Before Gulfood, and after it.
Gulfood Manufacturing opens on 3 November. Printed material needs about two and a half weeks for design, approval and print, so the plan splits into what the stand needs now and what the website needs after the show.
3 Nov
Ready for the stand
- Stand graphicsBack wall and counter, built on the colour-and-number look of the concept.
- Product brochureAll six Decol ranges with identifiers, forms and packs. If print time runs short, a digital catalogue and one sheet per range instead.
- Roll-up banner and leafletFor the stand and for meetings away from it.
- Gulfood page on denimcolourchem.comStand R-D60, dates, a way to book a meeting, in English and Arabic. Every printed piece carries a QR code to it.
- The logo, redrawnThe same two crescents and colours, drawn cleanly so they print sharply at stand size and read on a phone.
After
