Summary
ALDI’s Perfect Aussie Christmas is a glorious cultural mirror to Australia’s franken-Christmas, where Northern and Southern Hemisphere rituals somehow make peace under sun-drenched mistletoe. The campaign has been a key driver of ALDI’s growth over the last five years, and the 2015 campaign won two Silver Effies. In 2016, we took the Perfect Aussie Christmas to the next level by introducing a family of American Christmas-evangelists who brought a little festive rivalry, and gave Australians a renewed pride in their own unique version of Christmas. Australia: Meet the Tinkletons. The campaign out-sold the highly effective 2015 campaign by 28%, delivering an ROI of $1.88 at enormous scale.
