A matter of taste

Article Abstract:

SoyaWorld launched So Good in Jan 1998 as the first fresh soya-milk with a taste that consumers found agreeable. The company packaged So Good in a gable carton and was sold right next to dairy milk in supermarkets across Canada. SoyaWorld combined national distribution with a C$2.5 million marketing strategy to build awareness and excitement for the brand. Moreover, So Good's public relations campaign used health professionals to make endorsements, resulting in maximum media exposure for the brand.
