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.

A $27 million write-down of legacy inventory drove reported EBITDAS to negative $35 million, while net debt finished at $89 million against $90 million guidance.

SPC Global has delivered normalised EBITDA of $38.5 million for FY26, up 27 per cent and ahead of guidance for 25 per cent growth, on net sales revenue of $331.8 million.

Turnover and employment are at record levels in Australia’s food and grocery manufacturing sector and exports are also climbing, according to Australian Food and Grocery Council’s (AFGC) latest State of the Industry report. But the figures came with a warning – ongoing pressure on margins and operating costs could weaken the sector’s capacity to invest and grow over the long term.
