Influencing consumers where it matters most

Despite the rise in e-comm over the past year, brick and mortar remains the dominant channel for grocery, with 93% of sales occurring in-store. Consumers are ripe to be influenced by in-store messaging: 78% of consumers make grocery purchase decisions during their shopping trip, with 48% attributing an unplanned purchase to an in-store display or sign.

Shelf-edge media that converts

In-store marketing can be powerful, and there is no more influential place to capture consumers’ attention than at the shelf-edge, where shoppers actively decide which of the competitive offerings to place in their cart. CPG marketers recognize shelf-edge media as a powerful vehicle that amplifies omnichannel messaging and drives measurable results.

Not all shelf-edge media is created equal, however. Vestcom shares best practices to get the most out of activating marketing messages at the shelf-edge, based on their expertise in deploying shelfAdz® media campaigns for more than 500 CPGs.
