Absa has launched its brand redesign, showing off a new logo and colour scheme as part of its shift from a European-owned financial group to a proudly African firm.<\/p>\n

As part of its presentation on Wednesday (11 July), Absa explained that the redesign would include hundreds of thousands of changes – with everything from clothing to pens now featuring the new logo.<\/p>\n

This redesign will also include a shake-up of existing bank branches and ATMs, with an Absa spokesperson confirming to BusinessTech\u00a0that its full network of more than 600 branches will be updated within the coming months.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Business Insider<\/a><\/strong>, Absa said that these\u00a0changes will take some 10 months to complete, with three branches and 15 ATMs scheduled to be rebranded per day.<\/p>\n

The below images taken from the launch presentation give an idea of the aesthetics of Absa’s new branches – with the group’s new colour scheme and logo featuring prominently.<\/p>\n

The presentation also gave an idea of what to expect from the bank’s newly-branded ATM machines, and the thousands of branded items that will feature Absa’s new logo.<\/p>\n
