From their interweb:

Incidentally, Gilbert was chosen as the brand’s icon as the pelican is a proud and dignified creature, representing the role of ‘provider’. These sociable birds co-operate to catch fish and rear their young side-by-side in colonies.

They have served as a heraldic symbol of generosity for centuries and have a royal past. Our Gilbert is a friendly, contemporary reinterpretation.


Strikes me there isn't really anything very "proud & dignified" about scaring old folk into parting with their hard earned.
