With Ikea and Leo Burnett claiming the Grand Prix for the “Learn Ikea” campaign, the Shopper Innovation Awards recognized the best shopper campaigns at the Hilton Toronto on Tuesday. The presentation, during which 40 awards were distributed, followed strategy and Match Marketing’s two-day Shopper Marketing Forum.
The Ikea campaign, which introduced Winnipeggers to the store via interactive displays, quizzes and educational info, also picked up three Golds in Custom Retail, Integration and Original Idea.
Leo Burnett also won Gold for a few other clients: James Ready’s “50% Awesomer Coasters” picked up two Golds in the categories of Small budget, big impact and In-store Engagement, and Raising the Roof’s “Repackaging Help” won Golds in CSR and Packaging.
Canadian Tire, with agency Tribal Worldwide, was another big winner, taking home four trophies: a Gold, Silver and two Bronzes for its digital catalogue. The agency also picked up three Silvers with McDonald’s Canada for the “FrapTap.”
Magnum and Mosaic Sales Solutions took home a Gold for Best Global Adaptation and a Silver for In-Store Engagement with their “Pleasure Store Toronto,” while Sport Chek and agency North Strategic rounded out the Gold winners for the retailer’s social media-friendly flyer.
