Summary

With new competitors entering the SEA markets, to maintain the Autralia premium positioning and brand awareness, and to become the preferred red
meat choice for consumers, there is a need to strongly promote Australian red meat attributes and points of difference and grow Australian Beef & Lamb brand equity in the region.

Consumer-facing campaigns were conducted in the six priority markets, including 'always on' social digital campaign focusing on ABL content pillars; media and PR events, and integrated retail/food service promotions with targeted trade key accounts. Always-on social digital activities generated >10 million impressions across the region.

In-store promotions generated 15-30% growth in sales during campaign period with high level of uptake of ABL collateral and communication materials in-store. Trade events such as webinars and workshops generated >75% stakeholder satisfaction.

Objectives

This project covers the reporting period of 2020 – 2025 and addresses
the following International Markets priorities for the South Asia region:

  • Priority 1: Build brand equity for Australian red meat amongst targeted
    consumers.
  • Priority 2: Increase the ‘physical availability’ of Australian beef,
    lamb and goatmeat products.
  • Priority 3: Develop ‘educated ambassadors’ (staff, customers, media and influencers).
  • Priority 4: Cultivate commercial investment to grow overall sales and
    marketing presence for Australian red meat products.
