Backed by a brand-new £3m campaign; ‘Have a YAZOO with yourself’
YAZOO, the UK’s number one flavoured milk brand1, has announced it has surpassed £100 million in retail sales value (RSV), cementing its position as a primary driver of growth within the milk drinks category.
This significant milestone has been driven by sizeable distribution gains, particularly within the convenience and discount channels, alongside a strategic focus on accessibility. The brand’s commitment to accessible formats and price points has established YAZOO as a gateway to the category, attracting new shoppers and resonating strongly with its core 18-to-24-year-old demographic.
Building on this momentum, YAZOO is launching a bold new creative campaign, ‘Have a YAZOO with yourself’, backed by a £3 million investment. Running across out-of-home, audio, and digital channels, the campaign uses humorous, relatable scenarios to engage young adults, encouraging them to find a moment of joy amidst everyday chaos.
“YAZOO has always been about bringing joy to consumers’ lives, commented Ali Heal, YAZOO Brand Manager at FrieslandCampina. “Being a young adult today can be very stressful, so we want YAZOO to provide fun and a moment to sip, reflect and reset.”
Looking ahead, YAZOO is poised to unlock the next wave of growth. Following a major insights project, the brand has developed a new category vision which has identified a potential £600m+ opportunity2. FrieslandCampina is actively sharing this vision with retail partners and preparing to launch an exciting NPD pipeline aligned with these identified growth drivers.
Heal adds: “We are incredibly proud of this milestone and grateful to all our supportive customers. We want our retail partners to feel they’re backing the right brand – one with the ambition, quality and ability to keep delivering for shoppers, while helping the wider category grow. We’re excited to build on this momentum together, with more to come soon.”
