Crafting Engagement with Sprite's Joke App Success Story

About Client

A Legacy of Refreshment and Innovation

Sprite was introduced by the Coca-Cola Company more than 50 years ago, in 1961, as a direct response to the growing popularity of 7 Up, a lemon-lime flavored soda that had gained a significant market share. Over the decades, Sprite has evolved into the world’s leading lemon-lime flavored soda, known for its crisp, clean taste and vibrant branding. It has become a global icon, available in more than 190 countries. Today, Sprite holds the position of the third best-selling soft drink brand worldwide, trailing only behind Coca-Cola and Pepsi, reflecting its immense popularity and widespread consumer acceptance. The brand’s success is also attributed to its innovative marketing campaigns and strategic partnerships with sports and entertainment figures, which have helped maintain its relevance and appeal to younger audiences.
