Changing the packaging was crucial to \u201cdifferentiating\u201d the product from those of our competitors and also bringing new life into the brand. The new Oval shaped tub that resulted is both iconic and unique to Sunshine D. The new look and feel has allowed us to refresh the brand and bring new energy to it,\u201d he explains.<\/p>\n<h4>Make It Taste Better with Sunshine D<\/h4>\n<p>According to Calthorpe, Willowton is ultra-sensitive to feedback from customers. As a part of our customer-centric approach to building brands, we embarked on a full brand review to ascertain opportunities to grow the Sunshine D brand even further. This included taste panel sessions which provided a key insight that there was an opportunity to reformulate in line with our \u201cMake it taste Better with Sunshine D\u201d brand proposition.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>With input from researchers and experts, the company decided it was time for a whole new recipe in order to ensure that both the taste and brand delivered on its true brand promise and continue to build on an ongoing success story.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-70540 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sunshine-D-Box-1x7.jpg\" alt=\"Sunshine D\" width=\"1000\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sunshine-D-Box-1x7.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sunshine-D-Box-1x7-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Sunshine-D-Box-1x7-940x658.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cSunshine D is a historical brand that has been around for many years.
