Coca Cola : Fanta Gives Fans Permission to Do More of What They ‘Wanta’

"Wanta Fanta is a shoutout to a generation craving more balance and time out for themselves," said Ibrahim Khan, Global Vice President of Marketing Fanta at The Coca-Cola Company. "Walking through the supermarket, we realized the aisles were exploding with functionality. Most products focused only on the physical demands of Gen Z life. So instead of doing the same, we decided to speak to their spirit. Moments when they want drinks that are just delicious, with no strings attached. When they want to do things just for themselves, to feel good. That's what Wanta Fanta is about."

Fanta teams from around the world collaborated on the development of the creative to ensure cultural relevance and localize the work for their markets, languages and musical talent. However, the universal insight remains the same. Globally, Gen Z and younger millennials around the world feel the pressure to balance needs and wants-and desire for fun and enjoyment.

"We knew we wanted a concept that would travel well and show consumers around the world that Fanta sees and hears them," Camilla Zanaria, Senior Director, Global Shopper & Consumer Content, Sparkling Flavors. "From schoolwork and chores to deeper 'needs' such as fitting in or finding love, we want to nudge Gen Z from the steady stream of demands and commitments they face."

Wanta Fanta launches in the US in April, followed by China, Japan, Korea and all other markets over the next few months.
