The name ALCIVIA says “all together” in a distinctive way, coming from the same root as common words for community like “civic” and “civility.”

In addition to the new name and supporting brand materials, the cooperative introduced a new logo with an upward-facing arrow shape to reaffirm their forward- thinking, positive culture.

“The brand development process involved extensive customer research, as well as close collaboration between the board of directors and a wide cross-section of employees over many months,” according to Jim Dell, CEO and president of ALCIVIA.

“Our mission, vision and values were foundational to the effort, which led to a distinctive, meaningful name that’s true to who we are and the value our customers can expect to get both now and in the future.”
