Q&A: Developing Fall-Inspired Private Label Items
With summer in the rearview mirror, fall flavors are once again front and center in retailers of all formats and sizes. Between large mass retailers and specialty stores, private label food & beverage launches featuring iconic fall flavors have already begun.
Retail giant Target recently rolled out more than 20 seasonal items, including items like Favorite Day Apple Cider Donuts, Good & Gather Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew and more. Specialty grocer The Fresh Market got a head start on its fall private label collection, releasing items like The Fresh Market Pumpkin Spice Coffee, The Fresh Market Gummy Pumpkins, The Fresh Market Pumpkin Spice and Spooky Drizzle Pretzels and more at the beginning of August.
Store Brands spoke with Tracy DeCarlo, director of Category Solutions at private brand consultancy Daymon, to discuss private label development, including trending flavors, standing out with unique products and more.
