FMCG News
1. Yili Each Yitian launches new gold small bottle
Yili's Each Yitian family introduced a probiotic juice drink, the first of its kind in the beverage industry, which won attention for its bright packaging and innovative concept.
Recently, Each Yitian launched another new product: Each Yitian Gold Small Bottle. This product not only uses more eye-catching gold packaging but also features formula adjustments and functional upgrades.
It is understood that compared to previous Each Yitian products, this "Gold Small Bottle" uses a new Danish-imported strain, L.casei431. The key feature of this strain is its strong acid resistance, allowing it to remain active in the low pH environment of the human stomach, thus providing better digestive benefits than ordinary lactic acid bacteria drinks.
Additionally, consistent with Each Yitian's style, this Gold Small Bottle emphasizes the "live" concept, containing 50 billion active lactic acid bacteria for stronger digestive support.
2. Want Want launches over 40 new products at once
Recently, Want Want Happy Bulk held new annual distributor signing meetings across the country, releasing new marketing strategies and launching over 40 new products, including Lang Wei Xian Chestnut Rice Sticks, Kou Pao Sha, and Da Kou Shuang.
Lang Wei Xian Chestnut Rice Sticks were previously only available in gift packs, not regular sales, but due to positive market feedback, they are now sold separately with an upgraded formula. Kou Pao Sha is a tea-flavored lozenge that refreshes and quenches thirst, targeting long-distance drivers. Da Kou Shuang is a throat-soothing tea based on traditional Taiwanese recipes, aimed at those who often work overtime, stay up late, are prone to getting heaty, or are in sub-health conditions.
It is reported that Want Want Happy Bulk has seen steady growth for two consecutive years in 2016 and 2017, becoming one of the few major brands in the bulk snack industry to grow steadily.
The growth is attributed to: the combination of Want Want's golden brand and Happy's specialty products, with deep brand and quality recognition; Happy Bulk's foundation in specialty leisure snacks, with seasonal combinations like summer fruit ice and classic candies for festivals, ensuring year-round sales; consistent strategy execution, channel expansion, and focus on creating hit products to boost overall store sales, with quick strategy adjustments and product optimization.
3. McDonald's introduces more desserts to boost off-peak traffic
Recently, McDonald's launched new sundaes in the U.S.: Turtle Brownie Sundae, topped with caramel, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, chocolate, and walnuts, and Strawberry Shortcake, with vanilla ice cream topped with strawberry sauce, cake pieces, and cream. These appear to be upgraded versions of chocolate and strawberry sundaes, with higher calories: 630 and 400 calories respectively.
Additionally, U.S. McDonald's now offers muffins and croissants, while Canadian locations have muffins and cinnamon rolls. CEO Steve Easterbrook has said snacks and coffee are "unexplored opportunities," and it seems McDonald's is focusing on increasing foot traffic by developing these products to attract more customers.
4. Childhood White Rabbit candy now in coffee
Pacific Coffee has partnered with White Rabbit candy to launch three special drinks: White Rabbit Milk Qile Ice, Karma Suna White Rabbit Latte, and White Rabbit Coffee Qile Ice. Purchasing large cups or above may also earn a "Giant White Rabbit Candy."
These new products are part of Pacific Coffee's 25th anniversary celebration and are available until September 12. But when childhood nostalgia gets a makeover, will you still buy it?
Corporate Headlines
1. Golden Monkey, sold for 3.5 billion, may be bought back for 300-400 million, with future plans for nuts and salt!
It is revealed that Hershey is leading the buyback of Shanghai Golden Monkey Food, with the other party being Zhao Qisan's Shanghai Golden Monkey Group.
"Golden Monkey Group's offer is 300-400 million yuan, but Hershey is asking around 1 billion," a source said. "The buyback is certain; the main conflict is the price." Besides price, they need to coordinate distributor costs and placement. Due to management incompatibility, Shanghai Golden Monkey Food's factories are almost all closed, with over 130 offices and 2,400 distributors cut off. It is estimated that Hershey has lost nearly 10 billion yuan (including acquisition costs and liabilities) since the full acquisition at the end of 2015!
It is reported that Golden Monkey Group and Hershey meet almost weekly. When will it be finalized? At the group's exhibition in late July, the company received advance payments from distributors for products like Golden Monkey candies and Mylikes, promising delivery within three months, so the handover and agency cooperation may be completed soon.
After the return, the Golden Monkey brand will focus on the health industry, mainly candies, cocoa products, salt products, nuts, and health products. Currently, Golden Monkey Group has invested 200 million yuan in a new factory in Puyang, Henan, for nut production, including 17 products like premium cashews, pecans, pistachios, peanuts, almonds, and white raisins, with gross margins of 44%-57%.
2. McCormick acquires food business of Durex parent company
U.S. spice giant McCormick announced it will acquire the food business of Reckitt Benckiser, parent of Mead Johnson and Durex, for $4.2 billion. McCormick will gain French's mustard, Frank's RedHot sauce, and other condiment brands. CEO Lawrence Kurzius said this will make McCormick a "one-stop shop for condiments, spices, and seasonings." Additionally, the acquisition is expected to save McCormick $50 million by 2020 through synergies.
3. Walmart to use facial recognition to improve service, detecting unhappy customers
Walmart plans to use AI to improve customer satisfaction.
According to Business Insider, Walmart is developing facial recognition technology to enhance customer service. A patent describes cameras at checkout counters capturing facial expressions of queuing customers. If a customer appears unhappy, the system automatically flags and reports to managers for follow-up.
The goal is to detect attitude changes before customers complain, improving problem-solving efficiency.
And not complaining doesn't mean full satisfaction; Walmart needs to know what they think. Customer biometric data will be linked to transaction data, allowing Walmart to analyze purchasing habits and behavior.
"Retaining existing customers is easier than acquiring new ones through advertising," the patent states. "Typically, managers are unaware of poor service until many customers are lost. In a competitive market, a customer will simply shop elsewhere rather than spend time complaining."
