AG Barr Announces New Localised Charitable Giving Model

03/06/26

At AG Barr, we believe in empowering our people to make a positive difference in the world and growing our business in a way that reflects their values.

In recent years, our corporate social responsibility efforts have been focused on a single national charity partner. However, listening to feedback from colleagues across the business, we recognised a strong desire to create a more direct, meaningful impact in the areas where we live and work.

As a result, we are proud to announce a transition to a new, localised charitable giving model.

Connecting Directly with Our Communities

Under this new approach, each of our four regional hubs has selected its own dedicated charity partner. These organisations speak directly to the needs of their respective local communities, allowing our teams to engage in more proactive, on-the-ground fundraising and volunteering.

We are delighted to introduce our new local charity partners across the UK:

  • Cumbernauld: Supporting CHAS (Children’s Hospices Across Scotland) who provide unwavering care to children who may die young.

  • Milton Keynes: Partnering with Willen Hospice, who provide free expert care and support to improve the lives of local people coping with the impact of a life-limiting illness.

  • Middlebrook: Supporting Derian House, a leader in palliative care for children and young people across the North West.

  • London: Partnering with the world-renowned Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Charity) to help give seriously ill children the best chance and childhood possible.

Looking Ahead

We are incredibly proud of our colleagues for choosing such vital, life-changing causes. Our teams are eager to provide hands-on support, and we cannot wait to see the energy, dedication, and passion they bring to these new partnerships.

We look forward to sharing updates on the fantastic work happening across our sites as our people continue to drive positive change within their local communities.

IRN-BRU Energy Returns to Shelves Bull 2 Bear 0 Product/operations

IRN-BRU Energy returns to helves to shake up the energy drinks market

27/03/26

IRN-BRU Energy is back on shelves, giving retailers a bold new way to tap into one of retail’s fastest-growing categories.

Launching in 500ml big cans, the range will be available in Original and Zero Sugar variants, combining the iconic flavour of IRN-BRU’s top secret essence with taurine, caffeine and B vitamins to deliver the taste and boost consumers expect from an energy drink.

The return comes at a time of significant momentum in the category. Sports and Energy drinks are now worth £3.1bn and growing at +11.1%, accounting for 41% of drink-now soft drinks sales, making them one of the most important profit drivers in store. At the same
time, innovation continues to fuel the sector, with 62% of all category growth in 2025 coming from new products, flavours and pack formats.

IRN-BRU Energy is designed to help retailers capitalise on these trends, particularly in Scotland, where the brand has a powerful heritage and loyal consumer base. The launch offers a clear proposition for shoppers who love the distinctive taste of IRN-BRU but want the functionality of an energy drink.

Kenny Nicholson, IRN-BRU Brand Director at AG Barr, said: “Energy drinks remain one of the most dynamic parts of the soft drinks category, and retailers know just how important it is to get the range right.

“We’re bringing back IRN-BRU Energy to deliver the iconic flavour people love into the energy category, giving shoppers something genuinely different while delivering strong incremental sales for retailers.”

IRN-BRU Energy was originally launched to meet growing consumer demand for flavoured energy drinks, a segment that has grown rapidly in recent years as shoppers increasingly look for alternatives to traditional energy profiles.The range returns with the same
unmistakable IRN-BRU character and a launch campaign that promises to stand out.

Available nationally, the range will give retailers the opportunity to drive incremental energy sales with a product that combines the strength of the IRN-BRU brand with the growth potential of the energy category.
