Kikkoman, the European market leader in the manufacture of soy sauce has teamed up with fresh produce brand Tenderstem® broccoli on a reciprocal on-pack promotion. The aim is to demonstrate the versatility of Kikkoman Soy Sauce as a seasoning and condiment, highlight the variety of cuisines that Tenderstem® is perfect for, and encourage trial for both brands
Specially designed neck hangers will appear on Kikkoman 150ml and 250ml bottles and will carry creative recipes using both Tenderstem® and Kikkoman. Everyday usage suggestions on both brands and product information will also be included. A concertina leaflet will be fixed to Tenderstem® packs, carrying a recipe and details of the Tenderstem® website, www.tenderstem.co.uk, where consumers can find over 100 different serving suggestions.
There is also a financial incentive to drive sales – the Tenderstem® pack will include a 50p off Kikkoman Soy Sauce coupon and a 50p off Tenderstem® will appear on the Kikkoman bottles.
Bing-Yu Lee, Manager of Kikkoman Trading Europe’s UK operation said: “We are delighted to be partnering Tenderstem® broccoli on this creative promotion. We want to demonstrate to our consumers how delicious Kikkoman is in cooking so they use it as an effective seasoning and everyday condiment.
“The promotion will give us strong shelf impact over the key early summer sales period. It will reward our loyal users as well as attracting new consumers to Kikkoman and we are confident that it will result in a significant increase in incremental sales across both brands.”
Andy Macdonald, Managing Director of Coregeo Ltd, the master licensor for Tenderstem® in the UK said: “This is a very exciting venture for us. Our campaign this year endeavours to get more of the UK public trying Tenderstem® in different recipes – all of which can be prepared within 10 minutes or less. To collaborate with the premium brand of soy sauce fits perfectly with our strategy.”
The promotion will run on 40,000 x 150ml and 250ml Kikkoman Soy Sauce skus and on 200,000 Tenderstem® broccoli packs.
Promotional packs go into Tesco stores week commencing 4th June and the coupon can be redeemed until 30th June.
