If you were in Clapham last Friday you may well have seen a man dressed as a banana. Despite your first impressions, he was not a reveller still out carousing from the fancy dress party the night before. Nor was a he a victim of a cruel prank (well, not quite!) He was in fact our very own salesman, George, who was helping us hand out free bottles of Simply Nectar to lucky passersby.

| The sight you may have seen |
Yes, George does like bananas but sadly he doesn’t frequently dress up as a piece of fruit and parade around London. If you missed him this time you may therefore not see this spectacle again. BUT, don’t fear because we did of course take photographs to mark the occasion.

We had decided to hand out some free Simply Nectar for a few reasons. Not only were we feeling generous, we were in the mood to encourage you guys to ditch those sugary drinks and enjoy pure fruit goodness instead. Plus, it is Simply Nectar’s tenth anniversary this year so we wanted to help celebrate this big event by giving away freebies.
Unfortunately, the day we had chosen to do the giveaway was a dreary and wet Friday but we tried not to let this get in our way. It may have been raining but we figured what better way to cheer up south London then by getting a soggy banana to hand out free banana flavoured drinks!
Why the banana ones I hear you ask? Well, a) George really really really wanted to wear his banana suit b) we really really really wanted to see George in said banana suit and c) we had lots of delicious banana drinks available so it made sense really. Also, bananas are full of potassium so were the perfect way to cheer up our bodies on a rainy day in what was supposed to be England’s summer.
The giveaway went extremely well and you locals went bananas (sorry!) for our Banana Simply Nectar. We gave away a few Pear Simply Nectars too, which went down extremely well. They were like a little surprise in the lucky dip box!
We had lots of interest from passersby. It turns out loads of people wanted to lap up our drinks and who wouldn’t when they are receiving them from a man dressed as a banana! Everyone tried the Simply Nectar - from cabbies and builders going about their daily tasks to travellers and shoppers who were just enjoying being in Clapham. We gave the Simply Nectar to anybody who wanted some and those that drank it there and then gave us a big thumbs up for the taste. And who could blame them. The Simply Nectar drinks are pure heaven – even if we do say so ourselves!
