The Cornish Company

  • Brand Identity

A delicious rebellion. The Cornish Company is the market leader in Cornish cream tea hampers founded in 2020 by two brothers born and buttered in the heart of Cornwall. Wanting to become a credible alternative to the big UK gifting & hamper players they aimed to up the ante with a new brand identity and product range. The brand story needed to go beyond simple provenance.

Less picture-postcard Cornish nostalgia more contemporary Cornwall in all its glory. With a nod to the brothers cheekily rebellious spirit we introduced our seagull – the notorious seaside mischief maker – to represent their mission to smuggle their land’s finest produce to more mouths nationwide. A bold colour palette adds punch with a mischievous personality to match. Proper job!

Working with Buddy has been a brilliant experience from start to finish. This was a huge project for us, we weren’t just looking for a new visual identity, but a brand that could support the next stage of The Cornish Company and genuinely stand out in a crowded market.

The team at Buddy really understood what we were trying to achieve and weren’t afraid to challenge us along the way. They’ve helped us create something that feels distinctive, ownable and full of personality, while still staying true to where we’ve come from.

Seeing it finally come to life across the whole business
has been incredibly rewarding, and we’re really proud of what
we’ve created together.
