The Portuguese railway network renews its trust to the Portuguese subsidiary of CWL
« Caminhos de Ferros Portugueses » (CP), the Portuguese railway network, has just entrusted again to Servirail, the Portuguese subsidiary of Compagnie des Wagons-Lits (Accor Group), the catering service operating on board Alfa Pendular High Speed Trains.
A new identity for Compagnie des Wagons-Lits!
The new logo, which is an impacting, unifying, statutory « stamp » logo, incarnates CWL's new identity with its rounded shape - roundness expressing partnership in the idea of service, opening up to the future represented by the opening of the C and the typography with the L at a slant, to represent an armchair.
