Pringles Secures its Market Share With New Flavours -- GENEVA, March 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- GENEVA, March 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Pringles®, the Kellogg's - owned snack, is seeking to burst open the savoury snacks category even further, with the introduction of new flavours, Roast Chicken and Herbs for the UK and France, Sweet Paprika for Germany, Cheddar Cheese across the Arabian Peninsula and an upgrade to national flavour favourite, Sour Cream & Onion. The new flavours, delivering a bolder flavour hit, come in response to identified consumer demand, and showcase Pringles® ability to deliver locally relevant flavour profiles, which are essential in continuing category growth.[i] The launch will be supported by a significant marketing campaign, covering highly targeted TV and digital platforms which communicates its "Bursting with Flavour" proposition. In addition to TV, the campaign includes the brand's first foray into interactive video, with a bold series of interactive films entitled Fan Versus Flavour. The videos, hosted on the Pringles® Facebook platform, will show one Pringles® fan go up against the new flavours in a series of daring and humorous head-to-head challenges. Fan Versus Flavour capitalises on the back of a highly successful Christmas campaign whereby Pringles® consolidated its leadership amongst an energised online community worldwide. Digital marketing marks an important step in Kellogg's ambitious growth strategy to expand its savoury snacks business and will further enhance the global footprint of the iconic potato snack brand, which tripled the size of Kellogg's Company's international snacks business in 2012.
