AHDB CAMPAIGN ADDS £12 MILLION TO TOTAL PORK SALES


Almost £12 million of additional pork sales have been gained following the latest phases of AHDB’s Midweek Meals campaign, with the help of a giant chicken.


According to Kantar Worldpanel research*, pork medallion sales increased by 24 per cent and all promoted cuts by 13.9 per cent over 12 months. During the past two years, the same campaign generated a total of £25 million in additional sales for the industry.


The tongue-in-cheek TV adverts featured a man dressed as a giant disgruntled chicken and were seen by 83 per cent of UK households. Every pound spent on marketing generated an additional £7.31 in sales.


Importantly, the independent evaluation showed the campaign has successfully improved consumer perception of fresh pork as ‘suitable for midweek meals’ by 10 percentage points compared to pre-advertising.


More than three years ago, AHDB committed to attracting younger customers to pork – the latest campaign results show almost half of the £3.2 million additional sales generated came from
