With a fresh and authentic image, the beverage brand celebrates its connection with nature and health.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With 22 years of leadership in the iced tea market, Tropical, an iconic brand in the Costa Rican beverage sector, is refreshing its image to reflect its commitment to evolving the tastes and preferences of its consumers and introducing Pedro, the new and charismatic brand ambassador.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sloth makes its debut as Tropical’s ambassador, personifying freshness, optimism and character. This local bear highlights the essence of Tropical and strengthens its position in the market as a friendly and fresh brand, a symbol of joy and a vibrant lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tropical’s new visual identity highlights the benefits of its products, especially the low-calorie and sugar-free options, reinforcing and aligning the company’s commitment to the sustainability goals for 2027, specifically goal number 4: aiming for 10 grams of sugar or less in the FIFCO portfolio (following the parameters recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO).  Within its beverage portfolio, Tropical offers 8 different sugar-free flavors, in addition to Tropical Play<\/em>, which complies with the school cafeteria decree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt FIFCO, we think from each product\u2019s conception to add value to consumers, who are at the core of our strategy. With this vision, we developed the Sensitive Nutrients and Substances Policy, an internal guide that establishes high standards of quality and nutrition to design and produce more balanced and healthy beverages and food,\u201d said Maria P\u00eda Robles, Director of Corporate Relations<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cConsumers recognize us as a reliable, high-quality brand. True to the \u2018pura vida\u2019 essence Pedro reinforces the renewed image and connects us with new generations, reaffirming our commitment to those who have grown with the brand, maintaining our purpose of offering drinks with excellent flavor and quality that promote well-being,\u201d expressed Alexia Barragan, Tropical brand manager<\/em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are happy and proud to continue growing. Tropical was born in 2001 as a brand of fruit beverages that offered families a ‘homemade’ beverage. Since its creation in  2002, the iced black tea with peach and white tea with blueberry portfolio has been offering Costa Ricans innovative products, as pioneers in the category,\u201d added Barragan<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FIFCO, a benchmark for sustainability in the region<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

FIFCO works under a \u201cExpansive Sustainability\u201d philosophy, bringing together strategic allies with creative and comprehensive solutions to social and environmental challenges. This philosophy promotes interdisciplinary collaboration, systemic thinking and continuous learning, to generate positive changes, under its purpose: \u201cBring a better way of living to the world\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2008, the company has been operating under a triple-bottom-line strategy; it seeks to create economic, social and environmental value simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FIFCO’s strategy to 2027 incorporates environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals with an expansive vision of sustainability, including the use of recycled materials, post-consumer recovery and a carbon reduction agenda.
