Success: Trop50

Summary
Brand guardians can apply lessons derived from successes and failures in other categories and countries. Trop50 is a compelling example of how juice brands must proactively respond to rising awareness of the high calorie and sugar content of juices. Reducing caloric sweeteners without compromising on taste will remain a pronounced innovation theme across drink categories from carbonates to juices.

Key Highlights
Trop50 had already done well in the US, helping PepsiCo to negate escalating concerns that fresh juices are high in sugar and calories and should therefore be treated with added scrutiny and consumed in moderation. With UK consumers' preferences mirroring their US counterparts, Trop50 has since been successfully introduced into the UK.
