By GlobalDataThe launch is supported by “a refreshed logo” and new packaging that will be used for the exotic and red berries Solero flavours, which Unilever said would highlight the brand’s “fresh and natural fruit properties”.
Solero Exotic is now made with sustainably farmed fruits, Unilever added.
