For retailers who are looking to maximise their beer sales and profits at Christmas, there is one name that is essential to have on shelf – Peroni Nastro Azzurro.
Last year, across all impulse stores, Peroni Nastro Azzurro was the number-one beer brand in the 12 weeks to 30th December, with sales growing +10.3%.[1]
With the share of premium beer extending during the festive period, with some estimates that it could exceed £2 in every £5 spent on the category this year, Peroni Nastro Azzurro is clearly a must-stock for all independent alcohol retailers.
Meanwhile, no & low beer has a pivotal role to play at Christmas and has continued its double-digit growth throughout 2024. Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% remains the fastest-selling impulse no- and low-alcohol beer brand[2] so similarly merits space on any retailer’s shelves.
The brand is coming off the back of a busy summer, with partnerships such as Royal Ascot and major music festivals driving engagement. In fact, Ascot 2024 marked record-breaking success for the brand, with exceptional performance for both the regular and the 0.0% variations of Peroni Nastro Azzurro across the events.
Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% is also continuing its season of support for the F1 Scuderia Ferrari HP team, by partnering with Charles Leclerc as its first-ever global ambassador. The multi-year partnership sees the Scuderia Ferrari HP driver and lifestyle icon driving engagement with the brand through his social channels. Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% is the global sponsor of Scuderia Ferrari, in a multi-year partnership that is cementing the brand in the hearts and minds of passionate F1 fans – a key group for the at-home TV sporting occasion.
Rob Hobart, Marketing Director at brand owner Asahi UK, said: “We believe Peroni Nastro Azzurro and Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% are well-placed to deliver again for retailers this festive period.
“We’ve spent 12 months since last Christmas, when the brand was already number one, [3] investing in the right marketing activations to elevate the brand even further this year.”
