Big changes are happening for Butterball, one of America’s most iconic brands. Given the scope – changes will be top to bottom, including product offerings, consumer-friendly labels with fewer ingredients, product packaging, and new consumer campaigns – this is the biggest refresh in the brand’s 60-plus-year history.
Butterball knows turkey consumers better than anyone and as consumers look to turkey to deliver a healthier lifestyle, Butterball constantly evolves to deliver upon that commitment. A recent national consumer survey indicated that among all U.S. consumers who purchase turkey, more than one-third agree that “all-natural” product benefits are important to them when considering turkey. The same study indicated two key influences in food purchases: 60 percent of consumers agree they “make food choices based on what's healthiest,” and 80 percent say they “make food choices based on what tastes best.” (2Source: IRI Butterball Custom Segmentation study 2017.
