The City of Brandon has implemented a new, modern visual identity across the corporation. With its implementation, the new visual identity will become the primary City of Brandon logo and will take the place of the traditional City Coat of Arms, City Crest and any other logo image that has previously served as to identify the City of Brandon corporation.

 

Logo Imagery

The imagery represents a family of three people in an embrace. It also speaks to the diversity within our community. The linked “D” and “O” in the Brandon wordmark symbolizes the sense of belonging and connectedness fostered by our community. One of the hallmarks of a successful brand is consistency. Therefore, the City of Brandon insists that all those who apply its logo and supporting elements do so with a concerted effort to maintain its integrity.
