AI Overview

What happened: Coca-Cola launched a multi-restaurant ad campaign to stimulate soda sales amid falling diner traffic. Subway introduced poppi prebiotic sodas to its US outlets, each containing 5g of sugar, aligning with their "better-for-you" positioning. Domino's offered free Slice Sauce and exclusive Shinola merchandise with certain pizza orders.

Market impact: These promotional efforts by major restaurant chains and beverage suppliers could drive sales growth in the restaurant and beverage sectors.

Subway's same-store sales growth in the US (reported quarterly) will indicate the success of their prebiotic soda launch. Domino's Q1 2023 earnings (May 9) will show if their promotional offer translates to increased sales.
