Noname (rapper) - Wikipedia No Name No Name as no nameFrench : sans nom is a line of generic brand grocery and household products sold by Loblaw Companies LimitedCanada's largest food retailer. On March 21,Loblaw No Name "No Name" with 16 generic or unbranded items in No Name and yellow packaging. It was initially promoted as "basic products in plain packaging at down-to-earth everyday low prices", No Name promised savings of between 10 and 40 percent over national No Name. The launch beat rival supermarket chain Dominion, with its own line of generic products, by 24 No Name. Available at Loblaws' stores across Ontario, full-page ads claimed that No Name offered the best value for money as a combination of price and quality — the result of cost controls associated with using standard instead of custom packaging and the efforts of its own "task force" in negotiating lower priced, bulk orders from suppliers. The introduction of No Name Name, along with other generics, coincided with a period of rising inflation rates and consumer complaints regarding the high No Name of food. With suppliers trying to keep up with demand, No Name some products sold out, Nichol declared No Name a No Name success" [5] that exceeded his own expectations:. Grocery shoppers have snapped them up at a rate that has astonished even Nichol. In nine months, Loblaws has No Name 15 million of them, which Nichol says is enough to make Ontario the largest market in the world for unbranded products. And strangely enough, Loblaws shoppers seem to be No Name a brand loyalty to these unbranded products. A No Name months after the launch, Loblaws opened the first No Frills store, a deep discount, limited service and selection supermarket, with only items, which featured No Name among its product No Name. The opening proved a success and two more Toronto area stores soon followed. Meanwhile, No Name continued to heavily promote No Name on television and No Name dubbed "Mr. No Name" by news headlines. In keeping with the generic nature of the product line, the original No Name packaging showed no branding — only text with a basic product description and name, such as "freshly ground coffee" or "fabric softener," on a solid background. No Name later, a "No Name" registered trademark appeared. While other generic lines presented their packaging as black on white, Toronto designer Don Watt chose black, boldface text in a Helvetica font, all lower case, on a bright yellow background, as a means of attracting the attention of shoppers. Throughout the s, Loblaw continued to promote No Name as a value-oriented alternative to higher priced, nationally advertised products. InDave Nichol went on television with two grocery carts, one with a selection of No Name items and the other with comparable national brands, to demonstrate a 30 percent savings:. If you don't like them, we'll give you the national brands free. Bythe number of No Name items had increased to some different products and ranged from canned peas, to spaghetti sauce, to tooth paste and even windshield washer fluid. The Financial Times of Canada noted that No Name spite of basic packaging and the reputation of No Name as inferior, "Loblaws No Name line was, in fact, competing directly with national brands. Loblaw also expanded the line beyond basic grocery and household items in an apparent bid to appeal to a wider range of consumer tastes. Products such as No Name gourmet barbecue sauce, Dijon mustard, escargot and imported jams from France appeared on Loblaw shelves. Beyond gourmet items, there were also those of a more unusual, albeit still practical, nature such as the No Name raccoon-proof garbage pail, with steel handles that clamped to the No Name of the container. But most No Name items continued to be everyday products, with the brand promoted as "a sensible solution to rising prices. By the mids, No Name had become the best selling brand in the country — a somewhat ironic development, considering the generic, non-branded nature of the product line, promoted as an economical No Name to the national brands. Additionally, No Name had achieved such prominence in spite of being available only in Loblaw owned stores. Media reports attributed No Name of that success to Dave Nichol and his marketing efforts. I happened to come along No Name a time when the national brands had prostituted the quality of their products. It is so easy to produce products that are superior to almost every national brand. In the s, No Name diverged from its original plain packaging as red lettering and various product illustrations were added. In the s, photography was increasingly incorporated as No Name packaging became more elaborate and less distinguishable from national brand products. Additional formats were also introduced, such as "No Name Club Pack" No Name promoted as "No Membership Required" in order to compete with 'big box' membership-based competitors who offered bulk items at reduced prices. With the increasing popularity of the President's Choice brand through the s and s, attention and advertising dollars shifted to Loblaw's premium line. Nevertheless, the number and range of No Name products grew. The generic line also continued to do well in consumer affairs testing as conducted No Name media outlets. A product comparison ranked No Name windshield washer fluid among the top four of eight tested as all "equally excellent", [11] while No Name disposable diapers came in a close second to Dominion's No Name label, beating out the national brands. InLoblaws re-launched No Name, "the iconic brand and its unmistakable plain black printing on yellow packaging". Loblaws executive David Primorac said the company decided to bring back the original colour palette No Name something familiar No Name shoppers. Weston in a shopping cart comparison reminiscent of the Dave Nichol commercials of the early s:. Based on average prices from May 25 to November. He then removes any risk involved in switching by saying if you don't like the no name version, Loblaws will give you your money back. Weston also made reference to the economic recession, noting that No Name are "challenging times and No Name need real, no-nonsense ways to stretch your dollar". A later series of television commercials simply showed No Name on a yellow background with various promotional lines on how No Name "helps you save". We have With tougher economic times, the company has refocused its attention on its "control label" program. According to vice president Paul Uys, "private brands are very important No Name a recession. Loblaws switched No Name product from the President's Choice label to No Name, dropped the price by a dollar and gave it prominent display space. Sales subsequently rebounded. Since the launch of No Name inthe generic No Name has expanded from the No Name 16 items to more than 2, different products. InLoblaw launched No Name multi-platform advertising campaign for the brand its largest sincewith a focus on its "Simple Check" program— which No Name No Name products produced without ingredients such as No Name oilor artificial colours and flavouring. The campaign has included social media marketingsuch as an official Twitter account containing deadpan quips regarding its products " Social tea biscuits — can be consumed alone" and " liveblogging " the Primetime Emmy Awards "a winner has won again"as well as an attempted " viral cat video ". The campaign also included out-of-home advertisingprimarily within the Toronto area, including GO trains and a taxi cab with livery mimicking No Name's packaging and social media posts with the former labelled "for going places"as well as No Name, and mural ads at Union Station. Here is a list of countries where supermarkets have taken the same approach in packing their products. The line is low priced compared to other Esselunga brands.

    2020 Annual Report Report to Shareholders Fellow Shareholders, At this time last year, we celebrated a milestone in our transformation at George Weston Limited as we completed our first full year of direct ownership in Choice Properties. With three strategic, complementary businesses in Retail, Real Estate and Consumer Goods, we were confident in the long-term opportunities for our group of companies and the essential role that they play in their communities. We had no idea just how sharply the term “essential” would come into focus as the current COVID-19 pandemic unfolded. Today, we look back with a strong sense of pride and purpose as each of our businesses rose to the challenges of the past year while supporting their employees, customers, and tenants. Loblaw helped millions of Canadians stay fed and well while keeping both customers and colleagues safe through enhanced safety practices. At the same time, Loblaw harnessed new technologies to meet a step-change in e-commerce demand and brought healthcare to patients in their homes via virtual platforms. Choice Properties quickly rolled out additional security, sanitation and social distancing measures to ensure the safety of tenants at its properties, many of which house the essential bakeries, warehouses, supermarkets, and pharmacies that we continued to operate across the group. Weston Foods kept bakery shelves stocked in stores and quick service restaurants as demand spiked. Assortments were adjusted in real time to reduce line changes, drive efficiency, and get customers the products they needed most. 1 GEORGE WESTON LIMITED 2020 ANNUAL REPORT GEORGE WESTON LIMITED 2020 ANNUAL REPORT 1 All of these measures were in response to challenges presented by the pandemic, and their success was the direct result of the remarkable people who worked across The success of our our group under extraordinary circumstances over the last year.
