⏱️The 3 Moves That Decide Who Wins Peak 2025

Every brand talks about “winning Peak.” Few actually do. In this short video, Fospha’s Aidan Gadd breaks down the 3 moves that decide who comes out on top in Peak 2025.

📌WEEKLY MUST-KNOWS

CERTIFICATION AND MARKETPLACE LAUNCH
Blacklabel Supplements Debuts NSF-Certified Collagen Protein On Amazon
BlackLabel launched an NSF Certified for Sport collagen protein on Amazon, positioning joint and bone support for pre and post-workout use. Certification is a trust accelerant as teams and leagues increasingly steer athletes to vetted SKUs, raising the bar for claims and safety on marketplaces. Amazon-native sports nutrition brands, athletic programs, and compliance-focused retailers are in scope.

Ninja partnered with Babylist and other registries to land appliances on “less traditional” wishlists via custom editorial, influencers, CRM and on-site placements. The play reaches high-intent life-event shoppers before RMNs bid them up, offering a lower-CAC path into young-family households. Driven by Ninja under SharkNinja’s rising ad spend, affecting brands vying for gift guide and registry real estate.

Starbucks will launch its 2025 holiday menu on Nov. 6 and roll out a Hello Kitty collaboration spanning plush, drinkware and gift cards, with Red Cup Day expected mid-November. The licensed drop turns seasonal beverages into gifting moments and limited-merch demand spikes that lift AOV and footfall. Led by Starbucks and Sanrio, with implications for Q4 collaborations and giftable merch planning.

Lipton and Nate’s Honey kicked off a fall co-marketing program with in-store and digital displays, influencer partnerships, ambassador kits and tasting events. The tie-up amplifies category cross-sell, targets lower- and zero-sugar occasions, and blends shopper and creator spend for conversion. Driven by both brands’ shopper marketing teams, with retailers, affiliates and creators in the mix.
