4 Whyalla has a story to tell Whyalla / Brand Guidelines / V1 4

5 Executive Summary Whyalla is South Australia s largest regional city, with a relaxed culturally diverse community. Whyalla offers a unique way of life while still providing all the services and offerings that are attractive to larger urban living. Whyalla boasts excellent industry opportunities including a close proximity to mining and oil and gas developments, transport, education, engineering, retail and small business to name a few. The objective of rebranding is to reposition Whyalla through the identification, definition and development of a new brand. A brand is built on a city s existing strengths; the elements that constitute the city, such as the visual, economic, psychological, and symbolic elements, as well as the aspects that differentiate the city from others. Embracing, adoption and use of the brand by Council and its many local stakeholders is a crucial factor in the success of rebranding. The newly developed brand will represent all facets of Whyalla including destination marketing, tourism, lifestyle, events, economic development, industry and urban planning. Whyalla must refresh its brand story to communicate to local and national audiences the city it is today, where it s going and why it matters. Whyalla / Brand Guidelines / V1 5
