The Challenge

Summer Citrus from South Africa is a unique collaboration of South African citrus growers that have been exporting their fruit to markets around the world since 1999. Looking to expand into the U.S. market, the company knew a brand overhaul was in order. Their team reached out to DMA for strategic direction and creative execution of a complete brand relaunch that positioned them as the preferred source for citrus grown during U.S. summer months.

We have laid a lot on the DMA team this past year, in a short period of time, and can’t say enough about the way our programming is evolving and growing, but in a very strategic projectable manner. Well done to the DMA Solutions team.
