Cranberries’ rise to success as “the original superfruit” is well-known. Less well-understood is that cranberry sales actually declined for several years. That decline was turned around by a focus on innovative new product development and effective brand communications.


This 35 page case study shows how Ocean Spray - and other companies in the cranberry field - have already moved cranberry far beyond simple cranberry cocktail.

We look in detail at:


• The rationale for the launch of energy drinks based on cranberry as an “all-natural” energy drink for women.

• Brand extensions that have extended cranberries’ appeal to consumers looking for lower sugar and “pure juice” choices.


• Successful snack innovation with the fast-growing Craisins brand


• The growth of the cranberry ingredient business and its importance in extending cranberries to new users and new formats.


• The impact of the approval of a health claim in France


• Health-focused marketing communications


• Cranberries’ successful inroads into dietary supplements


This practical analysis includes examples of the brand’s communications and is illustrated with supermarket sales and ingredient sales data.


Packaging and distribution, marketing communications, brand positioning and NPD are used to illustrate how simple strategies have brought major success. They are set out in a way that is intended to enable anyone to see what lessons they can apply to their own beverage or snack business and what lessons should be applied by anyone with ambitions in superfruits.


As the only company in the world dedicated solely to analysing the global nutrition business our analysis will give you practical insights for creating success – and for reducing risks – that are second-to-none.


Insights don’t have to cost a fortune. Our expertise means that, unlike anyone else, we can keep them affordable at a price of just $150/€110.
