Inglorious Fruit and Vegetables from Intermarché

Posted in: Animation

French supermarket chain Intermarché has won the Non Traditional Grand Prix at the London International Awards for “Inglorious Fruits and Vegetables”, a campaign promoting produce usually rejected because of ugliness. Produce which had been discarded for purely cosmetic reasons was displayed in special aisles and sold at a 30 percent discount. Launched in 2013, the campaign stirred a national conversation about food waste. Ugly fruit and vegetables are now also available in soup and fruit juice form. Products were promoted with print, billboards, TV, radio, PR, and Intermarché’s catalogues and social media platforms. Intermarché stores were rebranded “inglorious”, with in-store advertising spread from floor to ceiling.
