Abstract or Introduction
There is a necessity to improve already strong, well-known brand image giving the world taste of something new. In order to re-increase sales, MEXX needs to define a new branding strategy/ies, so the central question “How can MEXX rebrand itself to occupy a more distinctive position in the fashion market?” will be answered in this brand rejuvenation plan.
MEXX started locally in 1986 and now 25 years later operates in 66 countries over 4 continents, has 1100 own stores and 10’000 selling points (Mexx Marketing and Communication Plan, 2013). Mexx clothing embodies the essence of living the European lifestyles. Mexx is headquartered in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. European business has a direct retail offering combined with various wholesale channels and focuses on Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France and Russia (The Gores Group, 2011). There were launched two lines of clothing in 1980, "Moustache" for men, and "Emanuelle" for women, which merged in 1986 to Mexx. In 2001, most of the company was sold for several 100 million dollars to Liz Claiborne Inc. and afterwards the Gores Group.
