Robinsons goes bigger than ever with The Hundred partnership to drive summer sales

Robinsons goes bigger than ever with The Hundred partnership to drive summer sales

Robinsons is kicking off its third year as The Hundred’s Official Soft Drinks Partner with a campaign set to see both shoppers and retailers score big this summer. Launching a new on-pack promotion, Point-Of-Sale (POS) free trial kits and an exclusive retailer competition, the brand is helping to drive sales ahead of and during the popular cricket tournament.

The Hundred was a huge success last year, with 580,000 tickets sold, which was a record figure for the tournament . This presents a significant opportunity for retailers to maximise soft drink sales around this year’s tournament with Robinsons’ 2024 campaign. New for this year and set to drive even more awareness among shoppers, the on-pack promotion is rolling out across both Robinsons’ Ready To Drink and core ranges. Over 100 lucky consumers will be in with the chance of winning a pair of tickets to The Hundred cricket competition, which will be released weekly via a QR code on-pack.

After a very successful on-pack promotion last year, which saw 18,242 entries, Robinsons will be further supporting retailers in leveraging this opportunity through providing disruptive free trial POS kits and social media assets – available through Britvic’s At Your Convenience platform. What’s more, five retailers will be in with the chance of winning a signed cricket bat and a free case of Robinsons Ready To Drink Raspberry and Apple 500ml when submitting a picture of their POS activated in store.

“Robinsons is proud to be in our third year as The Hundred’s Official Soft Drinks Partner, a collaboration that allows us to continue supporting retailers in increasing basket spend throughout the summer sporting months," said Ben Parker, Britvic’s GB Retail Commercial Director. "This summer is set to be huge for cricket and as the UK’s number-one squash brand, Robinsons is well placed to help retailers maximise the category, which is the 4th largest within convenience.

Robinsons Ready To Drink is currently worth £15.8m in the convenience channel , with on-the-go formats increasing in importance to the channel. As a result, our latest on-pack promotion is set to help convenience retailers tap into both of these missions during The Hundred Cricket tournament, with our At Your Convenience activity ensuring they can maximise this opportunity with disruptive activations, whilst being in with the chance to win some exciting prizes for themselves.”

Robinsons’ on pack promotion is running now until 13th August, with retailers able to order their free trial POS kit on atyourconvenience.com. For a chance to win an additional free case of Robinsons Raspberry and Apple 500ml Ready To Drink and a signed cricket bat, retailers must submit a photo of POS displayed in their outlet by 13 August to yourpos@britvic.com.

Gnaw ‘new-stalgia’: pud-themed Chocolate Spoons and flavoured choc bars

Gnaw ‘new-stalgia’: pud-themed Chocolate Spoons and flavoured choc bars

Tapping into “new-stalgia” (an anticipated hot food trend in 2025), Gnaw has been working tirelessly to rethink Great British puddings by creating a number of “Hug in a Mug” classics (Crème Brulée, Bakewell Tart, Sticky Toffee Pud) in conjunction with an impressive “pudfolio” of dessert-flavoured bars: New York Cheesecake, Christmas Pudding, Banoffee Pie and Sticky Toffee Pudding.

Desserts may prove divisive. For many the last course will always be a fitting finale to a great meal spent with friends of family, enticing comfort food that offers a nostalgic peek into happy custard drenched, ice cream topped memories from yesteryear. For others, desserts are an unwitting dalliance with guilt-filled soft sponges, buttery pastry, seductively sweet fillings, crumbly toppings, sticky sauces …
