Information about Kia Ora
Kia-Ora is a concentrated fruit soft drink, made by Atlantic Industries and produced in the UK by Coca-Cola Enterprises Ltd. It comes in many fruit flavours.
It takes its name from "kia ora", a Māori language greeting which has entered New Zealand English. It means literally "be well/healthy" and is used for both "hello" and "goodbye". The name was first used for a lemon squash by John Dixon of Sydney, Australia who founded an ice and soft-drink business in 1896. First created in Australia in 1903, 'Kia-Ora' was launched in Great Britain in 1917.
Early advertising used the jingle "We all adore a Kia-Ora". Later promotions included a song by Caramba called "Fido", and the slogan "too orangey for crows"; crows are intolerant of citrus fruit [1]. The slogan was used during a scene in an episode of the British sit-com Spaced.
