Florette, the leading brand in the UK’s £598 million leafy prepared salads market, has announced a partnership with social media sensation, Poppy O’Toole – better known as Poppy Cooks.
Poppy shot to fame last year posting delicious simple recipes and food hacks, amassing millions of followers across social media, after the pandemic left the Michelin-trained chef out of a job.
The campaign includes a series of recipes and videos created by Poppy using Florette, competitions and exclusive content, and seeks to inspire shoppers to enjoy great-tasting, healthier food choices throughout the winter months.
“As the clocks change and the cold weather draws in, soups, stews and casseroles are unsurprisingly among the go-to dishes for Brits this winter, however salads remain firmly on the menu,” said Tessa Dunbar, Brand Manager at Florette UK. “Research shows more than a third (34 per cent) of Brits continue to eat salad through the winter months, including side of plate servings and festive favourites such as the classic prawn cocktail (23 per cent). We’d urge retailers to ensure they have a good selection available in store to meet demand.
“We’re delighted to be partnering with Poppy, who has become a household name thanks to her tasty, fresh and inspiring posts – attributes we value as a brand,” she added. “With her incredible following, demand will only increase as shoppers seek out the ingredients to replicate her inspiring winter warmer recipes!”
The 6 week campaign runs throughout November into December.
In conjunction with the campaign, Florette will bring back its “Merry Crispy” packs for the festive season. The limited edition, which transforms 170G packs of Florette Crispy, saw over 1.2m packs sold over a six week period last year.
