Horlicks Rebrands as Superfood-Focused Nutrition Brand
Horlicks, a popular malted drink from Hindustan Unilever, is getting a big makeover.
They're now focusing on superfoods and products with no added sugar.
This is because people are more health-conscious these days, and they want foods that help with things like protein, gut health, and weight loss.
Horlicks is using special technologies to make their products healthier and easier to digest.
They also have a lot of scientists working in India to make these new products.
Plus, they've lowered prices on some products because of changes in taxes.
Horlicks is rebranding as a health-focused brand with superfoods and zero-added-sugar options.
The new Horlicks uses Nutrimax technology for better nutrient absorption and Smart Sweetness technology for natural sweetness.
The rebranding aims to cater to wellness-conscious consumers focusing on protein, gut health, and weight loss.
Hindustan Unilever's lifestyle nutrition segment, including Horlicks and Boost, accounts for 30% of its food and beverage business.
The company has over 800 scientists in India dedicated to R&D for superfood-based products.
