  • Suero Oral® Inc.

Suero Oral® is expanding  is expanding its market reach by adding new beverage concentrate packaging, designed by tricorBraun. Suero Oral®  is a functional beverage containing electrolytes that replenish the body’s fluids lost either through exertion or through fever or vomiting due to illness. It is based on a traditional Latin American home remedy used by generations of mothers to treat their children losing fluids due to illness, as its name, which translates as “oral serum.”Since 1999, Suero Oral Inc. has sold this product across the United States, targeting the Hispanic market through small bodegas and grocery stores.Suero Oral products are sold in all 50 states and are also exported throughout the Caribbean and to Asia.Now, the company is expanding its market reach by adding new beverage concentrate packaging, designed by tricorBraun.The smaller packaging would also offer Suero Oral the opportunity to place its products in locations that would not accept the larger bottles, such as on store countertops and in convenience stores that were ideal locations to reach these younger, on-the-go customers. It would also let workers carry the restorative supplement more easily and let younger users individualize the amount they dispensed to meet their personal taste and need, which would appeal to that group.From the concentrate bottle designs that TricorBraun had created, Suero Oral chose a fluid, subtly asymmetrical two-ounce squeeze bottle with a flip-top closure for its convenient size and dispensing functionality. Each bottle is decorated with a full body shrink sleeve label carrying an image that reflects the image on the larger bottle of the product.The new concentrate packages were shipped to distributors in early May for placement in Suero Oral’s retail outlets.
