PEPSI BLUE
ABOUT PEPSI BLUE
Pepsi Blue is a berry-flavored soft drink produced
by PepsiCo.
Pepsi Blue was launched in mid-2002 and discontinued in
Canada and the United States in 2004.
Its flavor is the result of taste-testing over 100 flavors over
a 9-month period.
SWOT ANALYSIS OF PEPSI
BLUE
Strengths
It smells like pepsi and tastes like blueberry
Mild flavour
Weakness
Use of blue 1 (food color)
For many people color of the drink matters and color of
Pepsi Blue was somewhat similar to kerosene.
SWOT ANALYSIS
Oppurtunities
Press and media coverage.
If Pepsi had called the product Berry Blue, and
not included Pepsi in the title (e.g. 7UP, Mountain Dew,
Mug), it would have been far more successful.
Threats
Heavy competition from Coca-Cola, Kraft foods, Nestle, Dr
Peppers Snapple Group and Mondelez.
REASONS FOR FAILURE OF
PEPSI BLUE
Its blue colour
Use of blue 1 food dye.
Its marketing was poor.
Pepsi blue was launched in India just before the Cricket
world cup 2003 and although heavily promoted by PepsiCo,
it was widely seen as a commercial flop as sales remained
low.
Availability of the product was low.
SUGGESTIONS
By changing its colour.
By promoting the product with advertisements and mass
media.
Effective marketing team.
By changing the product name to berry blue .
