M&M’S® has been bringing people around the world together for more than 80 years. This year, the iconic brand got a modern makeover, with a revamped purpose of creating a world where everyone feels they belong. Other changes include a fresh look and updated personalities for the famous M&M’S characters; a more inclusive and welcoming tone of voice; and a new, attention-grabbing typeface called All Together — a large, warm, playful, and conversational family.
A strong long-standing relationship led the M&M’S team and their agency, Jones Knowles Ritchie (JKR), to choose Monotype for the brand’s first custom typeface design. Monotype’s global language support was important, too. “Monotype is such a big brand, with the ability to develop type for lots of languages and markets. I felt more comfortable working with a partner that has that scale and international awareness,” Mars’ Global Director of Brand Identity and Design, Steffi Marty, said.
