Gerrit Jordaan

I am a seasoned graphic designer with over 20 years of experience in creating impactful designs. My very first logo — the iconic tree on Ceres Fruit Juices — was used from 2005 to 2017 and seen by millions worldwide. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of designing for renowned brands such as Toyota, Olive Pride, Koekedoor, SCP, and many more. I’m passionate about crafting visuals that tell a story and resonate with audiences. Visit my website to learn more about my work and how I can bring your brand to life.
