Piggly Wiggly To Offer CGs New Digital Ad Program

Piggly Wiggly will soon offer consumer goods manufacturers a new digital advertising program intended to simultaneously enhance the consumer experience.

The grocer will become one of the first retailers to adopt Mercatus’ Digital Advertising solution, which aims to elevate the shopper experience through relevant product advertisements and discoverability opportunities.

Piggly Wiggly, which has teamed with Mercatus since 2017, is also extending its partnership for Mercatus’ Integrated Commerce platform, aiding the grocer in offering curbside pickup services at 27 of its 96 brick-and-mortar locations.

Its Digital Engagement solutions provide Piggly Wiggly with branded online shopping experiences across web, tablet and mobile devices, while the Digital Commerce solutions enable store managers to update information like product availability and promotional offers.

“Throughout this relationship, our shoppers have enjoyed an advanced and reliable e-commerce experience, all under the Piggly Wiggly name they love,” said Bill Bell, director of information technology, Piggly Wiggly Midwest, in a statement. “Whether it is improving its existing solutions or adding new capabilities to its platform, Mercatus is constantly innovating. We look forward to continuing our shared e-commerce vision and partnership to the benefit of Piggly Wiggly’s valued customers.”
