Changing perceptions: when frozen food becomes an ally in eating better

Challenge

Objectives

Solution

In a context where consumer expectations are shifting toward greater naturalness, transparency, and nutritional quality, processed foods continue to face preconceived notions.

Findus, despite being firmly established in the daily diets of French consumers, faced a twofold challenge: breaking down prejudices surrounding frozen foods and highlighting its commitment to responsible practices.

Promote the Findus brand as a responsible player in better eating.

Boost awareness of Findus and Croustibat to mark the 30th anniversary of the children's brand.

Highlight the CSR commitments made by both brands.

Support the visibility of new products in the press and among influencers.

Change perceptions of frozen foods by promoting taste, nutrition, and convenience.

Oxygen activated an RP and influence strategy at the crossroads of editorial and experiential content to develop a narrative that combines gourmet pleasure and responsible eating through a series of targeted actions, product promotions, and public statements.

Plan

  • Taste testing to convince: strategic product promotion

    • Selection of journalists and influencers with similar interests (cooking, consumer affairs, families)
    • Sending of personalized kits including new Findus and Croustibat products
    • Nutritional information and recipe cards to accompany the tasting
    • Product storytelling focused on taste, simplicity, and quality commitments
  • Creating a narrative around CSR commitments

    • Activation of corporate communications around the brand’s sustainable commitments
    • Positioning Findus as an active and demanding player in the field of better eating in the general and specialized media
  • Optimize the PR calendar to align with consumer highlights

    • Synchronization of press activities with peak consumption periods (back-to-school, winter, etc.)
    • Regular promotion of new products and brand news
    • One-off activation for Croustibat’s 30th anniversary: nostalgic storytelling and a new recipe in the spotlight
