Mumbai: Beverage giant Coca-Cola India has partnered with Adani Group subsidiary ‘Adani Digital Labs Private Limited’ to optimise the reach of its brands to consumers across the country. As part of this first-of-its-kind initiative, Coca-Cola India is working with Adani Digital Labs Private Limited to use the consumer-centric platform for product sampling and develop deep consumer insights and unparalleled ‘direct connect’ with the consumers. Coca-Cola is among the first brands to make its products available on this innovative platform.

As part of the partnership, select new products under Coca-Cola India’s portfolio, namely ‘Fanta Apple Delite’ and ‘Charged by Thums Up’ will be made available for sampling at some of the India’s top airports. The partnership, which kick-started at Lucknow Airport, involved free product sampling of the two products by Coca-Cola India for travellers passing through the city. The initiative aims at ramping up awareness about the product offerings and influencing 'consumers' purchase decisions. The partnership will further be scaled to other locations in the country in 2023.

Adani Digital Labs is the digital arm of Adani Group known for enabling user journeys and experiences to connect with the group’s vast consumer base. Adani sampling is a digital platform that allow brands to interact with large numbers of travellers and target customers with high spending and purchasing power. While providing a verified customer base, pilferage-free ecosystem, and re-targeting options.

The platform, which creates deep consumer – brand engagement, is currently live at India’s key seven airports (located in Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Lucknow, Guwahati, Mangalore, and Thiruvananthapuram) and Adani CNG Stations, will soon be available in many other categories of locations.

'Charged By Thums Up' and 'Fanta Apple Delite' are recent innovations from Coca-Cola India which are offering new drink experiences to consumers. While Thums Up Charged is an extension of the USD 1 billion Thums Up brand’s unique strong taste with even more thunder, 'Fanta Apple Delite' is a refreshing sparkling drink with real apple juice to rejuvenate consumers in mind, body and soul.

Coca-Cola vice president of customer and commercial leadership, India, Southwest Asia Operating Unit Greishma Singh said, “Digital and product innovation are both key growth levers for us at Coca-Cola India. We are always on the lookout for exciting new ways for consumers to try our new products and this partnership with Adani Digital Labs Private Limited provides a SaaS based sampling ecosystem.
