Manchester Logos and Brands

The industrial capital of Northern England, a city of cotton mills, musical legends, and two football giants, stands at the center of the “Manchester” section. Manchester United and Manchester City, the University of Manchester, the airport, the Metrolink tram network, and cultural institutions form a vast pool. The bee, a symbol of Mancunians’ industriousness, has found its way into the city’s heraldry and the emblems of local organizations. The section covers the visual signs of brands for which Manchester, with its industrial heritage, Madchester scene, and the rivalry between the red and blue halves of the city, is home and a source of pride.
