Pringles brings back QR code design for limited edition Movember tubes

Pringles brings back QR code design for limited edition Movember tubes

Pringles is continuing to support leading men’s health charity Movember for a fifth consecutive year.

Following the success of last year’s ‘Scan My Mo to Help a Bro’ campaign, Mr P’s iconic moustache has once again been transformed into a QR code.


When scanned, the moustache will take people to Movember’s Conversations tool, where people can access resources and information to conduct meaningful discussions around mental health and wellbeing.

Pringles and Movember have teamed up each year since 2020, raising over £1 million in Europe till date, which has gone towards funding Movember’s vital mental health work, including the innovative Movember Conversations programme and Spot the Signs.

Earlier this month, Pringles and Movember also launched the Scan & Scran Café in London, a traditional British caff pop-up designed to help the nation have tricky conversations about mental health and wellbeing. The came as new research from Pringles shows that almost half of British men (47%) don’t know how to ask someone if they’re okay and 71% admit they could be better informed on how to talk to someone struggling with their mental health.

“Our collaboration with Movember aims to tackle the stigma surrounding mental health and wellbeing in a fun and accessible way,” Seanáin Mcguigan, Pringles brand manager for UK&I, said.

“So, we’re excited to see our limited-edition Movember tubes hitting shelves once again and giving shoppers access to these valuable resources and tools by scanning Mr P’s moustache. We were thrilled by the positive impact of last year’s campaign, which drove over 127,000 scans to the Movember Conversations tool, and hope to encourage even more scans this year.”

Anne-Cecile Berthier, country director UK and Europe at Movember, added: “Our partnership with Pringles is about finding ways to help us feel more connected. Speaking about mental health and checking in with your mates are some of the most important things we can do. Starting a conversation about mental health can be daunting, so together we are finding new ways to encourage opening up to lighten the load.”

The Movember tube design, which can be found on Salt & Vinegar and Texas BBQ 185g flavours, is available until mid-November.

Pernod Ricard UK ignites festive spirit with marketing push

As December rapidly approaches, Pernod Ricard UK is ramping up its festive marketing efforts, anticipating a resurgence in consumer confidence after a challenging year. The UK’s second-largest wine and spirits supplier is set to inspire consumers to choose Premium+ Spirits as the perfect gift or the ultimate addition to any home celebration. Throughout 2024, Premium+ Spirits have consistently outperformed Standard offerings, making this higher end of the sector a vital margin driver.

“Since last Christmas, consumer confidence has been on the rise and the outlook for the final month of 2024 is positive," said Chris Shead, Off-Trade Channel Director for Pernod Ricard UK. "Gifting and hosting remain two key trends and retailers should focus on increasing space in-store for Premium Spirits that act as the perfect gift or cocktail ingredient when wanting to show off in front of friends and family. Where possible, we encourage retailers to prioritise categories that have been capturing the hearts of consumers and this year, our big winners have been Altos Tequila, Kahlúa and Bumbu Rum, and we expect our Champagnes, G.H. Mumm and Perrier-Jouët, to be the toast of choice for festive parties this year.”
