Help customers embrace their love of the season with Cartology and Youtube
After a year of cancellations, Australians are looking forward to summer and the warmer weather. For some of us, it’s multiple trips to the beach. For others, weekends full of reconnecting with loved ones in real life instead of video chats. Wherever it may be, families and friends across Australia will always come together over a meal or two, and that means shopping.
During the festive season, 75% of Everyday Rewards members will shop at another Woolworths store other than their regular local store1, signalling that no matter where we are spending our time through summer, the grocery shop at Woolworths remains a constant.
This summer, we can expect customers to have a few categories on their list, including cleaning, BBQ, health and beauty and sports with history showing categories such as sports drinks, cook-in sauces and multi chip packets experiencing sales growth upwards of 20%3.
Whether customers are looking to discover fresh seasonal produce, find ideas and inspiration for summer entertaining at home or away, help your customers embrace their love of the season pre, during and post shop. After all, we know that 38% of shoppers actively want to hear from brands and learn about new products2.
