Labbrand and XCMG Win Silver Award for Best Localization of an International Brand at 2024 Transform Awards North America

Shanghai (October 2024) – Labbrand and XCMG Group proudly took home the silver award for “2024 Best Localization of an International Brand” at the prestigious Transform Awards North America, held in New York. Organized by Transform Magazine, a leading global publication focused on brand development and transformation, the awards recognize outstanding branding achievements worldwide.

Recognized as one of the most authoritative awards in the branding world, the Transform Awards have celebrated innovative, high-standard branding achievements across multiple regions, including North America, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East since 2009. The “Best Localization of an International Brand” category specifically acknowledges the excellence of global brands in adapting and implementing innovative localization strategies in the North American market. Therefore, winning the “Best Localization of an International Brand” award underscores XCMG’s strategic success in strengthening its global brand presence.

As XCMG’s long-term branding partner, Labbrand collaborated closely with the company to create and articulate its brand vision by focusing on four core dimensions: brand strategy, brand identity, brand communication, and corporate culture. Through comprehensive research and analysis of overseas target markets, we developed a brand positioning that perfectly aligns with local market demands. To further strengthen XCMG’s brand recognition, we also crafted a localized brand messaging matrix and customized communication strategies, creating the impactful global slogan “SOLID TO SUCCEED” along with an inspiring brand narrative. Furthermore, we designed a clearer and more unified corporate culture handbook, ensuring a consistent global brand identity for XCMG across all aspects of the company.

The recognition from the Transform Awards is a testament to Labbrand’s expertise in developing globalization strategies that are tailored for each market, grounded in thorough insights and smart branding. While the award specifically recognizes localization achievements in the North American market, it also underscores our expertise in enabling brands to build meaningful connections with diverse local audiences, fostering sustainable brand growth.

Zhujun Qi (Jane Qi), Group Director & Strategy Director of Labbrand and the project leader for XCMG’s brand globalization development, said, “We are very honored to receive the silver award for Best Localization of an International Brand on behalf of Labbrand as the project leader and strategy director. This award is a significant acknowledgment of our team’s hard work on XCMG’s brand globalization project and recognition of the strategic thinking and excellent execution we showcased throughout the localization process. As XCMG’s long-term partner, we have successfully created a brand strategy that resonates deeply with local customers on a global scale by exploring and analyzing XCMG’s brand vision and aligning it with the unique needs of target markets. By establishing clear brand positioning, an inspiring brand slogan, and tailored communication strategies, we have collectively driven the renewal and unification of XCMG’s brand identity globally. This award is a tribute to our entire team and would not have been possible without XCMG’s trust and support. Moving forward, I’ll continue to lead the team, upholding professional standards to help more brands achieve international success and foster the deep synergy between brands and culture, ensuring sustainable growth and development.”
