MISSION, TX (January 4, 2024) – Winter Sweetz, a Texas-based grapefruit brand owned by Lone Star Citrus BB #:205246, announces the launch of its 4th annual “Sweeter in Texas” sweepstakes to educate and celebrate the Texas red grapefruit season with consumers.
Now through January 26, Winter Sweetz is offering shoppers a chance to win one of two $500 gift card grand prizes along with a case of 20 Texas red grapefruit.
Through this promotion, Winter Sweetz will educate consumers on Texas red grapefruit season. Additionally, the brand aims to drive online sales and inspire increased consumption during peak production time with recipes, snacking ideas, storage tips and more.
“This year, we are experiencing smaller fruit sizing, however, we want to assure shoppers that this has no impact on the flavor,” said April Flowers, director of marketing at Winter Sweetz. “In addition to increasing awareness of seasonal Texas red grapefruit, we are informing shoppers that size doesn’t always matter when it comes to produce!”
To elevate Texas red grapefruit season alongside the sweepstakes, Winter Sweetz is utilizing a 360-degree marketing campaign that include trade advertising, public relations efforts, social media content, influencer participation, and email marketing direct to consumer to drive entries as well as increase brand awareness.
