Ozzo grocery store?
There is no more creative profession or industry than trade and product sales, so it is normal that in today’s digital world, people try to stand out from the competition with clever names and logos.
It is a case of commerce recorded in Montecillos, Texcoco, which surprised with its creative name Ozzo, which copies that of the Oxxo store.
The grocery store has a logo like the FEMSA brand, with a red background, white letters and yellow color.
What many may describe as a copy shop brand is a one-man venture that stands as a precedent for greats who have also gone viral for creative names.
As an example, “Groceries Kevin” is a company that went viral because it was in the office. Or also, on one occasion, grocery store “GualMart” caused a storm on social networks thanks to the inventiveness of its creator.
This shows that it is not only big brands, such as Walmart, Bodega Aurrerá, Soriana, Sam’s Club, etc., that can take advantage of the huge reach of platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and recently TikTok, but also small entrepreneurs, so even traditional grocery stores, with a good strategy, can create a great connection with customers.
And so, for this to happen, there must be a creative idea behind it that makes internet users look in your direction.
