ALDI Thanksgiving: Turning value into a national consumer story.

The challenge:

How do we reinforce ALDI's value proposition during one of the most competitive food-shopping seasons of the year while giving media a compelling reason to cover the brand?

My role:

Supported the PR strategy and execution, connecting the consumer value story with media outreach, executive visibility, and cross-functional campaign planning.

The approach:

  • Identified the consumer hook: an affordable Thanksgiving meal for 10.

  • Coordinated with internal teams to align messaging and campaign execution.

  • Supported media outreach and an exclusive interview opportunity with ALDI's COO.

  • Connected earned media with social, executive, and owned-channel content.
