The Challenge
Since 1895, Hatfield Quality Meats has served the communities around the mid-Atlantic with quality, delicious pork. With the holidays approaching, the team at Hatfield wanted to build awareness of their ham selections and inspire consumers’ festive meal planning.
As a secondary objective, the brand wanted to better understand what means the most to consumers when it comes to purchasing ham.
The Experience
Hatfield Quality Meats asked consumers a variety of questions from what they look for when choosing a ham to what festive time of year they’d likely purchase for entertaining.
After asking what consumers typically do with leftover ham, the brand offered an engaging :27 second, "how-to make" video of a delicious Hatfield Ham, Brie & Apple Grilled Cheese. The video creatively showcased product versatility outside of holiday entertaining.
