This case study describes Yoplait's challenge in revitalizing its core yoghurt product, Yoplait Košík, which had lost market share. Yoplait worked with Idealisti to design a three-month internal process to develop a new flagship product. Through workshops and discussions, the process led to a new fruit yoghurt called JO without additives. JO taps into consumer trends of preferring simple, wholesome, local products. The process helped Yoplait replace its core product and differentiate itself in the competitive market.
