branders

Logo and identity makers

Branders are people or companies that create and manage brands—the identities, images, and associations attached to products, services, or organizations.

The term appears in marketing contexts: The branders positioned the product as eco-friendly.

Branders also refers to tools or devices used to burn marks onto surfaces, especially livestock: The ranch hands grabbed the branders from the fire.
