Many consumers will be spending the summer catching up on missed social opportunities from previous years, so many brands are getting in on the action as seen with the new Co-op Summer Feastival range.
The lineup of food products from the UK-based brand target consumers planning to entertain friends and family from their home or even a local park. The collect includes a number of side salads, dips, barbecue foods, ice creams and even a number of new drinks.
Wholesale Category Lead Jonny Lambert spoke on the new Co-op Summer Feastival range saying, "With two-thirds of shoppers currently worried about rising costs, we are supporting Nisa partners to help shoppers be smarter with their spending with the Co-op own-brand range. Summer is always a good opportunity for convenience stores when good weather makes people more spontaneous, meaning they’re more likely to buy outside of weekly shops and while on the move."
