Kraft & General Mills
Perfect Pairings
Perfect Pairings.
This in-store campaign pairs Kraft with General Mills to cross-promote their grocery items while boosting Target’s P-Fresh products.
Executions
The three-phase program is simple: buy two items—one from Kraft, one from General Mills—and save.
Breakfast (April): Morning Mates
Lunch (September): Lunch Mates
Health & Wellness (January): Healthy Mates
Morning Mates
The talk boxes at the ends of aisles are tagged with the Morning Mates program name and feature a QR code that gives customers access to recipes, coupons, and more. For easy product rotation, product “tabs” lock into the talk boxes and are replaceable. The abstract background image ties in with a Target P-Fresh breakfast product: eggs.
Lunch Mates
Four months later, a new set of talk boxes appear for Lunch Mates and feature a slot holding recipes and shopping lists for takeaway. The abstract background image ties in with a Target P-Fresh lunch product: bread.
Healthy Mates
The following season, the new boxes promote Healthy Mates. At checkout, customers receive a Catalina coupon offer that also emphasizes multiple purchases. The abstract background image ties in with a Target P-Fresh product: lettuce.
Target.com Homepage
The MATES branding expands online and introduces lifestyle imagery. Links connect to featured recipe and branded ingredient information.
