The Most Creative Campaigns, Brands
and Agencies in Retail

 
Communications trends: Retail

SUSTAINABILITY AND SAVINGS ARE ON CONSUMERS’ MINDS, AND MANY RETAIL BRANDS REFLECTED THESE PREOCCUPATIONS IN THEIR CAMPAIGNS.

The creative leader in the retail sector was Colombia’s Makro, with a smart and simple way of extending the life of fruit. But there’s always room in our industry for a heartwarming animated film, and Café Joyeux delivered with a personal story highlighting its inclusive workforce. Home improvement retailer Hornbach’s “Square Meter” was suitably well-crafted. Elsewhere, amidst inflation and pinched budgets, campaigns enabling consumers to save money rose to the top: notably German discounter Penny’s “the packaging is the price” initiative. In a similar vein was “The Inflation Cookbook”, which combines tech with recipes.
Brands are positioning themselves as financial allies, helping consumers navigate inflation and economic challenges. They are also leveraging digital innovation to create more personalized and interactive experiences. Companies are making corporate social responsibility (CSR) a core part of their brand messaging.
