Swamp launches Heinz Salad Cream website
Swamp has produced a new website for Heinz Salad Cream to combat the product's loss of popularity.
The product has experienced a loss of popularity with some consumers in recent years who regard it as less healthy than mayonnaise or salad dressing alternatives. Heinz is addressing this issue through the site by re-engaging target consumers including mums aged 25-44.
Sarah Crimmens, marketing assistant at Heinz, said: “Our research had shown that there were many misconceptions about our product and this new website will address those issues.” The site includes a recipe selection that enables visitors to view streaming videos of chef Dan Green preparing a range of dishes which feature the Heinz product. Visitors with their own ideas for recipes can send them in for a chance to win cash prizes. Phil Stott, account director at Swamp, said: “A large proportion of the target audience grew up with Heinz Salad Cream and research has shown that it often invokes a taste of childhood summers. The website will reassure this group, many of whom are now parents themselves, that this ‘pourable sunshine’ is versatile and far lower in fat than many of its rivals."
