Another day, another new logo. Suncorp recently introduced a new logo on its websites, that will be rolled out across the company.
With the sun at its core, our new logo represents our history and marks our ambition to create a better today for all Australians.
You’ve seen it first on our websites, and soon in our stores. You can also expect to see the new logo appear on other communications from us in the coming weeks and months.
I guess that means it doesn’t just appear to be on the Corporate side of stuff, I saw this announced months ago, and am still skeptical about it. Odd choice of font and a odd gradient circle for the Sun. Wonder what most people will think.
The new Suncorp logo first appeared at Super Netball matches when the season started in February.
It looks fresh and less cluttered than the current one.
Same problem as the Foxtel logo. Boring. Says nothing. Choosing Ariel or a variety thereof for the font of the logo is uninspiring and plain.
BHP’s logo at the very least is growing on me. I’ve seen the new Suncorp logo pop up randomly over the last month and have hated it more each time.
I wonder if Nine News will report on this 
The cheap home brand bread at Coles and Woolworths is, I think, poor quality. It never feels fresh and it’s the smaller size loaf. I always pay more for bread that feels fresher and I get the larger loaf.
Is the cheap home brand bread at Coles really fresh?
Personally I’m not so sure about that since they got done for misleading advertising a couple of years ago for promoting that their bread is “baked today” and “baked in store” when it was actually partially baked off site, frozen and baked to completion in their stores. One of the products was even reportedly found to be baked in Ireland!
Makes sense considering Suncorp has just had a massive internal re-shuffle that involved a scale back of it’s business outside of QLD and the mass branch closures that followed as a result.
I thought that it looked like a solar eclipse.
Old logo is so much better.
Looking at it again just recently, it’s starting to grow on me a bit with the gradient being unified with the green banner which looks like it’s resembling the rising sun, and the pairing of colours and text in the applications aren’t too bad either. Suncorp’s new look and logo won’t bother me that much in my everyday living, as I bank with Bankwest in WA which is affiliated with Commonwealth Bank. 
Big risk for BIGW here. Guy Russo has 18 months on BIGW who are starting their fourth or fifth transformation right about now. Woolworths have screwed themselves big time with no option to fix it due to excessive lease liabilities, not to mention a massive distraction for the WOW group.
I think they are going to need to cut the store network dramatically, cutting 50 odd poor performing stores would benefit all three players but someone has to move, Guy was pretty upfront that there is not room for 3 players all in their current forms. Would be a cheaper option for Woolworths to avoid the large closing down bill.
Victoria’s last Safeway has apparently closed:
A couple of comments mention that there’s still Safeway stores elsewhere, but given the article quotes Woolies staff and managers, I’m not sure how accurate they are.
The store featured in the first image is in Northland, and it hardly looks like that anymore. 
One of my local Safeways became Woolworths recently. New signs but the store decor itself is still stuck in the 90s.
I mentioned before Safeway near my workplace (at North Blackburn Square) changed to Woolworths last year. Much of the store decor is still stuck in the 90s, although since the start of this year, six new self-serve checkout machines were installed to replace some manual checkouts.
My old local. Always been an odd bott. Happy to see things haven’t changed 
I’m sure ACA will have an “exclusive investigation” into “THE NEXT BIG SUPERMARKET WARS” and “HOW MUCH WILL YOU SAVE” 
New Coke No Sugar - Coke Zero is out
But to make room for Coke No Sugar, Coca-Cola will dump its popular Coke Zero product.
Initially, both Coke No Sugar and Coke Zero will be available on shelves but the plan is to eventually phase out the older product.
They keep chopping and changing everything lately. Coke Life branding was dropped in favour of Coke Stevia and now Coke Zero becomes Coke No Sugar. They don’t really give these things a chance to bed in properly and it makes them look really desperate.
That difference in packaging between Coke and Coke No Sugar is really subtle and leads to confusion in shops.
Should get rid of Diet Coke instead. That stuff is horrible
