SUMMARY
Twinings, a luxury tea brand, was fighting a losing battle against low-priced alternatives.
We had to do something. Rather than lower prices and compete with a much-loved market leader, we made a virtue of our premium pricing. Saudis spend more on luxury perfumes than anyone else in the world, using them daily. So, we re-imagined Twinings as a fragrance and sold tea like you’d expect Chanel to sell perfume. helped us reclaim tea-drinking as an everyday luxury, resulting in us outperforming category growth whilst simultaneously increasing awareness, consideration, and trial.
