Giving the Right
Brand Spin to a
Spin-Off




                           devinepowers.com
The Client
Sunoco Logistics

The Challenge
Fresh from a spin-off from its parent company, Sunoco
Logistics approached D+P for help in establishing a
separate, but related, identity for its work – as well as
assistance in developing a charitable-giving and community-
relations strategy for its top executives.

Our Strategy
We carved out a new identity for Sunoco Logistics by using
media relations to focus on the organic and new growth of
its pipeline network and quarterly distribution payments. At
the community level, we helped the company establish deep
roots through charitable contributions, sponsorships and
board placements for executives.

Our Results

 Philadelphia Business Journal touting the growth of the
 company’s pipelines and terminal network, as well as its
 earnings reports and acquisitions plans.




Results Plus
As a result of our contributions, Sunoco Logistics’ CEO
won the “Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce
2008 Paradigm Award” and was named one of the “Best
50 Women in Business” by the Pennsylvania Department of
Community and Economic Development.
