Weetabix Melts has been awarded the title of Product of the Year 2022, within the cereal category. This prestigious award confirms the status of the soft-centred crunchy bites as a consumer favourite just one year after coming to market.

This indulgent yet nutritious cereal has built brand value of +£3.5m since launch, purchased by over 650k households and counting. Previous winners of Product of the Year have seen sales rise by as much as 135 per cent and with the tasty choice cereal category growing +11 per cent in the last two years, Weetabix Melts shows no sign of slowing down.

In line with the majority of the Weetabix Food Company portfolio, Weetabix Melts is HFSS-compliant, with no red traffic lights on front of pack.

A further £2m investment will support the brand over the next 12 months, including the return of the Weetabix Melts TV advert, as well as social media and influencer campaigns. In-store and online shopper activations will also ensure further awareness of the success at point of purchase.

“We know the cereal category thrives on innovation – pleasing both retailers and shoppers alike," said Head of Marketing, Gareth Turner. "Given its strong initial consumer testing results and subsequent repeat sales, we’re not surprised that Weetabix Melts has resonated with shoppers in the past 12 months, even in the competitive tasty cereal sector. Winning Product of the Year will certainly boost awareness of Weetabix Melts, in addition to our significant marketing investment.

RRP: 360g pack – £2.99 (available in 6 x 360g cases)

Jameson teams up with Admiral, for a tracksuit modelled by Kyle Jameson

Irish Whiskey brand Jameson has been the English Football League's (EFL) main spirits sponsor for two seasons and is deeply entrenched in all aspects of the league, including player sponsorships. It has now signed up with Admiral to celebrate both brands' association with the beautiful game. They have worked closely together to create a full retro-inspired tracksuit in Jameson’s signature green, featuring key elements from Admiral’s world-famous designs for team performance wear, to create a slouchy royal green trackie ready prepped for pubs, presents, party games and freezing cold five-a-sides this Christmas.

“Jameson shares a history rich with the beautiful game, so teaming up with an iconic heritage brand like Admiral felt like a natural fit, with the results speaking for themselves,” said Josh McCarthy, Brand Director for Pernod Ricard UK. “A classic tracksuit, from two classic brands, to look sharp after the match when buying your mates a round of Jameson, Ginger and Lime. Nostalgia is everywhere at the moment and growing up in Leicester, there was no shortage of Admiral tops in the park and at the local football clubs.”
