Innovating wine-based beverages for globally conscious consumers
Consumers are increasingly making conscious choices aligned with their well-being and personal values. Recognising this trend, a leading world-class wine brand came to TSI looking to develop an innovation pipeline targeted at these consumers across the globe. Ultimately, the brand wanted to increase their share in current wine occasions, as well as open routes to new potential market spaces and win new consumers. They engaged TSI to help them in that process.

Approach
In order to find opportunities and winning spaces, TSI reviewed existing market trends within each region. Ultimately, TSI collated the findings and relevant stimulus to share with all stakeholders. Using a Design Thinking approach, we began ideating product concepts with stakeholders in multiple regions, with consumer needs at heart.
Ideas were evaluated with stakeholders from various functions in a commercial viability workshop. We then fleshed out selected ideas and brought them to life with digital prototypes, before testing the concepts with consumers across both China and Korea.
