In 2024, Naked, owned by the Tropicana Products Group, launched Naked Lower Sugar Smoothies, advertised as offering 50% lower sugar.

Trends and Insights
Awareness of the health risks of diet soft drink alternatives provides optimism for fruit juice’s future
- In July 2023, the World Health Organization classified the sweetener aspartame as “possibly carcinogenic to humans”. Aspartame is frequently used in one of the juice industry's largest competitors – diet soft drinks. As health-orientated consumers become even more focused on the functional benefits of the food and beverages they consume, this will become a point of consideration. The ingredients in diet soft drinks may push consumers to seek to enhance their consumption with the specific nutritional benefits juices can bring. This damages the health image of diet drinks with aspartame, which is likely to cause health-conscious consumers to substitute them, possibly buying fruit juice instead, boosting industry revenue.
