Meta delivers with a custom restaurant and grocery ad format
Meta has added to its ever-expanding ad roster with the launch of a custom format designed specifically for restaurant and grocery deliveries.
Collaborative Ads have also been employed by Heineken, Garnier and PepsiCo
Inviting consumers not to make a meal of their grocery shopping, the service unites packaged goods brands, delivery firms and food businesses in a convenience-first service. The new format enables participants to raise awareness of their products while simultaneously arranging the delivery, thus lowering purchase friction.
Born out of research suggesting that 57% of shoppers desire to purchase products directly from the site where they are discovered, the commercial tool aims to reach the 22% of global online shoppers who pay for a grocery delivery service.
