his fall,
the SKIPPY®
brand launched a new
multi-faceted regional ad
campaign, the brand’s first in more
than five years and the very first
under Hormel Foods ownership.
After undergoing global positioning research for the SKIPPY®
brand, Hormel Foods discovered
that consumers across the world
believe peanut butter is one thing:
simple fun. This led the company
to use the beloved SKIPPY®
brand to spread to peanut butterlovers everywhere. The simple
joy of eating peanut butter will
be brought to life across various
brand platforms, from marketing
to product innovations and in
the new multimedia advertising
campaign.
The SKIPPY® YIPPEE™ ad
campaign features interactive
social components on peanutbutter.com, an online “Fun
Button” and a 30-second
“Fun Factory” television
ad highlighting how the
fun gets into the peanut
butter. Throughout the
campaign, fans can use the
hashtag #SKIPPYYippee
to share their own
yippee moments and expressions
on social media, which will be
tracked using hashtags and clicks,
quantifying the increased fun
that the SKIPPY® brand brings to
consumers.
“Since acquiring the SKIPPY®
product portfolio in January
2013, Hormel Foods has taken
special care to cultivate and grow
the brand; we wanted to hone
in on the fun of enjoying peanut
butter,” said Luis Marconi, vice
president marketing, Grocery
Products. “The SKIPPY®
YIPPEE™ campaign is a fantastic
way to showcase the brand’s new
direction and revitalization under
Hormel Foods.”
The website and advertisements
are the first in a phased campaign,

with additional components to be
introduced in the coming months,
including a platform for usergenerated peanut butter art and an
interactive online game.
• Website and “Fun Button”:
The new “Fun Button” is hosted
on the updated SKIPPY® brand
desktop and mobile site, peanutbutter.com, as well as in rich
media and mobile iAds. Each time
the button is pressed, users receive
a random expression yippee from
the online content library, such as
an animated GIF, short video or
sound effect.
• “Fun Factory” ad: The “Fun
Factory” TV ad shows how
the SKIPPY® brand becomes the
fun peanut butter. As factory
worker Penny examines the peanuts, she chooses those with the
most personality to go into a jar
of SKIPPY® peanut butter, while
the un-fun peanuts are sent to a
boring office party.
Additional interactive digital
elements are planned through
2015, including the opportunity to
create one-of-a-kind peanut butter
“art” and a challenge to fans and
friends to play in a “Fun Factory”
’’
online game. The SKIPPY®
YIPPEE™ campaign and the “Fun
Button” will be promoted through
ad units appearing across a broad
mix of online media. n

[6] inside Hormel Foods | www.hormelfoods.com
he makers of the
Jennie-O® brand recently
added a robust holiday
section to the brand website,
jennieo.com. This extension
to the website features five full
thanksgiving meal menus, tools to
help consumers prepare for their
celebrations and videos walking
through different cooking and
preparation methods for whole
turkeys.
Consumers can find the recipes
for a full table spread on the website in the following themes:
• Classic Thanksgiving;
• Southwestern Thanksgiving;
• Gluten-Free Thanksgiving;
• Easy Thanksgiving; and
• Modern Thanksgiving.
“We chose these five meal
themes based on digital and
social media insights,” said
Shelly Venenga, associate product
manager. “Our research showed
that consumers start planning for
Thanksgiving as early as July and
are often looking for full-menu
solutions.”
The holiday section will feature
a variety of quick videos that illustrate the proper techniques for
preparing, cooking and carving
whole turkeys. In addition, the
website provides calculators to
help consumers determine the
correctly-sized turkey for their
celebration and when to begin
thawing the turkey.
Cooking instructions and
thawing time are the most frequent questions consumers pose
to the Hormel Foods consumer
response department during the
holiday season. In the week before
Thanksgiving, consumer response
receives around 3,000 consumer
contacts, a 30 percent increase
over an average week. n

65 years, Hormel® Mary Kitchen® hash has been a
family-favorite breakfast food. Hormel Foods is preparing to
reinvigorate the brand in 2015 to capitalize on the current popularity of hash.
“We are seeing hash everywhere today. There are restaurants whollydevoted to hash, and it is frequently shown on popular cooking shows,”
said Matt Cizik, product manager, Grocery Products. “Hormel® Mary
Kitchen® hash is an on-trend product that we see as the next big thing
in the center of the store.”
In 2015, the company plans to refocus efforts on the brand, starting
with consumer research.
“Research will help us understand our brand equity, as we seek to
innovate new Hormel® Mary Kitchen® hash products for millennial
consumers and lower income channels,” Cizik said. “We are also going
to be partnering with Hell’s Kitchen in Minneapolis, Minn., for insights
on product development.”
Hash is a traditional breakfast food that is high in protein and each
serving of Hormel® Mary Kitchen® hash contains between 18-21 grams
of protein. Recent research from the University of Texas suggests that
consumers should

HORMEL YOUNG PROFESSIONALS ENTERPRISE
ormel
Young
Professionals Enterprise
(HYPE) is the first
employee resource group (ERG)
to establish an ambassador program, which originated in order to
drive involvement outside of the
Corporate Office (Austin, Minn.).
The program designates employees
in different regions to advocate for
HYPE and lead events and activities
in that area.
In May this year, five locations
were selected to participate in the
first phase of the program. In just
a few months, the ambassadors
connected with other locations in
their geographical area, held various events for coworkers, families
and friends, and more than doubled
the HYPE membership throughout
their regions.
These locations were selected
based on current HYPE membership and spread throughout the
country. A monthly conference
call is held with all ambassadors
to stay informed with what each
area is organizing around the
country and generate ideas for
future events and learnings.
“The HYPE ambassadors
have accomplished a great deal
in just a few months,” said
Adam Stange, senior general
accountant, and recruitment
and retention chair for HYPE.
“They have held various events
and even raised $480 for the
Kiss the Pig for CARE fundraiser
competition to support HYPE
at the Corporate Office. What
the ambassadors have been able
to accomplish in such a short
period of time has been truly
remarkable!”

of snack trays is

Last year, Hormel Foods

In addition to rebranding the

the same five-ounce pouches that
are used in the party trays. This
provides the plants operational efficiencies and simplified production
management.
Hormel Gatherings™ snack trays

Three Hormel Foods products chosen
for the 2014 Editors’ Picks List
E
ach year,
the editorial team at Progressive Grocer chooses the best
new products introduced during the previous year for their Editors’
Picks List. This year, 600 products were submitted to the editors
and judged on innovation, taste and value; 136 were chosen as winners.
According to the article, this year’s Editors’ Picks products were trendy,
convenient and tasted great.
The list featured three Hormel Foods products: Herdez® bowls, Lucille’s
Smokehouse Bar-B-Q® beef tri-tip from Farmer John (Vernon, Calif.) and
SKIPPY® singles.
Here is what the editors had to say:
Herdez® bowls
MegaMex Foods (Orange, Calif.) brings authentic Latin flavor profiles to its
Herdez® branded line of meal bowls, a fresh take on frozen microwavable
meals. They’re simple and quick to prepare for lunch or dinner. We particularly liked the carnitas and charro beans, and the pork chile Colorado. Also
available are beef barbacoa, chicken chipotle with Spanish rice, chicken
mole with cilantro rice, chicken tinga with spanish rice, pork al pastor, and
pork chile verde.
Lucille’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Que® beef tri-tip from Farmer John
Low-and-slow taste from heat-and-eat meat? Crazy but true, and this succulent beef tri-tip from Farmer John, co-branded with the California-based
Lucille’s Smokehouse restaurant chain, delivers on barbeque taste
with the bonus of convenient prep. The fully cooked USDA Choice
beef tri-tip is seasoned and reputedly smoked for hours, for a tender, moist and flavorful pre-sliced product.
SKIPPY® singles
Putting a consumer favorite in a more convenient format makes
this product a winner for us. These SKIPPY® single-serve cups are
great for on-the-go snacking, portion control, and easy dipping or
spreading. The product comes in clear resealable canisters of six
individually sealed 1.5-ounce cups. SKIPPY® singles are available
in two varieties: creamy peanut butter and natural
creamy peanut butter spread, the latter of which is
100 percent natural and free of preservatives, artificial flavors or colors. n
