Frooti is a super popular mango-flavored drink from India. It's made with real mango pulp and natural flavors, making it taste fresh and juicy! This drink is the most successful product from a company called Parle Agro.
Frooti first came out in 1985. Back then, it was sold in special rectangular boxes called Tetra Pak. Now, you can also find it in plastic bottles, which are called PET bottles. Frooti is so popular that it's sold in many countries around the world, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and many more!
The Story of Frooti
Frooti was launched as a ready-to-drink mango juice in its famous green rectangular Tetra Pak boxes. Even though it wasn't the very first mango drink, it quickly became a favorite. By June 2020, Frooti had captured a big part of the market, showing how much people loved it!
Catchy Slogans and Ads
