My logo is in the process of being design at the moment, here’s hoping it lasts this long.

I have only just stumbled upon this post. I love to read history of logo re-designs and well done for getting the data together to write this. I too like the 1991 can but suspect it’s more to do with nostalgia than anything else!

The thing is that Pepsi is such a massive successful brand that whether they change their logo or not, they’ll still have huge sales.

Coca-Cola has to be one of the huge classics of logo design though. It is lovely that a logo designed in the early 1900′s still stands today.

Jackee,

Tropicana was a disaster wasn’t it. It only lasted a few weeks from memory before the branding was recalled?

What are Pepsi doing?!

Their first few logos look like blatant rip offs, then when they finally made something their own they can’t stop changing it, and now this horribly boring one.

Not to mention the rest of their brands. The Tropicana flop and changing Mountain Dew to “Mtn DEW”. What the hell?

Jmundstuk,

I too am not a fan of any of the Pepsi logos in particular, I do think the 1991 cans themselves though are hard to beat.

Never liked any of the Pepsi logos post the script — of my youth, btw. I always see reference to yin-yang symbol and/or the korean flag.

Ewan, thanks for your feedback.

Hesham, there’s an idea for some future posts, I’ll see if I can dig up some information on the development of some major brands.

I’m with you Andrew, 1991 was about perfect for Pepsi i think, the early ones tried to include too much information, the later ones are trying to be more like a three dimensional addition to a video game or movie, i think anyways…

Caitlin, that's an interesting thought regarding how long other brands have stayed with their current logo design. Sounds like an idea for my next blog post. Esti, thank you for your praise. If you're interested in having a logo designed you're welcome to submit your enquiry to me, I'd love to work with you on your project.
