SUMMARY
Discount grocery is a commoditized battleground, and stores like No Frills carry an unfair perception. The challenge was how do you de-stigmatize shopping at No Frills to attract more value seekers? Instead of rebranding the store, we decided to rebranded the customers, and give them permission to celebrate their frugality. At other grocery stores shoppers shop. At No Frills, HAULERS HAUL. The integrated and untraditional HAULERS campaign struck a nerve, exceeding all KPIs including sales growth, at a time when the category was down.
