Marketing - Day Chocolate Company case study
Going for Gold
In September, The Day Chocolate Company repackaged & relaunched Divine heavenly milk chocolate with a heart
in a beautiful gold wrapper and a 100g bar size, priced at £0.99 GBP.
This marked the beginning of the roll-out of a Divine range of 100g block chocolate bars which started with the launch of Darkly Divine 100g (70% cocoa content) launched earlier in 2002.
Divine 100g now shines out in the confectionery aisle as the only delicious Fairtrade chocolate bar that directly benefits the farmers in Ghana, a country that is as famous for its gold as it is for its high quality cocoa.
It is available in 100g and 45g and the chocolate is the same smooth milk chocolate consumers have grown to love. Gold has always been associated with quality and Divine is made with the finest Ghanaian cocoa grown by Kuapa Kokoo farmers. Their slogan Pa pa paa which means the best of the best is what The Day Chocolate Company will continue to offer to UK consumers.
The Day Chocolate Company supported the re-launch with:
- 2-page feature in The Daily Mirror
