Parfetts launches new 'Big Ticket' promotional campaign

Parfetts has launched the Big Ticket, a new promotional initiative that offers suppliers an extensive three-week brand activation across depot, digital and retail channels.

The activation is a brand takeover that offers enhanced front-of-depot placement, complete depot takeover, checkout screens and in-depot large-format print and reception window vinyls. Online, a full order capture system takeover across desktop and app formats, and digital campaigns, including WhatsApp, push notification, email and social campaigns, are conducted across three weeks.


The promotion continues in-store with customer retail communications, consumer leaflets, full retail store POS kits and RDA support to encourage increased sales, merchandising and ranging across the symbol network.

Commenting on the initiative, Gurms Athwal, trading director at Parfetts, said, “Parfetts prides itself on the relationships it builds with suppliers and customers plus the quality of the activations we deliver for them across all our channels. We bring all our knowledge and insight to campaigns and generate industry-leading results. This expertise underpins our new Big Ticket 360-degree activation.

“The results of the first Big Ticket 360 campaign with Carlsberg have been outstanding. The campaign significantly increased the visibility of the 1664 Biere brand, with over 150 pallets on display across all the depots, and impressive sales for the new Blanc brand, more than doubling distribution levels.”

The wider brand portfolio saw the same success with the activity delivering Carlsberg increased sales, engagement, and volume for a premium brand in a competitive market.

The activation boosted sales and margins for Parfetts' customers, with the added incentive of winning a wide selection of prizes and a number of star prizes of £1,664 through the campaign.

Parfetts is now running a Pepsico Walkers and Britvic joint Big Ticket 360 activation. Brands looking to grow their presence in independent retail and have a full 360 brand activation are encouraged to contact their Parfetts trading contact.

Athwal concluded, “Partner with Parfetts to create a bespoke package that will drive engagement, distribution and sales for your brand with unparalleled support in building engagement with an ever-growing network of Go Local retailers. Always keeping the end consumer at the forefront of our thinking.

Brits out in force to support indies on Small Business Saturday

Despite stormy weather conditions hitting the UK last weekend, the nation’s support for small businesses remains strong, according to new research. The study by American Express to mark this year’s Small Business Saturday (7 December) shows that even faced with the force of Storm Darragh, over 10 million Brits shopped small on Small Business Saturday.

The research suggests that a collective £634m was spent on Small Business Saturday in-store and online. The survey of 4,000 adults revealed average spend per person on the day was the highest since 2020, with top reasons for shopping small including wanting to support business owners on the high street (53 per cent) and recognising that it has been a tough period for small businesses (39 per cent). Encouragingly, seven in 10 (70 per cent) adults surveyed said they will continue to shop small next year because of the positive impact these businesses have on local communities.
