in stylings brand new for Lithuania Explanation: They have introduced (for their customers) soft drink types in stylings that are brand new for Lithuania. "Brand new" = completely new, previously unknown, qualitatively new (the last one sounds technical but does exist). Introducing new kinds of product appearance is a very popular marketing & advertising method nowadays. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 hrs (2014-06-19 09:09:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- “To style” means to create and develop a distinct appearance/image for a product. In the meaning of the result of such process, “styling” is used in these examples from professional writing: (1) “Planned style obsolescence occurs when designers change the styling of products so customers will purchase products more frequently, due to the decrease in the perceived desirability of unfashionable items.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planned_obsolescence#Style_obso... (2) “... industrial designer George Nelson, who wrote: “Design... is an attempt to make a contribution through change. When no contribution is made or can be made, the only process available for giving the illusion of change is ‘styling!’”” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planned_obsolescence#History_an... (3) “The innovative styling of products such as NATURAL CREATIONS® luxury vinyl tile and REJUVENATIONS™ sheet vinyl has helped earn the company a top spot in Design, while admired product attributes like durability, sustainability in manufacturing, longer life spans and low maintenance options have contributed to Armstrong’s longstanding leadership in Performance.” http://www.armstrong.com/commflooringna/2013-floor-focus-des... (4) “This ‘aesthetic illusion’ is established through the appearance of commodities themselves, through the semantic of the product itself. Thus a ‘technocracy of sensuality’ runs through the origination, shaping and promotion of products and in turn shapes consumer expectations. In part his somewhat apocalyptic text may be linked to the styling of products through the application of a ‘second skin’. Cars have to look as well as be fast.” http://tinyurl.com/ka6vdld (via Google Books) The Culture of Design, by Guy Julier / SAGE, 2007 (5) “Whereas design used to be seen as mere “styling” of products, added in the last phase of the New Product Development process, now design is increasingly understood as a strategic activity that can bring a different perspective to a wide range of management challenges.” http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:7UVy_oL... (6) “Using Interactive Genetic Algorithm to Generate New Vehicle Styling Brand Elements with Feature Lines […] Abstract: Vehicle’s appearance or styling plays a key role in its brand identity.” http://design-cu.jp/iasdr2013/papers/1873-1b.pdf (7) “Similarly, styling of the product has become important in most industries but it has always been a critical part of the garment industry.” http://tinyurl.com/pxd3znw (via Google Books) Marketing Management, 1E by A.
