Auckland, NEW ZEALAND, April 2026: PepsiCo New Zealand is shaking up the snack aisle with the arrival of two new products, tapping into Kiwis' appetite for convenience, quality and innovation.
The two new products include Bluebird Crackers and Mini Canisters – both bringing PepsiCo’s iconic brands into fun new formats that tap into different occasions.
Mini Canisters are available now, and Bluebird Crackers will hit shelves in May – featuring beloved local and iconic brands reimagined for modern snacking moments.
Mini Canisters ($4.99 RRP) bring three of New Zealand's most popular snacks into portable, grab-and-go formats featuring fun and differentiated mini sizes: Doritos Cheese Supreme, Grain Waves Sour Cream & Chives and Cheetos Cheese & Bacon. Perfect for snack moments on the move.
Bluebird Crackers ($3.79 RRP) deliver the beloved Bluebird flavour profile in a new oven-baked format. The four iconic flavours – Cheddar Cheese, Salt & Vinegar, Sour Cream & Chives and Crispy Chicken – serve up familiar taste on a crunchy biscuit.
Lee Kent, General Manager for NZ Foods at PepsiCo, said, "These launches reflect what Kiwi consumers are telling us. They want choice, they want convenience, and they want the brands they trust in formats that are exciting and new. We’re looking forward to growing the category with these new products and continuing to bring fresh, relevant innovation that meets consumer needs."
Both ranges are available from all major supermarkets nationwide.
