Coca-Cola South Pacific has launched an iced tea brand which employs two unique bottle shapes and designs.

Named Fuze Tea, the brand aims to deliver an “aspirational ice tea” offering to consumers and position the tea as a premium alternative in the category.

It will be packaged in both 350ml and 1.25 litre bottles, made from a variety of teas including black, green and rooibos.

Fuze Tea is promoting ‘surprising fusions that are deliciously good’ in a bid to shake up the category and stand out against established brands such as Lipton Ice Tea.

The brand has partnered with popular program My Kitchen Rules, offering contestants a ‘welcome drink’ when they host their instant restaurants.

Fuze Tea will primarily target women in the 18-49 age bracket.

CCEP has completed a $39.7m manufacturing upgrade at its Kewdale facility in WA, installing a high-speed can production line that increases capacity by more than 40% and lifts production speeds to 1500 cans per minute.

Nearly 6 in 10 Aussies in food and beverage manufacturing believe their organisation is becoming less productive, despite continued investment in workplace technology, according to Argon & Co.

Every food, drink, personal care and household product made in Australia starts with an investment decision. A company chooses to replace a production line, automate a process or expand a plant. That choice is now made in a global market for capital, and Australia is struggling to compete. The question is simple. Will the next generation of manufacturing investment come here?
