Jan 2013 - Dec 2013
In early 2013, I was tasked to rebrand local organic fertiliser company Afmine, with the aim to increase footprint and revenues. The goal was to give the company a 'green' brand identity, as well as launch a range of consumer products in the home-owners industry. During that year (whilst studying for my Honours), I established a team and oversaw the inception and implementation of this project.
