Execution

Baked beans feature on the front of the can, reinforcing appetite appeal and the high quality food credentials associated with the brand, while the back highlights the product’s nutritional properties.

'Baked’ was removed from the name to become ‘Heinz Beanz’ creating relevance for a 21st century audience, while also strengthening the link between the product and the slogan ‘Beanz Meanz Heinz’ that has been used in advertising campaigns by the brand since 1967.

Outcome

From a value perspective, the Heinz Beanz brand has increased 11.2% (52 weeks year on year).
