Second, McDonald’s.

Who doesn’t know Mcdonald? I am sure all must know that this fast-food chicken restaurant is easy to find everywhere. The distinctive shape of the logo is very easy to remember. The fascinating story of McDonald’s success cannot be completed without the mention of its famous logo design. Those Golden Arches are one of the most popular things on the surface of Earth. The McDonald’s logo is symbolic of the arches that were the substance of the newly-constructed architecture of the first franchised restaurant in 1952. After Ray Kroc took over the business in 1961, he incorporated the two arches to form the new McDonald’s logo that looked like the letter “M”. This new logo remained the brand identity of the McDonald’s for more than fifty years.

 

Next, Nike.

It is a brand of most popular shoes in the world. The logo is very simple, making all who see it immediately can catch it and remember it. The Nike logo symbolizes ”Correct or Swoosh”. The hidden meaning behind the Nike logo is the wing in the air in the far-famed statue of the Greek Goddess of victory, Nike who largely influenced countless brave warriors. It is referred to as “Swoosh” , as a reference to the fibers used in Nike shoes.

 

Fourth, , Mercedes Benz

Mercedes-Benz is one of the famous luxury car manufacturers from Germany. Mercedez has existed in the automotive world since 1902. Currently Mercedes uses a star logo surrounded by circles. Apparently, this Mercedes has undergone several changes to the logo. The Mercedes triangle star logo has a special meaning, the dominance of the company which includes land, sea and air. While the Mercedes name comes from an Austrian business boy and automotive lover, Emil Jellinek, namely Mercedes.

 

 

 

Fifth, , Pepsi

Pepsi? The logo is very often found in stores that sell soft drinks. Before publication, Pepsi had paid over a millions dollars to create a new special logo with secret occult meanings. PepsiCo employed the help of the eccentric designer, and whom some call crazy, Peter Arnell of the Arnell Group for the job. The Pepsi logo contains circle with the top half is red, the bottom half is blue, and a wavy white line runs through the center. The red, white and blue colors have always represented the American flag. But there are more secrets in this logo then just shapes and colors of the flag.

 

Sixth, Chanel

Coco Chanel was one of the most significant fashion designers of all times. The corporate name Chanel became an icon of elegance and from then on, the Chanel logo became synonymous to elegance, wealth, and elitism as well as a standard for international fashion. The Chanel logo design was designed in 1925 by Coco Chanel herself and remained unchanged ever since. It turned out to be one of the most recognizable symbols in the fashion world with its overlapping double ‘C’ – one facing forward and the other facing backward.

 

Seventh, CocaCola.

Coca-Cola is the brand of brands. Coca-cola’s branding has been slowly built over time, with their dedication to their company associating themselves with happiness. The Coca Cola logo is recognized across the world and hasn’t undergone any change except for the variation ‘Coke’. If one looks closely at the ‘o’ in Cola and magnifies it, one would notice it resembles the Danish flag. But this is clearly an example of this happening by chance and not intention.

 

Eight, Starbuck.

Starbuck is one of the most famous coffee shops in the world. All parts of the world can already feel it. This logo has undergone 3 changes since 1987. This logo looks eye-catching.

Last, FedEx (Federal Express)

In 1994 the current logo of FedEx was created. If someone looks closely at the space between the E and the X a person will notice a small arrow hidden there. This arrow served to symbolize FedEx’s speed and accuracy. The FedEx logo manages to work on a number of levels. Its first logo sought, and succeeded, in capturing a lot of government work.
