SUMMARY
Capri Sun had lost its cool with kids 6-12 and faced a price increase, so Kraft tasked marketing communications with improving the perceived value of the brand. Rooted in kids' desire to be daring, 'Respect The Pouch' came to life in TV, gaming & print, making Capri Sun more famous to kids than Nike. Profit increased far above 17.6%, thanks to penetration & buy rate gains. Ecstatic, the CEO credited Capri Sun as a big factor in Kraft Corporate's Q2 2009 11% profit increase and Wal-Mart took 5 additional SKUs.
