“Ice cream Assassin”, “Xuegao”… With the soaring price of ice cream, all kinds of homophonic stems are gradually played by people. Once upon a time, ice cream and ice cream, as summer heat elixirs, also began to make people “catch up with them”. Ridicule and jokes about high prices have even become the creative source of bloggers, winning a lot of praise. Under the unbearable ice cream, the people are “miserable”. Instead, those inconspicuous Wangwang broken ice, old popsicles and puddings curled up in the corner of the refrigerator turned into “messengers of justice”, trying to turn the tide and pull back a game for the industry with their own power.

In fact, the wave of “consumption upgrading” in recent years has unconsciously made those old popsicles with full childhood memories fade out of people’s sight. The extremely sweet taste, too bright colors and cheap texture have become the places where popsicles have been criticized. Today, when everyone pursues health quality, “old popsicles” seem to have been eliminated by iteration, but popsicles are not synonymous with unhealthy or cheap. In addition to being a household name in the Chinese market, fruit popsicles are also popular leisure drinks in Europe and the United States. Clean label attributes such as natural raw materials, low sugar and low fat, combined with the taste not inferior to ice cream, make it a decisive category in the ice product market. Today, the new Xiu brand dreyer’s outshine, with its own popsicle product outshine bar, is comparable to Haagen Dazs and has entered the ranks of the world’s top ice cream brands. What is its uniqueness? Among the dazzling brands, how can dreyer’s outshine capture the hearts of current consumers?

 

Only 8 years old, once backed by Nestle, its origin is not simple

 

Dreyer’s outshine is the first national frozen fruit stick series brand launched by Nestl é dreyer’s in 2014, and was sold throughout the United States in February of that year. Why Nestl é dreyer’s? There is also a short story.

 

Dreyer’s brand was founded by William Dreyer and candy manufacturer Joseph edy in Oakland, California, in 1928. The first factory was established in 1948 and listed on NASDAQ in 1981. Its products are sold under the name of dreyer’s in the western United States and Texas, and edy’s in the rest of the United States. After nearly a hundred years of development, dreyer’s and edy’s have become the highest selling packaged ice cream brands in the United States.

As an internationally renowned ice cream brand, dreyer’s has not only a large factory in the United States, but also a production line in Asia. In Hong Kong, dreyer’s has always represented the high-end market. In June, 2002, Nestle took the opportunity to acquire 67% equity of dreyer’s, and then integrated the dreyer’s brand into the dairy production line of Nestle Hong Kong Limited. In January, 2006, Nestle wholly acquired dreyer’s, becoming the world’s largest ice cream producer with a market share of 17.5%. Internationally, dreyer’s brand extends to the Far East market, while edy’s brand extends to the Caribbean and South America, further consolidating the global layout of Nestle frozen desserts.

 

In 2013, dreyer’s parent brand was renamed dreyer’s outshine, and two new product lines were launched: coconaut waters ™ Bar, this is the first coconut based frozen fruit stick retail in the United States; And the limited edition seasonal products inspired by the farmers’ market. In addition, the renamed dreyer’s outshine also includes the most popular products of the original dreyer’s fruit bars. Kerry Hopkins, brand manager of outshine, said, “we want to add a unique flavor to the fruit sticks of the same name series, combining fruits and vegetables into delicious and complementary flavors. Through this move, we also explore a new delicious way to incorporate vegetables into our diet.”

However, as Nestle sold its U.S. ice cream business to the Swiss joint venture froneri at a valuation of $4billion in December 2019, dreyer’s, including outshine and drumstick, was divested together with edy’s and H ä agen Dazs, Nestle will continue to manage its remaining ice cream business in Canada, Latin America and Asia. Although these brands are no longer managed by Nestle, Nestle is still a major shareholder and has three members on froneri’s eight member board of directors.

 

In 2021, only two years after being sold by Nestle, dreyer’s ice cream business began to heat up significantly. According to the data disclosed by dreyer’s, in the 52 weeks to January 30, 2022, outshine’s sales in the United States were $480million, ranking third, significantly ahead of H ä agen Dazs, which was $305million and ranked sixth. Although American consumers have habitually bought large barrels of ice cream for decades, which is convenient to ladle out for dessert, with the development of prepackaged food to single serving and miniaturization, its convenience and sharing characteristics have become more and more popular, and the handheld ice cream market is gradually becoming hot. At the same time, dreyer’s has also increased the publicity of drumstick, outshine and other brands, positioning outshine, which takes fruit as the first raw material, as a “healthier choice”, and its cleaning label attribute is very close to young consumers. In addition, outshine’s strong product matrix is also an important driving force for its rapid performance growth.
