JD & CCZS new look

Coca-Cola Europacific Partners GB (CCEP) has revealed a refreshed packaging design for Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola Zero Sugar.

Designed to clearly differentiate it from the Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola Original Taste variant, the new look hopes to help retailers tap into the opportunity for zero sugar options.

Rolling out this month, cans of Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola Zero Sugar will now feature a bright red collar, which is replicated on the shelf-ready packaging trays with a bolder red stripe and ‘Zero Sugar’ callout. Displayed next to the Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola Original Taste variant, which is unchanged in primarily black packaging, it’s now far easier for shoppers to determine which is which at a glance, and to choose the product they want to enjoy.

Associate director of commercial development at Coca-Cola Europacific Partners GB Elaine Maher said: “Providing choice is a key part of our growth strategy, and with this packaging update, we’re making that choice much clearer to shoppers. Given that two-thirds of what we sell in GB from a soft drinks perspective is now low or no sugar, we know it makes sense to offer the same choice within our alcohol ready-to-drink portfolio. We are confident that Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola Zero Sugar represents a significant opportunity for growth, and is now even better placed to reach its full potential.”

ARTD director at The Coca-Cola Company Paul London added: “Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola was our first successful alcohol ready-to-drink last year, and we hope the recent addition of the red collar on Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola Zero Sugar cans will help consumers choose the right beverage for them at shelf. We’re pleased to see the Jack Daniel’s and Coca-Cola ARTD brand go from strength to strength as we move into its second year being on the market.”
