14 Nov 2012The Produce Marketing Association recently met in Anaheim, CA to discuss ways to market product to kids. Previously they were focusing on marketing to moms.
“Produce is all about helping people eat more healthfully, but also have more fun when they’re eating,” said Bryan Silbermann, president and CEO of the Produce Marketing Association.
Different product companies are teaming up with brands, such as Disney, to create catchy packages to attract kids. For example, salad company Ready Pac Produce partnered with Disney to put some of their well-known characters on the packaging.
“We’ve got the ‘Shake It Up’ brand on our Caesar salad.

There’s also a fun surprise in each product for the kids.”

Private-label brands are the stars of the show—and prime moneymakers on the shelves—at Sunflower Farmers Market (Boulder, CO, Phoenix, AZ), a network of full-service grocery stores in the Southwest. “Whenever we introduce a private-label item, it skyrockets straight to the top of its category,” says Daniel Sinclair, director of private label for the 36-store chain, where the inventory includes a mix of house and national brands.
