The Irish squash market is growing by 17% in volume, driven by Britvic Ireland’s MiWadi and Robinsons brands.

The Squash category is recruiting more users and is a category for all seasons, as consumers move

into Squash throughout the year. Consumers are looking for cost effective ways to give their children the drinks they love and Miwadi & Robinsons are leading the way in doing that. MiWadi and Robinsons are the perfect, delicious and refreshing options for hydrating the whole family. MiWadi is a truly iconic Irish brand and continues to go from strength to strength in the marketplace, appealing to all age groups. From small beginnings in 1927, when it was filled by hand in Dublin’s Nassau Place and distributed by horse and cart, MiWadi has become one of Ireland’s best-loved brands and continues to be the largest squash brand in Ireland. It is still produced in Dublin to this day and around 16.5m litres of MiWadi are consumed every year. MiWadi is a key brand in the Love Irish Food Campaign and we know that buying Irish is important to Miwadi consumers. The LIF logo will be on all MiWadi packs in the coming months. MiWadi fruit squashes are all prepared from sun-ripened fruit and contain real fruit juice. They are sold in 1-litre and 2-litre bottles. MiWadi has been a fruity and flavoursome part of childhood in Ireland for over 90 years and has always remained relevant to Irish families, with a wide range of flavours in both regular and NAS formulations. No Added Sugar is the key driver of category growth in Squash, as consumers look to reduce the sugar intake for their children. Watch out for exciting innovation from MiWadi over the coming months. The Robinsons brand is the No. 2 brand in the Squash market and has the largest Squash range on the market, cultivated over a number of years, and prides itself on having something in the range for all the family, young and old.
