SUMMARY
This case shows how a repositioning can re-vitalise a global brand in a challenging cultural and business context. Our data-driven strategy demonstrates how working against a perceptual objective triggered a broader equity reinforcement and eventually growth. By focusing on “sustainability”, the campaign made European coffee lovers see Nespresso as being more trustworthy and offering better quality, which initiated a volume growth increase. The case finally proves how fast a repositioning effort can take and drive results—the journey was initiated in January 2020 and generated outstanding results by December 2020.
