Nippy's Journey and Growth
Overcoming Challenges
Even big companies can face challenges! In 1999, Nippy's had a problem when some oranges they bought were not good. But they worked through it and were later given A$3 million to help them recover. This showed their strength and how they bounced back.
Supporting Australian Farmers
Nippy's loves to support local farmers. In 2011, they started using only Australian-grown oranges in their products. This was a big step, showing their commitment to local produce.
Expanding Their Business
In 2016, Nippy's announced exciting plans to grow even more! They wanted to expand their operations in the Riverland region of South Australia. This expansion cost A$$967,000 and was made possible with a helpful grant of A$400,000 from the Australian government.
New Production Plant
To make even more delicious drinks, Nippy's built a brand new plant in 2017. This huge project cost A$10 million! The new plant helps them produce 500 ml (18 imp fl oz; 17 US fl oz) flavored milk bottles. This is in addition to their popular 375 ml (13.2 imp fl oz; 12.7 US fl oz) flavored milk boxes.
Health Ratings on Products
In 2021, Nippy's made a decision about health rating logos on their products. These logos help people understand how healthy a food or drink is. After a review, the health rating for their fruit juice changed from 5 stars to 2 stars. Because of this, Nippy's decided to remove these voluntary logos from their fruit juice range.
