How Recipe Inspiration, Paid Media & CPG Partnerships Convert Shoppers into Buyers

Описание: "Independent grocers are fighting for shopper attention in an increasingly digital, inspiration-driven world. Today, more than 70% of consumers begin their meal planning online — not in the circular, not in the store — and whoever captures that moment of inspiration often wins the entire grocery trip. Yet most independent retailers are not capitalizing on one of the most powerful and proven tools for driving trips, bigger baskets, and loyalty: shoppable recipes amplified through paid media and CPG partnerships.

This high-impact panel will bring together digital retail experts, CPG brand leaders, and commerce strategists to demonstrate how recipes — once considered “content” — have become a measurable conversion engine. Attendees will see how retailers are using recipe hubs, QR-enabled in-store displays, and targeted paid media to pull shoppers into a whole-meal mindset that increases basket size by 7+ items, lifts cross-category sales, and strengthens store preference. At the same time, CPG sponsors gain new high-ROI opportunities to integrate products into meal solutions, fund retail media campaigns, and drive household penetration in ways static ads cannot.

For NGA Show attendees, this session delivers actionable, margin-growing strategies that can be implemented by independents of any size. It also reinforces the growing importance of retailer-CPG collaboration, which helps independents unlock funding, media investments, and innovation typically reserved for national chains.
