Migros presents a new overall appearance for its organic line "Migros Bio". The entire product range has been given new and uniform packaging, which will be introduced to stores in stages. In addition, starting this year, products in the Migros Bio line will carry the Bio Suisse bud and thus meet the Bio Suisse guidelines. The agency Thjnk Zurich is responsible for the new campaign and claim.

The organic market is highly competitive. While premium organic brands distinguish themselves through their strict guidelines and quality standards, cheaper labels are moving in from below. The market is becoming increasingly confusing for consumers, also in terms of communication. Migros has recognized that it can make a difference here.

That's why Migros is taking a new approach here. And invents the "Animonials" for Migros Bio: Various animals become advocates of Migros Bio and present their favorite products as representatives of nature. This is how the new claim "Distinguished by nature" is to be paid for.

In the films, the "animonials" can be seen on the set, where they prepare for the shoot. This is intended to give each animonial its own character. The campaign was filmed and shot with real actors. Afterwards, they were transformed into CGI animals in collaboration with Postoffice Amsterdam. According to Thjnk Zurich, it was important to find good actors as well as to cast voices that fit the animals.

For example, a body-conscious panther presents organic spinach, which is good for the conscience and his body. A frog loves organic tea because it helps the environment and its voice. The kangaroo only gets Migros Bio in his bag anyway, and the seal actually loves organic ice cream and not the well-known Migros "seal ice cream".

The launch campaign includes four films, which will be used in various formats on TV, as digital out-of-home and online, other digital advertising media, and five posters and ads.

Zero Waste Fashion is now also available from Naturaline. To this end, Coop and Remei initiated a design competition at the Swiss Textile College to reduce textile waste to a minimum as early as the design stage of a garment. The students' winning outfit is available in the Naturaline spring collection.

What should not change is that Naturaline should continue to stand for "organic & fair" even after 25 years. The entire range is CO2-neutral and every single item is traceable back to the cultivation of the organic cotton. On air now in the brochure, on advertisements, at the POS, in the newsletter and on the Coop City website.
