Kraft's Clight builds a following in light drinks market
Article Abstract:
Kraft Argentina receives strong consumer support for its Clight low-calorie powdered drink, which is patterned after the Crystal Light product of Kraft in the US. The company went beyond its goal for Clight to achieve the same feat as diet soft drinks attained in the soft drinks sector, when it gained a market share of 21.5% in the powdered drinks arena. Clight, which proved to be attractive to women in the 20- to 40-year-old range, sells more as compared to Diet Coke and Diet 7Up combined due to its non-traditional and more refined fruit flavors.

High-tech helps create a boom for Argentina's outdoor advertisement
Article Abstract:
Argentina's outdoor advertising industry is booming as a result of the introduction of advance technology and advertising vehicles. In 1997, outdoor advertising spending hit $30 million, up 7.4% from 1996 and representing 8% of all advertising spending. Expensive technology, such as billboard front-lighting, back-lighting, fabric and moving parts, had to be purchased overseas in the past, allowing advertising agencies to come up with eye-grabbing outdoor advertisements for the lively city of Buenos Aires.
