Abstract

We bridge ideas from brand myth-making and postcolonial theory to conceptualise ‘postcolonial branding’. Based on an analysis of the marketing communications of Subko—an Indian speciality coffee roaster, our findings show how brands may mobilise postcolonial discourses and symbols of utopian inclusivity to construct a successful brand (multi)universe.
