Nestle’s JOJO is the market leader in the dynamic Czech and Slovak sugar confectionery markets. So it was a thrill to be asked to work with their team to help renovate and re-set the brand to make it ‘fit for purpose’ for the next generation.
Sugar confectionery is a brilliantly challenging category. It’s all about fun and gratuitous enjoyment, but it has to operate in a world where big brands must operate ethically and be mindful of the long-term health risks associated with obesity.
We helped the JOJO team: rewind their existing data, plan and execute a highly successful segmentation, refine and perfect their brand equity model and super-charge their innovation pipeline with inspiring NPD ideas that match the needs of their target segments.
The brilliant news is that 7 concepts out of 15 concepts we helped craft and develop have just massively exceeded Kantar’s benchmarks. Not just the action-standards for Nestle, but the performance benchmarks for the whole product category!
All in less than 6 months!
If this case-history has inspired you, and you have similar challenges where our insight, ideation and concept co-creation skills might add value for you – we would love to hear from you
