DURO-TUSS throws product launch with help from Sydney Swans and Chemist Warehouse

Thanks to its official partner status with the Sydney Swans and a partnership with Chemist Warehouse, cough brand DURO-TUSS unveiled its new dry cough liquid forte product at a Swans game this week.

The announcement:

This year DURO-TUSS, Australia’s leading cough brand*, is proud to be an official partner of the Sydney Swans.

As match-day partner in Round 18, in partnership with the Sydney Swans and major retailer Chemist Warehouse, DURO-TUSS launched its new dry cough liquid forte product. To celebrate the launch, 10,000 co-branded supporter t-shirts were handed out, with one lucky Swans fan given the chance to win $10,000.

Shannon was selected from 34,663 members and fans, sporting her best DURO-TOUGH pose in the iconic SCG. At half-time she was given the chance to play for the exciting cash prize.

“I have never won anything in my entire life – I’m so excited,” she shared with Sydney Swans Media.

Shannon’s two sons accompanied her onto the field where she accepted the cheque.

“I’m a single mum. We’re going to buy Ryder a new phone and we’re going to give Bodhi, the youngest, some money. The $10,000 prize will really help support the family.”

Speaking about the launch event Andrew Jenkin, iNova Pharmaceuticals CANZ general manager said, “This is a very exciting product launch for iNova and the DURO-TUSS cough portfolio. We were thrilled to launch DURO-TUSS Dry Cough Liquid Forte at the Sydney Swans game with over 34k fans engaging with our brand. And what a great way to celebrate the launch with Shannon winning the $10,000”

“We could not think of a better launch vehicle for the number one cough brand in Australia*, in partnership with the most supported club in the AFL**, who also just happens to be top of the ladder and leading the competition in 2024.”

“Just like the Sydney Swans, DURO-TUSS has a reputation for toughness and reliability to get the job done and new DURO-TUSS Dextromethorphan Dry Cough Liquid Forte does just that, providing fast relief of stubborn dry coughs, with long lasting relief for up to 8 hours.”

Three home games remain of the regular season with the Swans and DURO-TUSS to return to the SCG in Round 20, 22 and 24.
