through avenues like social media
Discover and innovate the
latest science for new products
in beauty and cosmetics to
introduce to the market

portfolio, e.g., fragrance
Introduce male
spokespeople to strengthen
the mens products
35. Campbell's does have history on their side. The longevity of the brand should
be used in their favor through advertising or tag lines - e.g.,"a trusted family
tradition"
Campbell's needs to be truthful about their struggles and be honest about how
they have worked to change them. They have to demonstrate how they
listened to customers and how they have worked to change their products to
reflect their target - i.e., less sodium, organic ingredients, BPA free packaging,
no aluminum or tin, etc.
The company must follow L'Oreal's strategy and invest in improving its
nutritional profile with better ingredients and innovative technology
It is important to align its social programs with the brand value, promoting the
company’s actions and keeping the target updated throughout the year.

Revitalize commercials by incorporating modern ways of having a hearty bowl of soup, target the emotional benefit consumers will receive such as triggering needs of being energetic, on the move, health conscious, consistency of product
Capture and feature real testimonials in order to assure consumers that the new modernized look and feel still contains great product and value as before
Use of big data and trend analytics to analyze consumer behaviour patterns to better position commercials and other initiatives (to spark that coincidental moment) Eg: I’ve signed up for the gym, I should alter my diet...watch youtube video about different workout routines, next advertisement is of Campbell soup

L’Oreal puts a lot of thought into how to name each of their products. They focus on a core user benefit which encourages multiple purchases within the same product set, as well as in different lines of their suite of cosmetics.
They have managed to find the perfect balance with each product name, and focus on a unique identifier to make each relevant and needed.
They have clear naming hierarchy for their products which emphasize their distinct value and benefit
Infallible – for when you need your make-up to last; this product line stays put throughout the day
Magic – professional grade products created by experts in the industry; the best kept secrets in make up
True Match – a complete make up collection to perfectly match your skin tone
Visible Lift – advanced age reversing makeup
Example: Magic Skin Beautifier B.B. Cream
As the name suggests, this product perfects the skin like magic; it instantly beautifies by self adjusting to your skin tone and comes in 4 shades. It’s a universal everyday foundation.
The other 2 products within the B.B cream family are Magic Skin Beautifier Anti-Redness B.B Cream and Magic Skin Beautifier Anti-Fatigue B.B Cream. A consumer can easily see value in buying more than one B.B. Cream – one for everyday and one for those especially tired days.
Example: Perfecting Base
With this product set, a consumer could easily see the value in purchasing all 3 even though they are essentially all primers. The Magic Perfecting Base and Magic Lumi Light Infusing Primer each have a distinct value proposition – one gives a seamless texture to the skin for make up application while the other gives the skin an overall brightness. The True Mach Lumi Liquid Glow Illuminator highlights the skin in all the right places.
As each of the product sets have distinct benefits purchasing across the portfolio also makes sense – ie. A longwearing lipstick is always a nice to have
Campbell’s Soup come in 6 categories:
Campbell’s Condensed – just add water, heat and serve
Campbell’s Healthy Request – promises no preservatives, ever!
Campbell’s Chunky – stew style soups, heat and serve
Campbell’s Everyday Gourmet – exotic, bold inspired flavours
Campbell’s Ready to Serve – heat and serve
Campbell’s Broths – ready to use as a base or stock for another soup or as an ingredient in another dish.
Chunky Soup is not a very appealing – seems like the soup may make a person overweight!
Everyday Gourmet – is actually going against the purpose of the line by simplifying the name “everyday” is ordinary
Streamlined and modern. Glass bottles, trendy packaging (rose gold), comes with everything you need to make the product work (lumi cushion sponge)
The packaging is very distinct. Even without the name on the bottle you can tell it’s a L’Oreal True Match Bottle
A tin can in itself insinuates non-perishable. As food in cans has longer best before dates, It’s assumed that they contain additives to preserve freshness. The salt/ sodium content is also perceived to be higher.
Tetra packs while more modern, they don’t exactly mean fresh healthy and flavorful.
Take a more user friendly approach to naming while highlighting the whole food ingredients – Campbell’s Fresh Soups, Campbell’s Pure Soups, Campbell’s All Natural Soups, Campbell’s Hearty could be some examples
More appealing clear glass packaging to highlight the real ingredients in the soups – carrot, potatoes, pasta etc. Glass jars are also reusable
Some key things people look for: GMO free, Organic, no preservatives or sulfites, affordable

Every single product from L’oreal has an innovation and a secret fantastic ingredient making it more appealing to the customer. L’oreal Research and Innovation teams provide innovations in formulation with highly effective active ingredients, using chemistry and biotechnologies.
The formulation is in the heart of the company and is perceived positively by the consumer.
So let’s see some of their ingredients and innovations:
In skincare, they are always launching something new and that will make your skin better, like this moisturizer with this PRO-RADIANCE COMPLEX or this face cream with hyaluronic acid, or this skin illuminator with chromatic micro-capsules and vitamin E. All of their products have some sort of amazing ingredient.
Campbell’s reason to believe is to use unique ingredients to deliver delicious soups to families. So, let’s take a look at the traditional Cream of Mushroom that has been sold for over 100 years: one of the first ingredients is oil. Although they are not trans fat, they do contain a lot of saturated fatty acids that’s bad for our health. Then it contains Wheat Flour that can harm individuals with Celiac Disease because it will contain gluten. Also, contains a lot of salt.
The only good thing about it would be the Milk ingredients, but it’s one of the last ingredient in the list.
Although Campbell’s has a healthy product line, only 17% of their 146 current products have some sort of healthy aspect on it (e.g., less sodium, less fat). These lines are still not as healthy as they could be. Campbell’s Healthy Request products have the double of calories, fat and carbohydrates of fresh homemade soups.
So, Even the healthy line it is not THAT healthy.
When we look closer to this healthy request line that they have, we come to the fact that the regular and the healthy one have almost the same ingredients.
North America’s soup giant has broken ranks with anti-GMO labelling forces and announced it’s going to start telling American consumers when its Campbell’s, Pepperidge Farm, Goldfish, Prego and V8 products contain genetically modified ingredients.
Campbell’s is now calling for a mandatory federal labelling standard for foods and beverages derived from GMOs and promises to “withdraw from all efforts led by coalitions and groups opposing such measures.” And, after spending millions fighting labelling laws in California and Washington state as part of an anti-labelling coalition warning consumers that prices would skyrocket, Campbell’s now says prices won’t be affected by the policy shift.
The company says that if a federal labelling regime isn’t established in a “reasonable” amount of time, it’s prepared to label its U.S. products on its own. The bad news: Campbell’s hasn’t committed to labelling products sold in Canada. A rep says, “At this stage, the mandatory GMO labelling proposal is for Campbell products sold in the U.S. only.”
Under its condensed soup cans, you’ll find this justification: “In Canada, approximately 90 per cent of all canola, corn, soybean and sugar beet crops are grown from genetically modified seeds. Farmers have been using these seeds for more than 20 years as they reduce costs and improve yields.”
So why the change of heart south of the border? Besides its aversion to patchy stateside GMO laws, Campbell’s says it’s now operating “with a ‘consumer first’ mindset,” responding to changing public opinion on GMOs. Some 92 per cent of Americans support labelling of GMOs.
At this point, 64 countries have some sort of mandatory GMO labelling policy. Canada’s is voluntary.
Since 1991, the objective of the program is to enable these women to identify and set goals for themselves and their families, to learn techniques and develop strategies for the attainment of these goals.

Packaging
Most of packaging is recyclable.
Reduced can thickness saving 1,205 tons of steel per yeas.
Also reduced the amount of PET material in Beverage bottles by 33%
Energy
By installing a condensing economizer we’ve reduced GGE 2,200 metric tons per year.
Procurement
Every year more than 5 million kg of fresh carrots, 6 million kg of fresh potatoes and 2 million kg of fresh mushrooms are sourced within 100 miles of Toronto.
There is virtually no mention about this programs in Campbell’s Social Media
Each year a variety of events are run to raise funds and awareness of hunger in the local community.
This program helps individuals involved with Daily Bread Food Bank to get the training they need to find careers in the food service industry. Among other things, trainees learn how to use equipment, ingredient preparation, baking and hot and cold meal preparation.
One million pounds of wholesome food was donated to food banks across the country in 2011.
Nourish was developed to help to address the need for nutritious, shelf-stable meals. It is a complete meal, with a full serving of three food groups delivering vegetables, fibre and at least 18 g of protein. Each 425 g can has an easy-to-open lid, 24-month shelf-life, and doesn’t require the addition of water, making it an ideal solution for food banks. Since the launch of Nourish in February 2011, Campbell Canada has donated more than 300,000 cans to food banks across the, as well to northern Canadian communities, and Haiti/Dominican Republic.
The last official donation information is from 2011. There is no updated information on Social Medias in the past year.
