This article examines how sustainable sugar brands build their image, using the information and imagery representations displayed on small packages offered to consumers. Representation of social and environmental awareness differs among the evaluated companies: União, Native and Guarani use different strategies to influence consumers’ behaviors, and only the first two base their image in stamps and certificates from institutions which evaluate sustainable practices of production.
