Introduction

This case study on rebranding forms part of Datamonitor's case studies series, which explores business practices across a variety of disciplines and business sectors. It looks at while product rebrands are perceived to be a good way of invigorating a brand, they often end in failure, citing three examples, Vegemite's brand extension, Tropicana's new packaging and Cadbury's Dairy Milk megabranding.
