  • Supervalu: How a Brave Local Brand Defied the Forces of Globalisation
    SuperValu: How a brave local brand defied the forces of globalisation DDFH&B COMPANY PROFILE AGENCY The DDFH&B Group consists of DDFH&B Advertising, Goosebump, The Reputations Agency, RMG and Mindshare Media – making it one of the largest Irish companies in creative advertising, media buying and customer relationship/digital marketing. Together, they provide channel-neutral, integrated marketing communications campaigns that deliver real, measurable results. They achieve this level of integration by working in a number of small, multi-disciplined teams, calling it ‘fun sizing’. They continue to be one of the most successful agencies in Ireland, working with clients such as Kerry Foods, SuperValu, The National Lottery, eir, Littlewoods, Lucozade and Molson Coors. CLIENT AWARD LONG TERM EFFECTIVENESS Sponsored by GOLD 1 SuperValu: How a brave local brand defied the forces of globalisation DDFH&B INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND This is a story about long term effectiveness. It is a story about how a brave local retailer with daring ambition wrestled back leadership from Tesco and defied the forces of globalisation. SuperValu was founded in 1979 with a base of just 16 stores, mainly in Munster. While they had grown to 182 stores by 2004, and acquired Superquinn (another Irish retailer) in 2011, they were a retailer with two speeds, an urban speed and a rural speed. The urban speed was still reeling from the Superquinn takeover, when stores were rebranded to SuperValu in 2014. Superquinn had a more premium brand perception, much closer to the Waitrose proposition in the UK. Consumers were in a state of chassis as they felt they were paying convenience store prices in large supermarkets and were unfamiliar with the brand and mistrustful of its quality.

  • National Economic Context
    3.0 INTRODUCTION In setting out this strategy it is important to assess the economic context at a national and regional level as current and projected economic growth can have a profound effect on factors such as expenditure change and thus on the nature and quantum of retail development that occurs. Indeed, the exceptional economic performance of the ‘Celtic Tiger’ coupled with continued immigration and falling unemployment rates has resulted in a broadening of the nation’s retail offer. As can be expected, this rapid expansion in the country’s retail market has been associated with the emergence of a number of distinct trends in retailing. One of the purposes of this chapter is to examine the principle retail trends which are likely to have an impact on the development of the retail sector in Longford. 3.1 ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE TO DATE Ireland has one of the world’s most globalised economies, with extensive external trade and investment links. It is also one of the world’s most dynamic, with annual growth rates well in excess of averages for the developed world. Ireland’s period of unprecedented economic growth began in the early 1990’s. Between 1990 and 1995 the economy grew at an annual average growth rate of 4.8% and, between 1995 and 2000, it averaged 9.5%. Growth rates have since been maintained in the 4-5% range, a level almost five times higher than the old EU15 average.1 The legacy of this ‘Celtic Tiger’ economy is substantial, in particular regarding the country’s transition from one of Europe’s poorest economies to one of its
