About 7UP / RC BOTTLING
Created by the Howdy Corporation in St. Louis, MO, 7UP was an optimistic venture from the very start. After great success with the Howdy Orange drink, company founder C.L. Grigg decided to try his luck with lemons and limes.
C.L. Grigg spent more than two years testing over 11 different formulas, all in search of a drink that was refreshing enough – more... to prove irresistible to the people of Missouri and the world at large. In 1929, C.L. Grigg's bubbliest drink was born.
The public quickly developed a taste for Grigg's caramel colored lemon-lime soda. Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda sold, and sold well.
As the drink grew more and more popular, the original name was traded in for something short and sweet. Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda became known as 7UP.
Early advertising featured a winged 7UP logo with copy that read "a glorified drink in bottles only. Seven natural flavors blended into a savory, flavory drink with a real wallop."
The drink was so successful by 1936 that Grigg changed the name of The Howdy Corporation to The Seven-Up Company. By the late 1940s, 7UP had become the third best-selling soft drink in the world.
In the decades to follow, 7UP developed iconic branding, setting it apart from industry front-runners. In 1967, 7UP brought the phrase UNCOLA into the national vernacular. Always at the frontier of taste and pop culture, 7UP was also among the first sodas to introduce sugar-free and caffeine free options. Through the years, advertising for 7UP featured everything from a cartoon mascot named Spot, to the "It's an Up thing" and "Make 7UP yours" taglines.
Whatever the flavor of the moment, 7UP has remained consistently mouth watering and infectiously bubbly. And the current 7UP campaign is no different. The "Ridiculously Bubbly" campaign is a testament to the uplifting spirit the brand was founded on. – less – More from ZoomInfo »
