Incredible week with the team!
One of our values at Chicory is "Make Chicory Fun," as we believe in building a company that people love working with and working at. Over the last week, we welcomed our entire team to NYC for two days of lunch mixers, in-person team time, and a company all-hands meeting, culminating in a beautiful trip to Macari Vineyards. Shoutout to our talented People Ops team, Janine M. and Angela Bolognese for coordinating this time together.💜
Value based marketing at it’s best
Stella Artois has always been a premium beer. But in today’s world, the meaning of premium has shifted. It’s no longer about classic stereotypical value. It’s about genuine worth that’s deep and personal. To bring Stella Artois into the modern era, we’ve launched “Worth More”, a global platform that taps into the brand’s iconic roots and modernizes it for today’s culture. The global effort kicks off with a film showcasing one of pop culture’s most charming icons in a new light, unexpectedly humbled by the allure of a perfectly poured Stella. A beer with a taste worth more. Congrats Stella Artois and GUT Miami teams! #NoGutNoGlory
Some great advice - what tool do you have in your hand?
Missy, lead cake decorator who has been with Kroger for over 33 years, exemplifies passion and dedication. For her 33-year Kroger anniversary, Missy's husband gifted her a golden spatula. This special spatula symbolizes more than years of service; it represents the heart and soul Missy pours into her work every single day. For Missy, the spatula is a bridge to building relationships, one cake at a time. With each cake she decorates, she creates lasting memories and connections with customers. “No matter who you are, or what you do, you always have the power touch someone’s life.” Listen to Missy in the video above to hear more about her story. #Kroger #WeAreKroger #Culture #Passion #Careers

🤔Did you give up #chocolate in January and have you noticed the #easter Eggs in the supermarkets available now? Did you know that yesterday was known as Quitters Day as the most likely day you give up on resolutions? If yours was chocolate- are you still hanging on in there ? 🤔 Are you like me flummoxed on why to buy Easter eggs in January given Easter is March 31st? 🤔 Could you not eat them if you bought them now? The market is not small so you can understand it from the retailer perspective Total Easter sales including boxed confectionery reached an impressive £640 million CSV[Nielsen ] in 2023, which not only underscores the economic significance of Easter but also highlights the consumer enthusiasm for Easter. ✅ 80 million Easter eggs are given every year My cousin used to have a challenge to see how many Cadbury eggs he could eat - not at one go ( although I suspect that’s a lot) Data shows January is not too early . In 2023, 42% of Easter sales took place in January and February, driven primarily by unplanned impulse purchases. (Nielsen) 🤔 So my question is do they eat them and then re- buy? or show solid willpower ? 🤔 Do you have favourite Easter eggs to buy? I look for Rolo ones for my husband and toffee eggs for my Mum. 🤔 What do you buy? 🤔 Do you buy Easter Eggs now? #foodanddrink #marketingandadvertising #marketingresearch #retailers 🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣 Liked this post?

Great article on insightful female leadership continues to propel innovation at LP
Happy Valentine's Week! The wine world is so small! When I was interviewing Michelle D. DeFeo for this article, we discovered that we had actually met 20 years ago when she worked in Napa. Now she is one of several powerful women running Champagne Laurent-Perrier, and she has some great food pairings for Valentine's Day!

🎉 Employee Spotlight: Celebrating Maria O’Connor’s’ Appointment as Marketing Director, Americas! 🎉 🎤 Blitz Interview with Maria: Insights into #LifeAtStoli What initially drew you to Stoli, and how has your journey been since joining the company? I had the opportunity to work on STOLI and Elit over 15 years ago when the brands were already considered the benchmark for flavored vodkas and for defining the ultra-premium vodka category. Learning more about the relaunch of STOLI and the company’s expanded portfolio drew me back. My journey this past year has been fast paced and dynamic, offering new challenges and opportunities every day. Can you share a memorable moment or project during your time at Stoli that stands out to you? Recently, our first in person Americas Marketing team meeting was memorable. Getting to know each other and enjoying several meals together on a more informal basis allowed for a bonding opportunity, strengthening the overall camaraderie, and building trust: all important principles to driving collaboration and success of the team. How would you describe the culture and work environment at Stoli? Dynamic entrepreneurial spirit is how I would describe Stoli’s culture and environment. Through creativity, determination and passion, individuals can make impactful decisions daily to drive the business forward. We have a wonderfully talented and diverse group at Stoli. Together, we can achieve remarkable results. In what ways has Stoli supported your professional development and growth? After initially coming onboard as Regional Marketing Leader, I found myself in a unique position to transition into a leadership role which has given me more responsibility and exposure to the Executive Team. Developing the short and long term marketing strategy for our team has been a challenging and rewarding experience, allowing me the opportunity for both professional and personal growth. How does Stoli foster a sense of community among its employees? At Stoli, we are committed to working together, fostering a sense of belonging and cultivating an environment of trust. A recent team building experience reinforced this spirit where we respected different viewpoints and made sure everyone's voice was heard. What advice would you give to someone considering a career at Stoli or entering a similar industry? The wine & spirits industry is a highly rewarding and convivial environment. Have the desire to learn, meet as many people as possible and expose yourself to the various facets of the industry. Commit yourself and have fun. #LifeAtStoli #EmployeeSpotlight #CongratulationsMaria
this is a lesson in brand activation and fidelity to brand positioning all we need is who we are.
With Carnival in the rearview, reflecting on this project is a must, no matter how long and experienced you are in the business there is always room for growth and elevating your brand in the face of adversity. Hennessy sought to capture the essence of Caribbean life and culture while colliding with the energy and personality of Carnival. Guided by the team at Advantage Advertising Keron Nexar Theodore Celestin it took an incredible team of professionals to bring the vision to life. Nikki Hilaire-Roach of Ace Bar services and her amazing team of bartenders and staff kept the cocktails and iconic tumblers on point from the fete to the road, our team of brand ambassadors and Carnival characters were provided by EPA concepts and Tribe. Special thanks to Derek Awai and the DJMA team for the long nights and early mornings always ensuring Hennessy was the spirit of the season
