Catchword hosts German naming partner Werner Brandl

Share

Catchword had the pleasure and honor of hosting our good friend and German naming partner Werner Brandl last week. We spent four days sharing views on creative, linguistics, client service techniques, and global naming practices.

Plus we introduced Werner to a few of Oakland’s fabulous restaurants (as well as brand successes Chipotle and In & Out), hiked Mt. Diablo, and toured the brand wonderlands known as American supermarkets.

We’ve been very happy to count Werner a global naming partner for many years. Based in Munich, Werner has offered top-tier naming services since 2000. His work for international heavy hitters like Toyota, Audi, Wrigley, and Bosch Power Tools, includes the Toyota Aygo, a small car for young European drivers.

Hope you can come again soon, Werner!
