Liquor marketing, in today’s alcohol industry, is a tasking job even for established brands. However, travel retail marketing is one of the most effective ways to promote and boost sales. Travel retail marketing refers to brands’ concepts and strategies to capture traveling customers looking for a vacation or a gift to bring home.
As one of the most renowned gin brands in the Uk, Silent Pool proves that it has everything it takes to blossom despite the increasingly competitive nature of the liquor market. In this blog, we’ve exposed the secrets of the brand’s travel retail liquor marketing.
Silent Pool’s Liquor Marketing in Duty-Free Store
British gin distiller Silent Pool is one of the world-renowned premium gin brands. The brand infuses rare botanicals and rich flavours to create a product that differentiates them from others.
When we visited the TFWA Asia Pacific Lounge, we were wowed by Silent Pool’s commitment to creativity and attention to little details in its branding and marketing of the gin product. The display ensured the product stood out, catching our attention and that of potential customers.
Additionally, we love how the brand leverages unique bottle packaging to highlight its product, creating a feeling of luxury and sophistication. We also love how the brand entices potential new customers to try the product by making them an irresistible offer with the Black Juniper pack containing a bottle of the gin and a branded drinking glass.
