2026 Campaign of the Year
Unilever executed a masterclass in unified planning, connecting broadcast entertainment and retail commerce, extending above the line content into the path to purchase.
To re-engage younger buyers and gain market share, Unilever leveraged first-party customer insights and basket-affinity signals to intercept shoppers outside the aisle. Featuring "Back Your Team" creative, the campaign carried vibrant brand creative from the theatre of the store through to digital search, eDM’s and more.
The strategy drove the #1 deodorant sales week in Woolworths and acquired over 539,000 new-to-brand customers.
Partner of the Year
Recognised for their outstanding collaborative partnership, strategic alignment, and long-term commitment to Retail Media excellence across Woolworths and BIG W, Mondelēz International demonstrated continuous innovation and cross-stakeholder co-creation to drive sustained category growth. A brave, forward-thinking partner, they piloted key innovations like BIG W Cartology Promoted Products across major seasonal tentpoles, proving that deep operational alignment unlocks exceptional brand growth.
