Popchips gets a modern makeover by KP Snacks

KP Snacks has reduced the packaging across its Popchips range, resulting in 23 tonnes of material saved every year

KP Snacks has revealed a modern new pack design across its Popchips range, available from the end of October.

The new pack design will use vibrant colours and feature its core ingredients to offer brand standout and make it more relevant. The new packet will also incorporate Popchips’ tagline, ‘popped not fried’.

According to the supplier, the design aims to appeal to consumers from a design perspective, increasing the intent to purchase and, in turn, increasing spend for retailers.
