The innovation of new Trident Vitality goes beyond flavor, incorporating sleek and stylish packaging that features a unique, fun "click" when open or closed.

12/17/2010 --- Trident sugar free gum, announced a new addition to the Trident family – Trident Vitality.  The new offering includes three blends of sophisticated flavors and inspired ingredients – each with its own twist. Offered in three feel-good flavors – Vigorate, Rejuve and Awaken – Trident Vitality adds a little piece of delicious well-being to the gum-chewing experience, with Vitamin C, ginseng or white tea infused into each delicious piece.

Trident Vitality marks the first offering in the Trident gum family to incorporate the following unique array of new flavor ingredients:

* Vigorate – A burst of citrus and strawberry with Vitamin C.  One piece of Trident Vitality Vigorate contains 10% of the Daily Value of Vitamin C.
* Rejuve – A refreshing blend of luscious mint and white tea.
* Awaken – A peppy peppermint with a dash of ginseng.

"Based on research, we found that many consumers were looking for unique new flavors that fit with their wellness lifestyle," said Kelly Bivens, Brand Manager, Trident.  "We always try to respond to consumers needs, and so far the response has been terrific. Vitality has tested as one of our best-tasting gums to date, and we are very excited to bring it to our consumers nationwide."

The innovation of new Trident Vitality goes beyond flavor, incorporating sleek and stylish packaging that features a unique, fun "click" when open or closed. Additionally, the packaging is a full box, with a blister pack inside, and conveniently closes to ensure the blister pack does not slip out.  This is unlike traditional blister packaging, which is cut open on both sides.

The launch of Trident Vitality also coincides with a new integrated national campaign that consists of television, print, in-store marketing, online and viral media, as well as a 20-market sampling tour and strategic national partnerships.
