“This is the biggest ever initiative of its kind in New Covent Garden’s 24-year history,” marketing director Nigel Parrott said.
“The combination of true innovation, best ever product quality, clearer choice for consumers and new recipes will enable us to deliver best in class quality for the chilled soup category.”
New Covent Garden is introducing its “clearest-ever range segmentation” for its expanded range. Its soups will be positioned in one of five soup segments – core range classics, seasonal, soups of the world, big & bold and 99 calories.
Daniels is also launching a TV campaign to push the brand. The company said New Covent Garden accounts for 40% of the UK’s fresh soup category but Parrott said the majority of households do not buy chilled soup. The changes should encourage more people to try fresh soup, he added.
