CONMEBOL Sudamericana – A Century Later, Still Going Strong

As the South American Football Confederation, CONMEBOL has an impressive 100+ year history. CONMEBOL has grown to become the most prestigious and largest football association in South America. To do that, it had to have a strong brand, let by dedicated people.

While a strong brand evolved over its 100-year history, since 2016, CONMEBOL has undergone a series of structural reforms to modernise its governance and operations, increase the global competitiveness of its exclusive tournaments and strengthen its promotion of football development by increasing revenues and investment.

As part of that strategy, in the last two years, CONMEBOL club competitions have been greatly improved through a new format design and the adoption of standards, designed to increase the quality of the tournaments from competitive, sporting and commercial points of view.

Within these structural reforms, a new logo and a new corporate image were presented. The aim of the rebrand was to appeal to millennials and invite them to be part of the organization.

The brand’s new motto “Cree en grande”, Spanish for “Believe Big”, put the power of CONMEBOL into a few, short, succinct words.

People of South America live and breathe football. It’s an emotional connection.

The new logo with a shield and a fingerprint-stylized map of South America symbolizes the resilience, competitive spirit and uniqueness of the fans and their teams.

Following the rebrand, and with a strong push into international broadcasting, online marketing and social media networking, the organization succeeded in growing a younger fan-base.

Renato Cassinelli, Director of Communications & Public Relations at PayRetailers, says about the CONMEBOL brand: “The media impact generated by CONMEBOL is worldwide, but it’s not just about the immediate economic return, but also about adding value to the brand and imbuing it with attributes to take it into the future.”
