The document summarizes the transformation of a brand from 2011 to 2015. In 2011, the brand had low sales and distribution, a poor reputation for quality and delivery, and declining brand awareness among older customers. By 2015, through strategic initiatives, the brand improved its message and values, expanded its product line and channels, and built a reputation for quality, on-time delivery, and premium distribution, increasing brand awareness among younger customers. Key achievements included developing an online presence, opening flagship stores, expanding distribution networks, and building a formal, coordinated product collection. The transformation positioned the brand for continued growth.
