SmartCarton packages are good for kids and good for schools
We all know that well nourished kids have a solid foundation for learning. Milk and vitamin-rich juices play an important role in
helping to develop healthy minds as well as healthy bodies. And milk and juice served in SmartCarton packages are good for kids and good
for schools.
That's because the SmartCarton is a low-cost, efficient and earth-friendly packaging solution designed to fit
schools' and students' budgets. Which is not to say that school milk has to be dull — in fact, a recent test in the St. Louis area showed that schools that made very small changes to their milk program grew student milk consumption by 12-34%.
Changes included using fun, contemporary graphics, more flavor variety, in-school marketing such as posters and banners and milk
sampling. And the best part: those changes can pay for themselves through increased milk consumption, since they don't involve a
costly packaging change or other large financial risk for schools. Talk to your dairy processor about how to implement the
learnings from the St. Louis study in your school, and make milk more fun.
