Peroni Nastro Azzurro
Creating an Italian Style Brand
Jewel in the crown of SABMiller’s beer portfolio, Peroni Nastro Azzurro is Italy’s number one premium lager and the fastest growing international beer brand. Over the past decade the brand has become an icon of Italian style – effortless, cool – and regularly seen on catwalks and in conversation with leading players of fashion, design, and gastronomy. Peroni’s brand story defies and redefines beer category norms.
OUR WORK TOGETHER - GSC has been a partner to Peroni Nastro Azzurro for over 10 years, and a part of its journey from relative unknown to one of the hottest brands on the market. Approaching the lager as a luxury item and premium brand, GSC helped shift the way that beer is perceived, and established a lifestyle association that made Peroni Nastro Azzurro a statement of intent rather than just a beverage.
