Established in 1971 in Los Angeles, CA, Cosmos Food Co. is now the largest Kimchi factory in the United States.

Creative & Brand-Authentic Packaging:

We know that branded packaging is undeniably the most crucial aspect of a PR package. Therefore to successfully appeal to the eyes of influencers and social media users, we decided on a youthful, colorful, and creative design, while keeping Cosmos’ authentic brand image.

The Process:

We first presented 5 prototypes with varying color schemes and designs; all reminiscent of Cosmos’ central brand image and their product, Kimchi. Debating the styles of minimalism vs. youthfulness, together with Cosmos, we concluded that a bright color scheme, combined with bubbly graphics would be the most enticing choice. In our final box design, you may notice the inclusion of Cosmos’ many kimchi varieties.

One critical priority of Cosmos Food Co. is to be inclusive to all palettes and diet types. Therefore we implemented this design element, to articulate the variation of Cosmos’ Kimchi types and spark the interest of future customers. Additionally, included at the front is Cosmos Kimchi’s bestseller: the Napa Cabbage Kimchi.

Interior: Insulation Bag Cosmos Food Co. Merch

Inside the “Cosmos Kimchi Box” is a Thermal Insulated Bag that will keep the contents inside, fresh for delivery. This bag also functions as promotional merchandise.

Simply put, a win-win.

Additive Element: Instructional Card

Included in the “Cosmos Box” is a “How-To-Handle-Kimchi-Jars” illustration card that informs recipients on how to take care of their gifted product.

This allows for a more personalized feel to each package, as it gives the illusion of a handwritten instructional note.
