Background of the Study
Brand repositioning involves changing the market’s perception of a brand to better align with evolving consumer needs and competitive landscapes. In Kano, a legacy brand with a long-established market presence has recently undertaken repositioning efforts to modernize its image and capture a larger share of the market. This study compares the brand’s performance before and after repositioning by analyzing changes in market share, consumer perception, and competitive positioning (Nwankwo, 2023). The repositioning strategy includes updates to the brand’s visual identity, messaging, and product offerings, aiming to appeal to a younger demographic while retaining its loyal customer base. The research investigates how these strategic changes influence brand equity and overall market performance. It also explores challenges such as customer resistance to change, misalignment between old and new brand images, and the risks of alienating long-term customers. By employing both quantitative market analysis and qualitative consumer interviews, the study aims to provide actionable recommendations for legacy brands seeking successful repositioning in a dynamic market environment (Nwankwo, 2024).
Statement of the Problem
Although brand repositioning is increasingly adopted by legacy brands, its direct impact on market share remains underexplored. The challenge for legacy brands in Kano is to revitalize their image without losing their core customer base. Factors such as inconsistent messaging, customer skepticism, and the risk of diluting brand heritage complicate repositioning efforts (Nwankwo, 2023). This study seeks to address these issues by comparing pre- and post-repositioning performance metrics and evaluating consumer perceptions. The goal is to determine whether the repositioning strategy has effectively increased market share and enhanced competitive positioning, providing actionable insights for brands facing similar challenges (Nwankwo, 2024).

To compare market share before and after repositioning.
To assess changes in consumer perception resulting from repositioning.
To recommend best practices for successful brand repositioning.
