Tragic love ignites everyone’s emotions. That’s the first big tick for BMF’s new work for Aldi. The work is strikingly different – Shop Aldi First, tells Australians it’s OK to visit other supermarkets. There’s tick number two. The promise is that they’ll save more if they shop at Aldi first. And that’s the tick trifecta. It’s a wonderfully confident and winningly friendly idea.

“The new year is often a time for being more mindful and intentional in setting new routines,” stated Jenny Melhuish, marketing director at ALDI Australia. “It makes sense to shop with ALDI first when a basket of groceries is considerably cheaper than at other supermarkets. Post-Christmas and holiday spending, we think Australians should rethink their habits to easily save themselves serious cash.

“We know consumer shopping habits are such that few people only shop at one place. You might have a particular bakery that you get a croissant from in the mornings, or you might need smoked herring paste for a very specific recipe. But true savings are made when you make ALDI your first shop. It’s about creating new habits in 2023, that we are sure will save Australians cold, hard-earned, cash.”

The campaign was built on new research revealing that almost half of Aussies (45%) chose their supermarket based on their parents’ brand of choice despite the savings they may be missing out on elsewhere. More than three quarters of Australians (78%) have changed their grocery shopping habits in the last twelve months, and one in five (21%) are considering changing where they shop to save money in the next year.

The full campaign covers TV, BVOD, OLV, OOH, print, radio, digital, and social. The campaign reinforces ALDI’s commitment to providing the highest quality products at unbeatable prices.
