Consul Group announced the relaunch of its brand and presented its new website to the market in November 2018. The reason was the company's rapid growth, and the expansion of its staff and of the range of services it provides. The brand concept is based on values such as confidence, advance and solidity, expressed as angles and straight lines. The central graphic element of the new identity is an emblem in the form of a stylised shield. A judge's gavel can be made out inside it, and the edges of the emblem themselves contain both initial letters of the company's name, "C" and "G".
