Research shows that avocado shoppers spent two times more when avocados were in their baskets than without for the 10 days leading up to Memorial Day in 20201. That same year, U.S. consumers bought about 22% more pounds of avocados during the week leading up to Memorial Day than the prior year.2 AFM's summer shopper program will continue until the Fourth of July.
Grocery stores and retailers can take advantage of this exciting offer with display bins, in-store IRC tear-pad coupons and a striking partner display header free of charge by contacting their regional directors (while supplies last). Digital engagement tools are also available and include social media promotion of the program, a downloadable recipe eBook and influencer recipe content – all designed to make Avocados From Mexico, NatureSweet® Tomatoes and Shuman Farms RealSweet® Vidalia® Onions worth every bite this summer.
