It’s not Cinco de Mayo without guacamole. Avocados From Mexico (AFM), the number one selling brand of avocados in the U.S., is partnering with Mission and Modelo to help shoppers turn their Cinco festivities into CincOMG-worthy celebrations.
The shopper program from the #AlwaysGood avocado brand celebrates Cinco de Mayo, the second biggest consumption occasion in the U.S. for avocados and guacamole. In fact, avocado consumption during the first four weeks leading up to Cinco de Mayo has grown +27% over the last 5 years according to data from Nielsen. The partnership between the three iconic brands is fueled by fun in-store displays, consumer savings, sweepstakes, digital and social activations to inspire shoppers to create delicious party snacks and recipes. The program launches in-store beginning April 11 – May 9, 2022.
“Cinco de Mayo represents a great opportunity to showcase the essence and origin of Avocados From Mexico – the spirit of Mexicanity,” said Stephanie Bazan, Vice President of Shopper and Trade Marketing at Avocados From Mexico. “It’s important for us to connect with shoppers as they get ready to celebrate this holiday with friends and family. And by partnering with perfect avocado pairings like Mission chips and tortillas and Modelo beer, we’re making it convenient for shoppers to find all the essentials they need for Cinco parties.”
AFM’s partnership with Mission and Modelo creates an in-store Cinco destination by combining three items central to Cinco celebrations. In fact, Cinco shoppers double their basket spend when buying chips and avocados. They also spend 1.7x more when buying beer and avocados, compared to when avocados are not in the basket. Cinco de Mayo avocado shoppers are also frequent shoppers, making 19.4 trips per year compared to the average avocado shoppers at 10.7 trips per year.
