Summary
From Surfing Santas to The Tinkletons, ALDI Christmas is a major retail event. But big success comes with big expectations, competition and Christmas clichés aplenty. Whilst ALDI saw increases at Christmas, perception of quality lagged behind competitors. And with a year of Colesworths pushing half price, ALDI’s value had been knocked. ALDI’s 2017 campaign reframed the value equation from crude quality/price to ‘generosity’ demonstrating ALDI could entice the hungry Christmas mobs in a uniquely Australian way. It was the most successful yet delivering xx lift in sales despite a xx reduction in campaign spend, netting an ROI of xx for every dollar spent.
