Tyson
Master Your
Summer
The Situation
With the expansion of grilling tastes and products, private-label brands have been vying for and winning space on the grill. It meant that Tyson was seeing headwinds of declining volume in certain regions due to higher price points and lack of promotional activity. Our task was to stem the decline with an overarching platform that could then be customized to “win the season” at nine customers.
-
Tyson is known for grilling, but to grow our categories, we needed to look beyond the expected peaks of Memorial Day, July 4th and Labor Day. It was time to look beyond just backyard grilling on those days.
-
Summer is not a season; it’s a lifestyle—packed with activities and occasions ripe for meal solutions and inspiration.
-
Shoppers see higher price points than private label, and the frequency of the season doesn’t always make us the go-to.
-
We’ll move beyond the backyard BBQ pairing meals with activities—embracing the micro-occasions of summer amplified by the quality ingredients and personal stamp that Tyson invites shoppers to bring.
