ON joins Delhaize’s new wellness revolution in Belgium! We’re excited to share that Optimum Nutrition is now available in Delhaize stores across Belgium, marking a major milestone for the ON brand in the Benelux region. As part of Delhaize’s newly launched sport and health category, 21 ON products are now on shelves—including the world’s #1 protein powder Gold Standard Whey, Creatine Monohydrate, protein bars, RTDs, and more. This launch supports Delhaize’s mission to make better living accessible to everyone—and we’re proud to be part of it. According to market research, 1 in 2 Belgians already buy products in this category, and Delhaize is the #1 trusted retailer for functional foods and supplements. We’re thrilled to help meet this growing demand with high-quality, science-backed nutrition. A huge thank you to our teams and partners who made this possible!

Love this from the think! team. A great example of how brand, R&D and consumer insight come together to deliver joyful innovation. From nostalgic flavours to smart snacking formats, think! is showing how protein snacks can be both delicious and performance-driven. #LifeAtGPN
Building great brands means knowing when to lead, delight and innovate. Our protein packed snack brand think! is doing just that with its latest launches, snacks inspired by childhood-favourite bakes and desserts that don’t compromise on taste, protein or sugar. We’re pushing the expectations of what a protein snack can be, by focusing on joyful eating, not restrictive regimes. As Erica Morris, think! Brand Director, puts it: “favourite flavours done deliciously well.” At Glanbia, our R&D experts are delivering formats and flavour technology that enable think! to tap into consumer trends around nostalgia, anytime snacking, and the craving for something both familiar and exciting. We are combining consumer insight, R&D expertise, and flavour creativity, ensuring our brands can perform better. Find out more here https://ow.ly/A7wR50X04Lx

What drives consumer choices in nutrition? At Glanbia, we’ve developed Nutri-Needs—a powerful segmentation model that reveals what people truly value in nutritional products, from performance and lifestyle to aesthetics. Backed by award-winning research led by Rory McDonnell and our Insight & Analytics team, Nutri-Needs is helping us better understand and serve consumers across global markets.
What do consumers really want from nutritional products? At Glanbia, we took that question back to basics. Rory McDonnell, Vice President, Insight and Analytics tells us about Nutri-Needs, “We did a piece of research that looks closely at consumers’ nutritional needs and what they seek from nutritional products. The model we’ve built gives us greater consumer insights in our emerging and established markets.” Nutri-Needs is a new segmentation model that brings clarity to what people are really looking for, from performance to lifestyle to aesthetics. It's award-winning insight work from our team, who took home prizes from the Marketing Institute of Ireland AIM Awards in Dublin and the Marketing Society Research Excellence Awards this year.

That’s a Wrap: Lap of a Lifetime 2025 The Lap of a Lifetime 2025 promotion has officially concluded after running for 10 weeks. In its second year, the competition was scaled globally across US, Australia, Canada, India, Peru, Sweden, Germany, and Ireland. This year’s campaign was a major success, significantly exceeding key performance targets, and in the process becoming the biggest consumer activation in Optimum Nutrition's history, with a total of 121,753 entries made across all markets. The grand prize winner will receive an all-expenses-paid trip to Abu Dhabi this December for themselves and a guest, which also includes an unforgettable ‘Hot Lap’ of the Yas Marina Circuit in a McLaren car. Over 162 other McLaren/Optimum Nutrition branded prizes will also be awarded to winners globally. A huge well done to all team members involved in this project. We look forward to a bigger roll-out of Lap of a Lifetime in 2026! #LifeAtGPN #OptimumNutrition

Most Admired Brands in Digital Commerce - EUROPE EDITION Last night, at a pre-#Shoptalk dinner, I let our guests in on a little secret. Earlier this year I announced the the Most Admired Brands in Digital Commerce 2024, as voted for by participants in Digital Commerce Global's benchmarking. Last night, I took our guests through the Most Admired Brands in Europe - 2024. Resulting from the votes of all our European benchmark participants in 2024, the Top 20 list are: 1. Nestlé 2. Procter & Gamble 3. Unilever 4. Mars 5. The Coca-Cola Company 6. L'Oréal 7. Red Bull 8. Mondelēz International 9. PepsiCo 10. Diageo 10= The HEINEKEN Company 12. the LEGO Group 13. Danone 14. Huel 15. Hero Group 16. Lindt & Sprüngli 17. Oatly 18. Optimum Nutrition 19. Kraft Heinz 20. Ferrero 20= Affinity Petcare 20= Barilla Group These were voted for by the respondents to our benchmarks. No respondent was allowed to reference their own company, so this is 100% peer reviewed. Well done to the top 20. 183 brand manufacturers were referenced across all our benchmarks. This year you can also see how manufacturers have moved up and down the list over the last 12 months. If you want to know where your brand came then direct message me. #digitalcommerce #ecommerce #cpg #omnichannel #benchmarking
