Consumers thirst for more information is seeing beverage labels take on a bigger role than branding. Associations and manufacturers are implementing digital tools to keep consumers in the know.
America’s leading beverage companies, including The Coca-Cola Co., Keurig Dr Pepper and PepsiCo, announced the nationwide expansion of a shared digital ingredient transparency infrastructure, American Beverage explains.
As beverage-makers search for ways to engage with today’s consumers, connected packaging is seen as a way to communicate and encourage customer loyalty.
Whether for enhanced branding opportunities, to protect the authenticity of a brand or to prevent counterfeiting, smart labels are increasing in usage across the beverage market.
