The Challenge

Long History.
New Identity Needs.

For decades, NDCISA operated with a single primary partner: NDSU. But as the organization expanded its client base to include brands like SeCan and Anheuser-Busch, the need for a distant, standalone identity became clear. Their branding closely mirrored NDSU's, causing confusion among growers and partners. NDCISA needed to clearly differentiate who they were, what they represented, and why their seal signified unmatched quality and trust in seed production.
