Case Study Summary
In response to changing consumer needs and to solidify leadership in wholesome bakery products, all WONDER breads converted to a cleaner label (Project
‘Clean Sweep’). Shortly after, DEMPSTERS as the primary competitor launched 'Country Originals' – a line of breads also free of artificial preservatives,
colours and flavours but which contain added chemical additives not found in WONDER breads. The Clean Sweep communications strategy evolved as a result,
with a strong focus on the brand’s unique point of difference. From late 2011 into Summer 2012 has seen a refocus on driving this hard hitting communication
through integrated consumer touch point strategies both offline and online.
