition in the cage free eggs category, Marsh, Inc. wanted to give the brand a strong image that consumers could easily identify with whether they were new or loyal shoppers of natural brands. Research showed that there was little differentiation in the category, and cage free eggs have become a commodity largely differentiated by price. Marsh saw an opportunity to fill this void by using NestFreshÂ’s owner and CEO, Cyd Szymanski, as the fresh face of NestFresh.

SzymanskiÂ’s unique story is that of a businesswoman, wife, mother, and long time advocate for animal welfare, sustainable agriculture, organic food awareness and other humanitarian causes. Szymanski grew up on an industrial egg farm and witnessed the horrific conditions hens were subjected to in caged facilities. In 1991 Szymanski, with help from her father and brother, started NestFresh Eggs, Inc., a cage free facility where the hens are free to roam about and are fed a vegetarian diet free of animal proteins, hormones, and antibiotics.

Marsh hopes that SzymanskiÂ’s story will resonate with consumers looking for healthier foods for their families, produced by environmentally responsible organizations.

The new NestFresh identity includes a new logo, tagline, package design, informational package insert, and website, all created by Marsh, Inc. The package supports the environmentally conscious product positioning by the use of subtle, natural colors and a panoramic mountain background to support the companyÂ’s Colorado heritage. They purposefully steered clear of traditional egg carton images such as chickens and barns to further differentiate NestFresh from its competitors.

The new tagline “Always 100% Cage Free” reiterates to consumers that all NestFresh’s eggs are cage free. Some producers use caged birds to supplement their cage free business and it was important for NestFresh to distinguish themselves from those producers. The informational insert, included in all packages, educates the consumers on the benefits of cage free eggs, to humans and chickens, and gives a glimpse of the owner’s unique story. The insert also directs consumers to the new NestFresh website, which launches in February. On the website, consumers can learn more about Szymanski, cage free eggs, the natural foods industry, and the charities supported by Szymanski and her company.

NestFresh Cage Free Eggs are available in Cage Free White, Cage Free Brown, Organic, Omega-3, and Fertile, and come in a variety of sizes.
