Imperial Tobacco is pleased to announce an exciting new update to its popular L&B Blue and Embassy Signature New Crush variants to enable retailers to respond to the continued demand for value tobacco products.

Available to buy now, the newly updated variants, L&B Blue New Crush Fusion and Embassy Signature New Crush Fusion, provide adult smokers with the opportunity to enjoy an instant cooling sensation thanks to its new and exclusive “Fusion” large bore filter. Nearly 20% larger than a standard-size bore filter, the “Fusion” large bore filter offers smokers a new smoking experience.

The New Crush Fusion range also features a white tip for the ultimate contemporary look and feel, a resealable foil to guarantee continuous freshness, as well as special tipping paper to provide the innovative cooling sensation. L&B Blue New Crush Fusion and Embassy Signature New Crush Fusion, which are available for an RRP of £12.50* and £12.25* respectively, provide the same great tobacco blend as the New Crush range, making it the ideal product for adult smokers who are seeking a new smoking experience at great value.

Tom Gully, Head of Consumer Marketing UK & Ireland at Imperial Tobacco comments, “We are excited to continue the expansion of our popular L&B Blue and Embassy Signature ranges through the launch of our new and innovative New Crush Fusion variant. With Kingsize cigarettes seeing impressive growth in both the economy and value-priced sectors, stocking our New Crush Fusion range will help retailers to tap into the continued demand for value tobacco and in turn, maximise sales.”

Red Bull introduces new zero calorie drink

Red Bull introduces new zero calorie drink

This winter, Red Bull is broadening its no sugar offer with the global launch of Red Bull Zero, delivering Zero sugar and Zero calories, with the popular flavour of Red Bull Original Energy Drink, the leading single serve soft drink in the market.

Health is now a key concern for shoppers, with 75 per cent considering health when they choose a soft drink [Appinio, July 2024], however, taste continues to be the number 1 driver of purchase [Kantar, July 2023] highlighting the need for a sufficient offering of great tasting no sugar and zero alternatives alongside full sugar soft drinks.

Red Bull Sugarfree caters to this need, providing a no sugar offering but with a distinct flavour that has built up a loyal shopper base. Red Bull Zero aims to fill a gap in the current line-up, for a liquid closer to the taste of Original Red Bull Energy Drink. It meets demand by delivering the same energy boost and taste, but without the sugar, targeting incremental category occasions.

With health such a key consideration for soft drink consumers, Red Bull said it is important to cater to this need within the Energy category. Offering more no sugar options is key to building incrementality for the category with more users, consuming energy drinks more often, and across more occasions. Red Bull has been key to driving this growth, with a portfolio that offers choice, growing shoppers and frequency of its no sugar products year on year and Red Bull Zero aims to drive this further.

The new can also compliments the Red Bull Energy Drink line-up, featuring the brands’ two most distinctive and recognisable assets – the core blue and silver rhombus design and the bull brand logo, along with a ‘New Taste’ flash.
