Context

Chicco is one of the most trusted baby brands in the world — Italian, sixty years old, present in 120 countries. In India, the brand sells through pharmacies, modern-trade retail, and e-commerce, where it competes against Philips Avent and a long tail of local players across feeding, nursery, and care.

The anti-colic bottle is a high-stakes purchase. Colic is one of the first health scares a new Indian parent faces, and the bottle that promises to solve it has to feel both medical-grade and maternal — clinical enough to trust, warm enough to bring home.

Challenge

Chicco's existing anti-colic bottles were a sub-set of the general feeding range, with no clear visual or verbal identity to help parents find them on shelf. In a category where parents are anxious, hurried, and often shopping in their second language, the bottle needed to announce itself — to say this is the one for colic before the parent had finished reading the label.

Opportunity

Build a sub-brand inside Chicco. Give the anti-colic line its own name, its own colour, and its own visual logic — distinct enough to be findable in seconds, integrated enough to feel like Chicco. A category-of-one within the parent brand.

Chicco Feed Easy packaging

A name that does two things at once. It names the product benefit — feeding becomes easy. And it reassures the parent — you don't have to figure this out. It sits on the bottle as a sub-brand, not a tagline, so the product becomes "Chicco Feed Easy," not "Chicco Anti-Colic Bottle (Feed Easy edition)."

Nomenclature Strategy

The naming exercise mapped functional names (BabyVent, ColicShield), emotional names (Calm, Soothe), and hybrid names that did both. Feed Easy won because it works across English-medium and Hindi-medium retail, it's pronounceable across regional accents, and it puts the parent's relief — not the product's mechanism — at the centre.

Brand Identity

A custom Feed Easy logotype that lives alongside the Chicco wordmark. Soft, rounded forms signal care without sliding into infantile design. The lockup follows Chicco's existing architecture so retail teams can apply it consistently across SKUs.

Pack Graphics

A new colour was introduced for the anti-colic category — a calming teal, distinct from Chicco's existing red and blue feeding ranges. The colour does the wayfinding: a parent walking the pharmacy aisle sees the teal first, then Feed Easy, then Chicco. Three layers of reassurance, in the order they're needed.
