Design agency Tweak has developed packaging designs for new product launches from Nerada Tea and AYAM, centred on Australian heritage for one range and Japanese-inspired branding for the other.

For Nerada Tea's new collectable Australian Animals Series, Tweak created packaging graphics that draw on Australian flavours and heritage, placing native flora and fauna at the centre of the design.

Each tea variety features a native Australian animal matched to its flavour and colour, set against layered gum tree silhouettes and dappled light. The packs are designed to appeal to both local consumers and tourists, with the range also intended for gift-giving.

For Ayam's new Japanese Sauces range, Tweak developed label graphics that combine Japanese-inspired design elements with the existing Ayam brand identity.

The range features a pattern with gold foiling, colour-coded variants for easier navigation and a combination of Japanese script and English typography. Usage instructions are incorporated into a gold band, while the neck label combines the Ayam brand with Japanese design cues.

Food & Drink Business

The Beverage Reconciliation Industry Network Group (RING) has seen major beverage companies join forces to help First Nations businesses build connections with corporate procurement teams during Indigenous Business Month. The partners include: Asahi Beverages, Australian Venue Co., Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, Coles Group, Diageo, Endeavour Group, LION and Suntory Oceania.

Coles has cut its first half earnings outlook for Supermarkets to flat, citing higher fuel-related supplier costs and heavier competitor promotions, even as own brand and online sales kept growing.

End Food Waste Australia (EFWA) is moving away from its Food Pact program to launch End Food Waste Australia Membership. EFWA says it provides a more flexible model for organisations of any size.
