New Delhi: Bringing in a playful twist to the new year, Kurkure, one of India’s most loved snack brands, has expanded its brand with the launch of a youthful new sub-brand, Kurkure Playz. It comes with the widely popular and successful Kurkure Playz Puffcorn and all-new Kurkure Playz Pastax, based on the growing affinity of consumers towards light textured snacks.
The modern sub-brand caters to the rise in demand for soft textured snacks, one of the fastest growing variants in the overall salty snacks category.

The winning product propositions with irresistible flavours of Kurkure Playz Puffcorn and Kurkure Playz Pastax will help us create differentiation and build taste superiority in the category. In true Kurkure style, its light texture will encourage the consumer to take a lighter approach to life, no matter what the situation is.”
