Boldened Snack
Packaged snack brands are refreshing packaging portfolios to improve recognition
Trend - CPG snack brands are refreshing their packaging designs to draw more attention to their products while emphasizing standout features. These features include better-for-you ingredients and reduced environmental impact, with intent to capture younger audiences with such practices.

Insight - Younger consumers are becoming more environmentally conscious and health-focused in their purchasing decisions. There is a growing awareness of the impact of plastic waste and a desire to support brands that take active steps towards sustainability. Similarly, consumers are increasingly concerned about the ingredients in their food, seeking options free from artificial additives and high in nutritional value. Such pressures are leading to rebrand strategies to appeal to younger demographics.
Workshop Question - How might we innovate our brand's approach to packaging and product design to effectively resonate with environmentally conscious and health-focused younger consumers?
