Unlocking the Unilock Brand

The Problem

Unilock’s management realized that increased competition from new manufacturers and from big-box retailers such as Home Depot was driving down the price and margin of the products in the industry. Unilock determined to use its exclusive associations with European manufacturers to bring unique, higher-margin products to the North American market.

The Fix

Through extensive research, we identified that the female homeowner most often drives the design, product choice and budget of home renovations, and wants unique, high-quality products for her home and is willing to pay more to secure them. We determined to reposition Unilock as “high fashion for the home” with an emphasis on the unique products and possibilities offered by Unilock.
