History
Frooti was launched in a green rectangular Tetra Pak as a ready-to-serve mango drink. Frooti was not the first mango drink, but quickly won a large market share, with 25.6% of market share as of June 2020.[3]
The tagline "Mango Frooti, Fresh and Juicy", was created by the marketing duo of Arun Lahori and GM Menon, whose brief as the brand's communications agency was to "make mango Frooti synonymous with freshness and juiciness".[2] Other slogans used by the brand have included: "Fresh and juicy got to be Frooti", and "Juice Up your Life".
Frooti is offered in size variants: 1 litre (35impfloz; 34USfloz), 250mL (9impfloz; 8USfloz) and 200mL (7impfloz; 7USfloz) and 150mL 125mL (4impfloz; 4USfloz)Tetra Pak. A consumer study indicated that consumers wanted a recap bottle, which did not previously exist in the mango drink segment. In response, Parle Agro launched Frooti in a hygienic hot fill PET bottle.
