UK cereal maker Jordans Cereals is to invest GBP6.5m (US$9.8m) in marketing support for its range throughout this year.

The activity, announced today (4 March), kicks off with a TV advertising campaign to support the firm’s redesigned Muesli and Crunchy Oats ranges.

The campaign focuses on the brand’s ingredients and features bird-spotter Bill Oddie. The ad features Jordans Fruit & Nut Muesli and Jordans Fruit & Nut Crunchy Oats.

In addition, Jordans has revamped the packaging for its entire portfolio to place a greater emphasis on the ingredients and the company’s credentials as “a pioneer of nature-friendly farming”, the firm said.

The design includes a bigger window on the front of the muesli packs, fruit photography and clearer wording.  

The company’s Tropical Muesli variant has also been re-named as Truly Fruity Muesli.
