“We needed a rebrand that would hold up when we pitch national distribution contracts. Juicy delivered a brand identity that looks the part across our fleet, our Waterfall City offices, and our tender documents. The strategy work gave our board a framework they could align on before a single logo was designed. Exceptional process, exceptional result.”

What makes us different
Why Midrand businesses choose Juicy Designs for branding
Strategy-led, founder-run, and built for Gauteng’s fast-growing business node.
Strategy before aesthetics
Midrand’s corporate and logistics markets are littered with logos designed before anyone asked what the brand is meant to do. We start with competitive analysis, positioning, and audience mapping then design. Every creative decision has a strategic rationale, not just a taste rationale. This is the difference between a logo and a brand asset.
Corporate-ready process
We understand the approval layers inside Midrand corporates and corporate campus tenants: executive sign-off, legal review, compliance sign-off. Our deliverables are structured for boardroom presentations. Brand rationale documents, mock-up decks, and staged sign-off checkpoints mean your internal process runs smoothly. NDAs and confidentiality agreements are standard for every corporate engagement.
100% in-house. Always.
No freelance patchwork, no offshore design farms. Every identity is designed by our Pretoria team a short drive up the N1 from Midrand led directly by Wynand van der Westhuizen (Creative Director) and Cobus van der Westhuizen (CEO). You deal with the people who make your brand, not account managers in the middle. Founded 2015. In business because our work works.

Do you work with corporate and logistics companies?
Yes. Juicy Designs has worked with logistics and distribution operators, corporate campuses, conferencing and events businesses, and technology firms across the Midrand corridor on brand identity and corporate communications design. We understand the compliance, governance, and approval processes involved in branding work for established South African companies. NDAs and confidentiality agreements are standard for all corporate client engagements. Our deliverables are structured to support boardroom presentations and multi-stakeholder approval processes.
What is brand strategy vs logo design?
A logo is a visual mark. Brand strategy is the intellectual foundation that determines what your brand stands for, who it’s for, how it positions against Midrand competitors, and what it communicates in every context. Brand strategy includes market research, competitor analysis, target audience definition, brand positioning statement, messaging framework, and tone of voice guidelines. Without brand strategy, a logo is decoration. With brand strategy, a logo is a business asset that does real commercial work. Juicy Designs offers both separately and combined.
What files and formats will I receive?
You receive the complete master file package: Adobe Illustrator source files (.ai), print-ready EPS, scalable SVG, transparent PNG (multiple sizes), and PDF. Colour profiles include Pantone (PMS), CMYK for print, RGB for digital, and HEX for web. Brand guidelines are delivered as a print-ready PDF and, on request, as a web-based brand portal. You own all files outright with no licensing restrictions or ongoing fees. We retain no rights to your brand identity.
Client results
Real results from real Midrand clients
Here’s what Midrand businesses say about our branding work.
“We were a technology company out of Carlswald and looked like one. Juicy built us a brand that put us in the same visual league as the international platforms we were benchmarking against. Our pitch deck landed significantly better with the new brand. Worth every rand.”
“Our brand looked dated next to the venues we compete with around Gallagher Convention Centre. Juicy refreshed our full identity and built guidelines our whole events team can actually follow. Delegates notice the difference and so do our corporate clients. Professional and precise throughout.”
