In the case of Mau Cheung Optical, its exquisite store on Nanjing Road effectively enhanced the brand's influence by introducing Shanghai Coffee, combining the low-frequency consumption of eyeglasses with the high-frequency consumption of coffee. Guanshengyuan Honey, on the other hand, changed its product strategy by transforming traditional pure honey into blended honey, which not only ensured the health and safety of the product, but also repositioned the brand's target group. And Great White Rabbit Milk Candy, as a widely known milk candy brand, successfully realized brand renewal and changed consumers' traditional perception of the brand through several brand co-branding activities. These cases fully demonstrate the path of revitalization of traditional brands through innovation, providing the industry with valuable practical experience and profound insights.
