As a strategic plan to move Melcom to a new level in the service industry, Ghana’s largest retail shopping centre, Melcom Plus has unveiled a new logo and other new packages three decades after its establishment.
This new identity, according to managers of the company, is purported to bring the world to Ghana via its varied range of products.
Ghana’s largest retail shopping centre, Melcom Plus, from a single store in 1989, has come a long way in its service-oriented investments in the favour of convenience and affordable shopping in Ghana.
With a current outreach of 55 retail stores across multiple formats and 12 cash and carry stores, 7 Pizza Hut and 4 Giordano stores, Melcom Group has announced its readiness to expand and extend its services for the convenience of Ghanaians.
In this regard, its rejuvenated identity was unveiled on Thursday September 22 at its shopping centre at North Industrial Area in Accra, with the introduction of a new brand logo.
Executive Director of Melcom Group of Companies, Sonya Sadwani, explained to the media what inspired the company’s decision to rebrand itself.
“The inspiration behind the new beginning is that now we have customers with bigger expectations and willingness to have a better shopping experience with international brands in Ghana. So we’ve started with our new logo. The logo is part of this whole relaunch that we’re having.”
