nineteen years of expertise,made visible.

HCS Consultants has guided Singapore businesses through halal certification since 2004, assisting more than 1,000 F&B establishments. After nineteen years built on reputation and referrals, the firm wanted to be seen. We rebuilt the brand, then built its digital presence: a new website and an Instagram presence from the ground up.

the brief

HCS had the expertise and the track record. Its director helped establish the MUIS Halal Certification Strategic Unit, and the team has advised F&B, cosmetics and pharmaceutical companies. But that reputation lived offline.

Businesses now research their consultants online before they make a call. To be found and trusted there, HCS first needed a brand that looked as credible and current as the advice it gives.

the identity

The new mark pairs a dome silhouette with geometric, Arabic-inspired lettering, set within a deep olive tile. Beside it, a heavy serif HCS gives the firm the weight of an established practice, while the spaced capitals of CONSULTANTS keep it measured and professional.

  • Deep Olive#30361FGrounded and established. The base of the mark.
  • Lime#CBDB2AFresh and approachable. The accent that draws the eye.
  • White#FFFFFFClarity and space.

one clear promise

Halal certification can be a confusing process. The brand voice was built around a single promise that answers that directly, and it now runs across every touchpoint, from the website to Instagram.

“We make Halal matters simpler.”

the website

We designed and built a new website organised around the questions prospective clients actually ask, so every visitor finds a clear starting point, and a direct line to the team.

an instagram from scratch.

We established HCS’s Instagram presence and designed its graphics: explainers, step-by-step guides, client stories and brand posts that turn a technical subject into something easy to follow.
