Sainsbury's to launch Good food for all of us

Sainsbury’s is launching a new campaign, promising Good food for all of us, a slogan which will feature in all of its advertising and marketing campaigns from November.

Through the new promise Sainsbury’s wants to provide good food for all customers, whatever their budget, tastes or dietary requirements, and however busy their daily lives.

Tasty, well-sourced food brings families and friends together and makes every occasion special and Sainsbury’s knows good food matters to everybody, every day. In its research 85% of adults said they'd thought about or discussed with someone else what to have for their next evening meal; making it one of life’s enduring and vital questions.

But the truth is, good food isn't easy for everyone to arrange. Many people struggle to find the time, energy and inspiration to plan, shop for and prepare the food they really want to eat or to feed to their families. 59% of people tend to cook the same dishes every week. 

And good food becomes even more challenging where money is tight for many of us, with 9 million adults experiencing food insecurity and 30% of parents skipping meals at least once a week to ensure their children have enough to eat.

Sainsbury’s aims to bring back the spark to mealtimes with Good food for all of us. By providing the widest choice of quality food and pricing its food accessibly and competitively, it's determined to help everyone make the most of their mealtimes.

Radha Davies, Director of Brands, Planning and Creative at Sainsbury's, said: “Everyone at Sainsbury’s is passionate about the food we sell, and this includes not only our 152,000 colleagues up and down the country, but our suppliers, farmers and fishing partners too. 

"Yet we recognise it can sometimes be difficult for customers to have the time, money or inspiration to access the joy that good food can bring.  So, we want to go further by actively helping to put good food - in all of its senses, from quality and taste, to value and accessibility, at the heart of customers’ lives.  Sainsburys has always been a warm, human brand and we'll seek to build even stronger connections with our customers than ever before."  

Over the past year, Sainsbury’s has been working hard to ensure all customers have access to affordable, great value food. The ongoing Aldi Price Match is now bigger than ever before with over 400 products, and since the launch of Nectar Prices last April, there are over 5,000 lower prices available in supermarkets and online when shopping with Nectar, saving customers over £371m.

Sainsbury’s Nourish the Nation community programme aims to ensure an even wider pool of people have access to balanced, nutritional and sustainable food sources, as well as helping to prevent people and communities from falling further into food poverty. 

It's also donated over 15 million meals worth of surplus food through its partnership with Neighbourly, as well as customer food donations redistributed via Fareshare.

Through innovation, Sainsbury’s aims to continue to bring exciting and different new products to customers.  This month it launched the largest lower carbon beef range ever produced in the UK through its Taste the Difference Aberdeen Angus products. Its on-the-go Flourish range was developed earlier this year directly in response to customers’ wants and needs, in this case those who may be time poor and unable to sit and eat.

The new marketing campaign was developed in conjunction with New Commercial Arts and will run across TV, Press, Radio, OOH and Cinema, as well as digital advertising on social media from November onwards. 

As it's only a couple of months to Christmas this type of initiative is most welcome.
