VALENCIA, CA - While the weather may be getting colder, football season is definitely heating up with consumers looking to convenient snacking solutions to satisfy fans and young players alike. Sunkist is now offering a way to take advantage of both winter trends offering tailgating-themed Navel orange cartons that meet consumer needs, while also offering retailers display opportunities to promote sports-related entertaining in the produce section.
“Families are looking for ways to snack healthier during the winter months, especially when packed with Vitamin C and other nutrients,” Joan Wickham, Manager of Advertising and Public Relations for Sunkist, explains. “Sunkist Navel oranges are excellent snacking options that taste great and boost immune systems during cold and flu season to help families stay strong during this busy time."
Sunkist’s tailgating carton is a 10-pound value carton, measuring 11 5/16” l x 9 1/4” w x 6 7/8” h (170 cartons/pallet), the company says, with availability for the packaging lasting all the way throughout the football season.
Joan added that displays can be another fantastic tool to build consumer excitement and demand, as well as offer educational information and usage ideas for citrus. Sunkist offers highly customizable displays, and if a retailer is interested in promoting tailgating or any other seasonal opportunity, Sunkist will be able to digitally print customized bins with less than one week lead time.
“Seedless, juicy and easy to peel, Navel oranges offer the perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavor,” Joan continues. “An excellent source of Vitamin C, Navel oranges are a convenient and healthy snack or perfect for seasonal recipes.”
