Irn-Bru launches shopper competition as part of £8m brand investment

As part of Irn-Bru’s £8m brand investment in 2025, it has launched a POS campaign that will give consumers the chance to win prizes.

Between 3 March and 29 April, shoppers can win one of four solid 18 carat gold girders worth £10,000.

There will also be thousands of other prizes on offer, including exclusive gold plated keyrings and charms and digital coupons for free cans and bottles of the drink.

Shoppers can enter by scanning the QR code on POS which will take them to the brand’s website where they can enter the product barcode and batchcode from their purchased pack. They’ll instantly be told whether they’re a winner or not and the prize fund will refresh every two weeks so that consumers are encouraged to try again.

A full and high impact POS kit will be available for retailers to maximise sales during this key limited period, where demand will be at its peak, said the brand.

Kenny Nicholson head of Irn-Bru Brand commented: “This is a one of a kind promotion from Irn-Bru with a one of a kind prize on offer. We will be reaching shoppers far and wide with a heavyweight campaign, including outdoor and digital advertising, experiential sampling and in-store marketing.

“We expect that demand for Irn-Bru will be absolutely sky high so we encourage retailers to get prepared with full range availability throughout the eight weeks, whilst also making use of our disruptive and cheeky PoS to drive their Irn-Bru sales.”
