Cell C<\/a> is currently revamping its flagship stores \u201cto make them more customer-centric\u201d, which includes a more prominent presense of the colour blue in the company\u2019s store revamps and advertising.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not rebranding but merely revamping our flagship stores to make them more customer-centric. We are changing the layout to ensure we are able to better serve our customers,\u201d explained Cell C spokesperson, Karin Fourie<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cPart of the revamp includes making the blue in our colour bar more prominent to give our stores (and ads) a fresh new look,\u201d said Fourie.<\/p>\n

The strong presense of blue is visible throughout Cell C\u2019s branding, with a lot of green also starting to appear in the company\u2019s advertising.<\/p>\n

There is strong speculation that Telkom<\/a> and Cell C are currently discussing a potential merger between the two companies, but it is understood that the more prominent blue branding from Cell C has nothing to do with a potential deal with Telkom.<\/p>\n
