Activations in Action
For a leading FMCG food brand, Tradeway ran a national in-store sampling and engagement activation across major metro regions over an eight-week period, engaging more than 47,000 shoppers at the point of decision. The activation converted engaged shoppers into buyers at a rate of over 150%, as many shopped who tried the product went on to purchase more than one unit, which is proof that a well-designed moment of attention delivered at the right point in the shopper journey does more than build awareness. It moves product
