Avocados From Mexico Invites Shoppers to Celebrate the Delicious Duo of Guacamole and Tacos with New Guac N’ Tacos Shopper Program
Guac and tacos is a combination that’s #AlwaysGood and in honor of National Guacamole Day (Sept. 16) and National Taco Day (Oct. 4), Avocados From Mexico (AFM) is inviting shoppers to celebrate the delicious duo while helping grow consumption and demand around these key occasions. The number one selling brand of avocados in the U.S. is also the leading avocado brand available in the fall1 and AFM is kicking off the season with its first ever Guac N’ Tacos shopper program. The new program highlights the combo of guac and tacos with thematic in-store displays, digital media and coupons – shoppers can save 75 cents when purchasing avocados at select grocery stores. Branded point of sale materials outside the produce aisle will also remind shoppers to add avocados to their tacos in more than 5,000 stores nationwide. The program will be in-store beginning Sept. 5 through Oct. 9, 2022.
Tacos represent the majority of Mexican handheld eating occasions, yet less than 2 percent of the Mexican handheld occasions include avocados2, creating an opportunity for AFM to reinforce the delicious combination of guac and tacos.
“Because guacamole and Mexican dishes represent the top two volume driving opportunities for avocados, National Guacamole Day and National Taco Day are the perfect occasions for AFM to encourage shoppers to purchase avocados,” said Stephanie Bazan, Vice President of Shopper and Trade Marketing at Avocados From Mexico. “Avocados From Mexico always bring good taste and good times, and this program makes it easy and fun to add them to Guac N’ Taco celebrations.”
