Offering limited-edition flavours in the soft drink category presents an opportunity for retailers to drive excitement and footfall. Flavour innovation is crucial in creating intrigue and exciting shoppers when they choose their next soft drink, especially for those impulse on-the-go moments.
By rotating limited-edition flavours on a regular basis, retailers can tempt shoppers and encourage impulsive purchases from customers eager to try the latest editions before they disappear from shelves. Tango has a strong record of new product development, particularly with its rotational flavour series, Tango Editions, with both Berry Peachy and Paradise Punch achieving the number one fruit flavoured carbonate new product development in their year of launch[1].
Recently, as part of new product development within the Tango portfolio, the brand launched Tango Mango which is already worth £2m RSV[2], showing the clear demand for limited-edition flavours.
