加多宝从2008年到2026年礼盒的变化几乎代表了一个时代饮料企业卖礼盒的传统做法。前期是整箱+礼品袋尝试；次期再加入吉利话：提出过吉祥年 （后来的招财进宝）；而后突然的产品竞争，进入价格大战，开始把产品从24入装变成20入装；再到把产品包装变成了16入装。 那边，王老吉也秉持打不过就加入，终于也于2024年开始推16罐装产品。但无论是24罐装、20罐装还是16罐装，整体箱皮的大小、手提袋的大小都没 变，里面减少的内容物则被泡沫取代。 春节假期又创新高，但大家对饮料（包含牛奶）礼盒的消费预期却不高，似乎默认今年又是一个新低，就有一点突然开始各家比烂：你看这礼盒市 场，加多宝不好、王老吉不好、牛奶八宝粥都不好，我不好也是正常。 归结为一点就是，消费者淘汰了礼盒，我们再努力也没办法。着眼当下，我们十年如一日的产品策略是否有问题？难道说是企业卖错了？ 传统礼盒卖法 今年，加多宝的春节礼盒来了波大的，招财进宝里放了"金元宝"。 当然，在这波周转中，也会有50%左右的产品被消费掉了。这在我们传统做礼品消费的企业已习以为常。 前段时间，一个朋友去给胖东来供货，准备新上一批礼盒产品，以抓住春节消费。前期都很顺利，只是到最后 ...
