Johnnie Walker is a brand of Scotch whisky now owned by Diageo that originated in the Scottish burgh of Kilmarnock in East Ayrshire. The brand was first established by grocer John Walker. It is the most widely distributed brand of blended Scotch whisky in the world, sold in almost every country, with annual sales of the equivalent of over 223.7 million 700 ml bottles in 2016 (156.6 million litres).
The Walkers created their primary marketing strategy in 1908 with advertisements featuring Brownes Striding Man, using the slogan, Johnnie Walker: Born 1820, still going strong. Photographs replaced the drawings in the 1930s, and the Striding Man was miniaturised to a coloured logo in 1939; it first appeared on the Johnnie Walker labels in 1960. In the late 1990s, the direction of the Striding Man was reversed as part of a Keep Walking campaign. The Striding Man icon was most recently redrawn in 2015.
Back around the turn of the century, when George Paterson and Alexander Walker launched Red Label and Black Label then called Special Old Highland Whisky and Extra Special Old Highland Whisky they wanted to convey the brands unique point of view visually. They held a competition for suitable artwork but nothing quite fit the bill. It was a cartoonist named Tom Browne who eventually came up with the logo. During a lunch with Lord Stevenson, one of Walkers directors, Browne turned over a menu card and drew the now famous Striding Man figure on the back.
