Food advertising poorly-targeted
Article Abstract:
Television food advertising is badly targeted according to a report on fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) by CIA Medianetwork. Food advertisers do not focus on core consumers, and the report shows a steady fall in the money invested in advertising. The largest spender in the cereal sector was Unilever, and in the margarine and low fat spread sector Van den Bergh increased its spend by 40%. Most companies have reduced their coffee and tea sector advertising budgets.
