Our Story 2nd Release - June 2018
This was the beginning of a long lasting relationship between the Kuwaiti & Expatriate
communities and the late Abu Emile and his “Mess”. In a short time, the cafeteria became a
meeting place for all serving complete meals and offering take-away services, transforming the
humble canteen into a full-fledged restaurant.
In 1974, Emile Barakat, Edmond’s eldest son presided over the business from his late father.
Powered by his father’s vision to develop and expand the business, and under his leadership,
the restaurant moved to the old Kuwait television station, a large spacious property that was
transformed into a warm family eatery. It was in that same year in 1987 that the name of the
restaurant was changed from “Mess Alghanim” to “Mais Alghanim” and registered at the
Ministry of Commerce under the name of Yusuf Ahmed Alghanim & Sons Co.
Famous for the unique commitment to hospitality and delicious homemade style food, Mais
Alghanim continued to gain popularity and great acclaim as the years went by. With the
continued support of Kuwaiti & Expatriate communities, in 2003, the restaurant moved to its
present location, a building of true traditional Kuwaiti design, preserving the heritage and
genuine tradition of the brand. In 2010, with demand still growing, Mais Alghanim proudly
opened its second restaurant in Mahboula and expanded the “To Go” take-away and delivery
outlets throughout the State of Kuwait.

Our logo is made up of three elements:
The To Go services
The shining star of the logo is the symbol. It’s completely embodies the core
value of the identity, the idea that we are more than just a restaurant, more
than just 65 years of experience, It indicates to a wonderful age of our past
generation and the time of generosity and genuine hospitality.

The tagline is an integral part of the Mais logo. In other words: the logo is
never used without the tagline, The tagline is always aligned to the center of
the Mais logo.
the relation between these elements has been carefully considered to look just right, the
letters have been specially drawn and the color have been chosen to create a unique,
distinctive mark, so please don’t recreate or re type them.

Logo Variations 2nd Release - June 2018
Clear space
We respect the logo by giving it some space.
The minimum clear space that must surround the logo is equivalent to the height of
its letter M.
Minimum size
In print, the logo should never appear smaller than 0.78” (20 mm).
On-screen, it must appear at least 60 pixels wide. X
Registration marks
In marketing, registration marks on the logo are no longer necessary, except in
consumer packaging applications. X X
Since the mais to go mark is free floating on all backgrounds, it is important to choose complementary
colors on which to place the mais to go Mark.
In the past, the logo Mark has been enclosed in a circle. Today we are freeing the logo Mark and
allowing it to float free on top of photography and other colors.
mais was shaped by the around it, so it is only fair that we free our logo in order to live up to that
heritage. But when we do so we must be careful of the colors we place the Mark on, and make sure the
clear space surrounding the mais logo Mark is still applied.
Since the mais logo Mark lives in the upper left-hand quadrant of most uses, we must ensure that that
space has no noise and colours that allow the mark to pop.
IMPROPER USE
Don’t disproportionately scale the identity.
Don't place the logo over a crowded image that reduces the clarity of the brand.
Just like images, the choice of colours is a strong way to convey emotion. Colours
create atmosphere and influence moods. This makes them a powerful tool in
communication. For all our company communication, we have chosen a lively
but limited range of strong, warm colours that truly reflect the Mais personality.
Colours are a very important part of the Mais identity. Great care must be taken
in reproducing those in different printing modes and on different surfaces. 100%
match can not always be achieved but every effort should be made to reproduce

These colors or their equivalents should set the tone of any application which stages the
company or is a communication from the company.
Proper application of the primary corporate color palette helps to ensure a consistent and
credible communication of the company. Our corporate color palette consists of primery

Pantone black 6C, Brown Pantone 7533, Light Green Pantone 375 , Dark Green Pantone
