C&F Financial taps the Power of Strategic Focus

RICHMOND, VA- September 27, 2004- BrandSync has managed the conversion of C&F Financial's retail banking business to a new brand, C&F Bank. With the assistance of BrandSync, C&F Bank has been established as the new brand for both Citizens & Farmers Bank and Citizens & Commerce Bank.

BrandSync's Brand Synchronization process on behalf of C&F Financial resulted in its decision to change the names of its two retail banking businesses to C&F Bank. The Brand Synchronization process encompassed identity discovery (internal and customer research), market opportunity analysis, competitive analysis, internal gap analysis, brand and graphic strategy, and communications planning.

The first phase of Brand Implementation has been completed with the recent roll out of C&F Financial's re-branding, including C&F Bank's new visual branding. This roll out phase involves customer communications and a unified brand identity. The new communications and visual brand identity defines, reflects and supports C&F Financial's unique brand position throughout its Virginia markets and across all of its companies and divisions.
