Walkers Baked Wotsits Giants are making their debut in new recommended retail price (RRP) price-marked packs (PMPs) in the UK as a way to help shoppers more easily navigate store aisles during the cost-of-living crisis.
The products will include the Really Cheesy and Flamin' Hot Baked Wotsits Giants flavors, which will be priced at £1.25 per pack and labeled as such in the top-righthand corner. The release pushes the brand's RRP PMP product launches into the double digits for this year as part of its initiative to support independent retailers as they look to stay agile amongst cost and value-conscious shoppers.
Head of Wholesale at PepsiCo Mike Chapman commented on the latest Walkers Baked Wotsits Giants products saying, "Given the strength of RRP PMPs currently in delivering growth for retailers and the Savour Snacks Category, it just makes sense to make these in demand SKUs available in a RRP PMP sharing format. By stocking best-selling flavours like Wotsits Giants RRP PMPs, retailers can capitalise on existing shopper demand and drive snacking sales."
