The FMCG Marketing Daily — August 26, 2026
In this episode:
• Heineken's US CMO reveals how the brand is actively repositioning around the consumer behaviour shift from digital socialising to real-world connection — without abandoning its core positioning.
• BrewDog's controversial co-founder is back with a non-alcoholic challenger brand, signalling that the no-and-low category is now attracting serious founder-led brand investment — not just line extensions from incumbents.
• Pizza Hut is dropping the word 'pizza' from its brand name in a bold repositioning move — launching simultaneously with a quarterback-led NFL campaign that signals ambitions well beyond its founding category.
