Brand Guidelines

The MVCDS Logo - Basic Usage

The MVCDS Corporate Logo is comprised of three basic elements, the Corporate Symbol, the Primary Logotype, and the Secondary Logotype. The spatial relationship between the three elements must not change. At no time should an attempt be made to alter these elements in any way or to add anything to them. When resizing the logo, you must increase or decrease it in size as a unit.

NOTE: If you would like to use the Corporate Logo in print, it is essential that it be reproduced from the master digital artwork, available in Apple Macintosh and PC formats, from the Maumee Valley Marketing department at 419-381-1313 x114.

NOTE: If you would like to use the Corporate Symbol “M” alone, please contact the Maumee Valley Marketing department at 419-381-1313 x114 for proper usage.
