Award-winning fresh soup and pasta sauce brand GLORIOUS!® has launched its new range of bold and adventurous flavours, which features innovative branding and packaging designed to shake up crowded supermarket shelves. With its new, gutsy range of soups and pasta sauces, GLORIOUS!® is offering consumers convenient, high-quality products without sacrificing flavour, at a time when soup sales are increasing. Market research conducted by Kantar Worldpanel about the national meal occasion in the UK, commissioned by GLORIOUS!®, revealed that the number of people eating soup as a meal has grown by nearly 5 percent since 2006, with fresh soup sales growing 16 percent in the last three years.
The survey showed that during an average two weeks, 44 percent of British people consume soup and would choose to eat it at least once every 5 days. The survey, conducted amongst 11,000 participants, also revealed that although sandwiches currently lead the way in simple meals consumption, consumers are still looking for healthy and more flavoursome pre-prepared alternatives, demonstrated by 65 percent of the soups being consumed at lunchtime.
Mandy Taylor, Commercial Director, GLORIOUS!® said: “With such a striking brand design combined with our new, bold flavours, the GLORIOUS!® range will stand out on supermarket shelves across the country. We believe that the new range will attract the younger, adventurous consumer and ultimately contribute positively to the retailers’ bottom line.”
The new soups include international flavours such as Sunny Thai Chicken, Goan Spiced Tomato & Lentil and Tuscan Chicken & Orzo, while the pasta sauces welcome flavours like Big Easy Chilli Cream Sauce and New York Alfredo sauce.
GLORIOUS!® has also launched a range of Skinny Soups with summery flavours such as Fragrant Thai Carrot & Lemongrass or Goan Spiced Tomato & Lentil. The new range contains less than 160 calories and less than 3 percent fat per serving. Each GLORIOUS!® Skinny Soup also provides one of the recommended daily servings of vegetables, and most are suitable for vegetarians.
