Other objectives:
- Provide comprehensive information about the benefits of organic farming, in particular in
relation to environmental protection, animal welfare, maintenance of the countryside and
development in rural areas
- Encourage retailers and restaurants to sell organic products, encourage producers to switch
to organic production methods
Strategy:
Slogan: "Ich will BIO"
Campaign focuses on the n° 1 reason for consumers to buy organic, which is the feeling that
eating organic is good for them. The campaign uses this motivation of the consumers and
plays with it. The slogan offers a high potential for identification with the campaign.
The other benefits of organic farming will also be communicated but will be secondary to the
main slogan.
Target group(s):
 Consumers in general and specific subgroups of consumers as young households,
adolescents and consumers 50+
 Opinion multipliers (journalists, star-chefs)
 Distributors (specialised retailers, supermarkets, wholesalers, caterers, canteens,
restaurants)
 Teachers
Themes:
 Basic principles of organic farming
 Additional benefits of organic production methods (climate protection, environmental
protection, maintenance of rural countryside, animal welfare)
 No GMO used in organic farming
 Nutritional value of organic products
 Consumer security and controls in organic farming
 The different organic labels (EU and national)
6
Aspects covered:
quality
safety of food
specific production methods
nutritional values
health impacts
labelling
animal welfare standards
respect for the environment
EU system for organic products
Messages to be conveyed:
 Basic principles of organic farming (Regulation 834/2007, no genetically modified
products, no synthetic phytopharmaceuticals, etc.)
 Production methods, availability, labelling etc.
 Additional benefits of organic production methods (sustainable agricultural methods,
environmental protection)
 Nutritional value of organic products (fewer remnants of chemical products, smaller intake
of chemicals through food)
 Consumer security and controls in organic farming (traceability, EU wide control
mechanisms and the safety of 'international' organic products)
 Labelling: The EU organic logo guarantees that the products comply with strict EU wide
production rules and are subject to rigorous controls.
Core messages vary according to product concerned, for example:
 Meat and poultry: animal welfare and genetically non-modified feed
 Fruit & vegetables: no chemical/synthetical phytopharamceuticals and no easily
dissolvable mineral fertilizers used.

RESULT OF THE ELIGIBILITY AND QUALITY EXAMINATION
Remarks:
The programme is the continuation of running programme 2010-IM-502-AT that will end on
23/09/2013. Overall, the new proposal constitutes the third continuation of the Austrian

Programme eligible:
Yes/No
11
100
First observations to be communicated to MS:
In application of Article 8(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 501/2008, the programmes
submitted shall contain sufficient detail to comply with the applicable rules and enable their
cost/benefit ratio to be evaluated. The Member State and the proposing organisation are
invited to provide the following additional information:
Proposing organisation
The Member State states that the proposing organisation Marketing GesmbH is a private and
not a public body (page 17 of Member State Memorandum, “Erklärung zur Bewertung und
Identifizierung”). The Member State is asked to confirm this opinion basing its answer on the
criteria a), b) and c) of article 1(9) of Directive 2004/18/EC.
Objectives
The proposal states that market penetration for seasonal products should have risen for 50%
of seasonal products which are part of a specific basket at the end of the programme period.
Please also indicate by how much market penetration is supposed to rise compared to 2012
figures (pages 46, 47).
Reference values/points of departure also need to be defined for the objectives aiming to
improve awareness regarding organic products, controls and labelling (Ziele betreffend
Erhöhung des Informationsgrades/Verbesserung des Kenntnisstandes der Verbraucher).
Methods
Please provide more information about the IGF Institute and the studies they perform on
behalf of AMA.
Actions
Action 5.7.1 Bio-Aktionstage:
A more detailed breakdown of costs is required for the unit costs of milk samples
"Milchpackerl" (0,33 €). In particular, it should be confirmed that the milk will be purchased
at production costs.
The unit cost per T-Shirt (13 €) are disproportionately high compared to unit costs in similar
campaigns. Alternative ways of production should be taken into account if possible.
Action 5.7.2 Print campaign:
The budget table on page 30 is not consistent with the media plan provided. The overall sums
under “Summe Euro” are correct but the columns “Anzahl” and “Kosten/Einheit Euro” need
to be adapted as there will be more than 52 print ads over the 3 years.
Action 5.7.10 and 5.7.11 POS:
Which POS will be targeted? Please provide names of targeted POS.
Can you confirm our understanding that the organic products offered for tasting will be a
balanced mix of products from several EU Member States?
Action 5.7.12 Events
The accommodation costs per night per participant should be kept in line with the ceilings
defined in the standard contract under point Annex III, B. point 2.2 (120 € per night for
programmes on the internal market).
Visuals
On the visuals, change the slogan from “Ich will Bio…aber nur, wenn’s streng kontrolliert
wird” to “Ich will Bio...weil es streng kontrolliert wird”.
Adapt the first part of the text in smaller font below the slogan as follows: „Bio-Lebensmittel
sind das Beste, was die Natur hervorbringt. Das wird garantiert mit dem EU-Biologo und dem
12
AMA-Biozeichen. Dann unterliegen sie nämlich den strengen Auflagen der EUBioverordnung. [...] .“

individual approach to target groups of the program. Compared to the current project, this
program will not only focus on the market of Czech Republic, but on Slovak Republic as well
(mainly because of mutual trade in the commodity milk and dairy products, ie. exports from
the Czech Republic to Slovakia) with the ratio 71% of communication activities in the Czech
republic vs. 29% in Slovakia. In the field of mass media attention will be paid to the
following communication channels: print media (print) - primarily nationwide lifestyle titles
(woman, families with children); internet (online) – again primarily lifestyle servers and
special lifestyle section of news webs. This main channels will be at appropriate occasions
supplemented by activities in other mass media, especially nationwide TVs and radio stations.
Use of other mass-media (eg. outdoor / billboards) is not planned.
Use of mass media channels will be completed with personal communication with
journalists, experts, programme's ambassadors and also personal communication with final
consumers (or general public) via presentations at fairs and special activity “Milk Quests” for
schools. At the same time use of own communication platforms, i.e. program web portals
(both in CZ and SK) and selective communication on social networks will be performed.
Previous programme
The proposal contains a description of the currently running programme (till 25/8/2013) to be
continued. The PO would like to be able to continue the programme without a major
interruption in the implementation between the two projects in order to maintain the observed
recovery of this fragile market especially in the Czech market.
The execution rate of the currently running programme is at around 93% of the budget and its
general implementation has not shown any relevant problems. Among others the effectiveness
of the PR activities is estimated as very high, as the return on investment in this activity is
threefold in terms of achieved presence in the media. The previous programme White Plus
from 2010 is reckoned to have had, even with a limited budget, a very important impact on
the market situation by halting the threat of the consumption drop, and in the second phase by
allowing to observe a visible recovery of the consumption growth for most of the dairy
products in Czech Republic.
The objective of the currently running programme is to increase by "up to 3%" the
consumption of dairy products. According to the data shown in the market study in the first
part of the proposal (p.23), if data from the Czech Statistical Office in the period 2010-2012
(2012 are the last available and are still an estimate) are taken into account we observe the
following:
- increase of milk consumption by 2%
- increase of other dairy products consumption by 2%
- increase of cheeses consumption by 1,5%
- increase of butter consumption by 6%
16
- stable consumption of white cheeses;
- drop in consumption of dairy conserves by 20%
The biggest part in the overall demand is made up of "milk" (around 50% weight in quantity),
"other products" (30% weight), "cheeses" (12% weight) and "butter" (5% weight). Taking
into account the proportional weight of these products, the overall increase in quantities of the
Czech dairy consumption in the observed period can be assessed at approximately 2%.
Therefore the programme till now has achieved to a significant extent the assumed objective
of up to 3% increase. Furthermore if the final data for 2013 confirmed the growing trend, an
impact of 3% increase may de facto be reached at the moment of the conclusion of the
campaign.
Moreover it has to be noted as further advantage for the previous campaign is that this
positive trend takes place in very unfavorable market conditions:
- increase of VAT on food products from 9% in 2010 till 14% in 2012, and further to 15% in
2013,
- unexpectedly severe economic crisis in Czech Republic with perspectives of recovery only
appearing in the very final part of the programme,
This all adds to the permanent general difficulty in keeping stable or increasing liquid milk
consumption due also to fierce competition from the soft-drinks industry targeting younger
people and "bad PR" campaigns against milk appearing regularly especially in the internet
that should be counteracted by constant building of a positive image of dairy products.
Concerning the objectives, it should also be borne in mind that the "overview of the situation"
in the Guidelines in 501/2008 for this sector recognizes the difficult conditions of this often
stagnating market, and the mere aim to stop the decline of consumption can even be a
possible objective in more saturated markets.
The new proposal includes the Slovak market which is a logical choice in the case of a Czech
programme due to very tight historical, cultural, linguistic and trade links between these two
countries and where potential for growth of dairy products is even higher due to lower per
capita consumption.
Target group(s) :
Program target groups – common for CZ and SK:
- women (housekeepers), 18 to 55 y.o.
- children and youth, 6 to 18 y.o.
Themes :
* milk and dairy products are delicious with a wide range of applications both for drinking
and for cooking (both in childhood and later in life for the whole family)
* milk and dairy products are an integral and important part of a balanced and varied diet,
especially with the addition of other important categories (eg fruits and vegetables)
* milk and dairy products have specific characteristics and nutritional value, which can be
hardly substituted by other food products
* each individual consumer can find an appropriate category in the milk and milk products
that to be included in his/her diet (milk, fermented milk products, cheese, etc.) with attention
to his current state of health and any restriction
17
Aspects covered :
quality;
food safety;
nutrition issues;
health issues;
labelling;
environmental protection;
image of EU’s products;
Messages to be conveyed :
* milk and dairy products are suitable for daily life in modern times and environment of 21st
century and can be consumed in various forms
* milk and dairy products have specific nutritional value, which may be more beneficial for
certain ages (younger, middle-aged)
* on the markets in the Czech and Slovak Republics, there is a range of dairy products
suitable for different consumers and different consumer situations for different tastes (even
taking into account any individual nutrient limitation)
* there are milk and dairy products with different fat content, each of which may be more
appropriate for certain consumers
Actions, including their scope/volume and a provisional timetable:
Czech Republic
1. Media and public relations (target group of women 18-55 years of age, children and youth
6-18 years old)
2. Activities on the Internet (target group of 18-55 women and children and youth 6-18 years
old)
3. Milk gastrofestival "MilkParade" (target group of 18-55 women and children and youth 618 years old)
4. Presence in exhibitions / fairs (target group of women 18-55 years of age)
5. Project for school "Journey to milk cows wandering" (target group of children and
adolescents 6-18 years)
Slovak Republic
6. Media relations and PR (target group of women 18-55 years of age)
7. Communication activities on the Internet (target group of 18-55 women and children and
youth 6-18 years old)
8. Presence in exhibitions / fairs (target group of women 18-55 years of age)
18
Anticipated impact:
The expected impact of the program is primarily an increase in the consumption of milk
and milk products by 1,5% in the Czech Republic and by 0,6% in Slovakia in the threeyear horizon. In financial terms this is more than € 16.400.000 overall market increase.
At the same time the program should create a positive media space and ensure positive media
coverage of milk consumption in the minimal amount of CZK 60 million / EUR 2,4 million
for the program (together for Phase I-III).
To correct the attitude of the Czech and Slovak public to milk and dairy products in terms of
their more positive perception and awareness within defined target groups would also be a
secondary and supporting objective with a 200% increase goal.
The campaign will use methods of measuring the sales effect by using data from the national
statistical offices.
For the evaluation of the awareness increase surveys will be used - conducted at the beginning
of Phase 1 and end of 3 with comparison of results, by an independent body.

RESULT OF THE ELIGIBILITY AND QUALITY EXAMINATION
Remarks:
In application of Article 4(1) and 4(3) of Commission Regulation 501/2008, all information
and/or promotion messages passed on to consumers and other target groups under
programmes shall be based on the intrinsic qualities of the product concerned or its
characteristics. Any reference to the effects on health of consuming the products concerned
20
shall be based on generally accepted data. Messages referring to such effects must be
acceptable to the national authority responsible for public health.
In application of Article 7(1) of Council Regulation 3/2008, the Member States concerned
shall examine the suitability of proposals for programmes and shall verify their conformity
with the said Regulation, the guidelines drawn up and the relevant specifications. They shall
also check that the programme offers value for money.
In application of Article 8(2) of Commission Regulation 501/2008, the programmes submitted
shall contain sufficient detail to comply with the applicable rules and enable their cost/benefit
ratio to be evaluated.
In application of Article 19(1) of Regulation 501/2008 an annual report must contain an
evaluation of the results obtained.
However:
1. The selection of the implementing body was based on contacting directly (by the
Proposing Organisation, by a mailed letter) three companies in the market with good
references, and having a good reputation in implementing in the past programmes similar
to the one proposed hereby, and in particular no publication of the call for tenders was
made in the website of the Proposing Organisation and/or of the Czech Paying Agency
SZIF – the competent national authority is invited to give an additional confirmation that
the procedure was competitive; failure to provide convincing proof that the procedure was
competitive will have to result in considering this procedure as void and in non-retaining
the programme for co-financing;
2. In relation to the above remark, it should also be additionally confirmed whether the
Proposing Organisation (which has a wide, pan-sectoral role in the Czech market) is a
body governed by public law or not, if yes a procedure as foreseen by art. 13 (2) would
have needed to be applied for the selection of the implementing body and in that case the
selection procedure actually applied would not be appropriate and this would result in
non-retaining the programme for co-financing;
3. Concerning the sales objectives, which are expressed correctly in a quantified manner for
three types of dairy product (milk, cheese, yogurts) where each of them is going to
achieve the expected increase by 1,5% in Czech Republic and 0,6% in Slovakia, please
indicate in a clear way the average value that is used for one kg of dairy product (all subtypes taken together in one average), and the way this value is obtained – this in order to
ascertain the correctness of the very good value for money calculation that is provided in
the project;
4. Please give your position concerning a possible increase of the objective for the Slovak
market – otherwise please explain why an increase of more than 0,6% of the three dairy
product sub-groups is not feasible, especially that the Slovak market has higher potential
for growth than the Czech one due to lower per capita consumption;
5. Concerning the secondary awareness objective of the programme (increase by 200%),
please provide more information about the evaluation method of this objective showing
that it is a justified and realistic objective – its level is as compared to most of other
programmes in which a measurement of awareness takes place unusually high, the
standard levels of awareness increase range between 10% and 50%; a steep 200% increase
could be achieved for some observations, but the dramatic lack of awareness should be in
that case presented already at the stage of the proposal and not just through a pre-test at
the beginning of the campaign; moreover please provide an assurance that the sample
sizes used in the evaluation method of this supporting goal will be high enough for
21
statistical conclusions (n=100 in each target group, expected return ratio of questionnaires
of just at least 30%);
6. Messages containing any potential reference to health effects of the consumption of milk
and dairy products have to be used carefully in the programme, being always accepted by
the competent health authorities in Czech Republic and Slovakia; moreover, as foreseen
by the guidelines for dairy products in the Regulation 501/2008, without prejudice to art.
4(3), information on nutritional qualities of milk and milk products must be based on
generally accepted scientific data and fulfill the requirements laid down in Directive
200/13/EC.
7. Please foresee in the messages to be applied in the programme in the course of its
implementation more references to the European added value and European high
standards of the products to be promoted, especially in the context of the new shape of the
Common Agricultural Policy starting from 2014, where for instance an emphasis on
greening in agriculture is put forward; moreover, for a futher improvement of the EU
dimension of the programme, you may also consider using a website with the ".eu"
extension which for instance may lead to the foreseen ".cz" and ".sk" websites, please
consult http://www.ambitionhasanaddress.eu/cs;
8. It is observed that the overall budget of the programme (p. 139) doesn't foresee any costs
for the evaluation of the results of the programme – regardless of it, please take in due
account that a robust measurement of the results is a mandatory element of the
programme's execution;
Moreover:
9. On p. 85, 86, 88 and 121-123 – please provide a timetable of the work of the professional
experts and ambassadors of the campaign, with an indication of the hourly rates for their
services;
10. Please explain how the target groups will be actively encouraged to visit and to "like" the
Facebook page (p. 94);
11. In the following actions please confirm that any dairy products for it coming from the
associated producers in the Czech Republic will be delivered at factory prices: press
conferences and actions for journalists (p. 85, 86, 88), MilkParade (p. 103-104), fairs (p.
110-111);
12. Please note that the budget and plan on p. 139-140 in the Czech part of the programme are
presented in English language, moreover it would be recommended to indicate full names
of the actions in the budget on p. 139.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAMME :
Objective(s):
1. Encourage to higher consumption of European seasonal fruit and vegetables
2. Reinforce ‘Season’ as a well-recognised brand amongst consumers
Strategy :
The proposed programme has been designed in accordance with current market trends and the
findings of the evaluations of the former two programmes run by GAU and part-financed by
the EU1. Current market studies show that families with children (main target group) spend a
declining share of their household budget on fruit and vegetables, which implies that they do
not consider this as indispensable ingredients in the everyday meal. The main focus of the
coming programme will therefore be to make fruit and vegetables a part of the everyday life;
to make it a habit. The programme strategy is to blend fruit and vegetables into the target
group’s existing purchasing and consumption habits rather than seeking to change habits as
such. The ‘everyday’ will be the focal pointof all communication so that the target group can
easily relate to and will be susceptible to the themes and messages conveyed. The activities
25
will approach and challenge the target group holistically: families with children need simple
practical advice, information and inspiration communicated as “easy, tasty and non-expensive
solutions”. As such communication comes to be based on the families with children
themselves and come to be relevant with regard to their needs, challenges, habits and
everyday circumstances. Consequently, and in comparison with the former Season
programmes, activities such as festivals, exhibitions, fairs and the Strawberry Award, will be
omitted from the programme, as the priority and budget allocation will be primarily for
activities that will have a direct effect on the everyday and the moment of shopping. The
programme takes a systematic approach to cooperation with stakeholders whom the target
group interacts with in their daily activity of buying and preparing food. The actions proposed
consist of collaboration with the discount retail sector and its existing media (Action 2) as
well as, and to target children in particular, collaborations with schools and already existing
courses on food and cooking (Action 3). In addition, a range of information and
communication activities will function as a backbone for the entire programme and as
activities supporting the implementation of the two other actions (Action 1).
Target group(s) :
1. Families with children – including children (aged 11-14 years) in schools as an additional
way to reach the families.
2. Home economics teachers as professionals and nutritionists working on a daily basis with
children in schools (secondary target group)
Themes :
1. The importance of including fresh fruit and vegetables in the family’s daily meals – and
doing that is less expensive than most people would think
2. Taste, enjoyment, delight and convenience are additional key words integrated into the
main message to be conveyed.
Aspects covered :
quality
safety of food
specific production methods
nutritional values
health impacts
labelling
animal welfare standards
respect for the environment
image of Community products
Community systems for PDO/PGI/TSG
organic products
graphic symbols for remote regions
wines with a protected designation of origin or a protected
geographical indication, wines with an indication of the wine grape
variety.
Messages to be conveyed :
1. “Everyday food with fruit, vegetables, and joy”
26
Actions, including their scope/volume and a provisional timetable:
1.
ACTION 1. SUPPORT ACTIONS
The action covers activities related to communication and media and will work as a focal
point for the entire programme and as activities supporting the implementation of the two
other actions. All communication will be tailored so that it fits the everyday needs and
interests of the chosen target group.
1.1. Season magazine: will remain the main supporting medium. The number of
magazine releases will be increased to five times per programme year combined
with an increase to 400.000 printed copies per publication.
1.2. Website (www.saesonforgodsmag.dk) and mobile site: will be redesigned to
accommodate to a greater extent families with children and their everyday
situations. An entry point for home economics teachers from where to download
teaching material will be added to the existing site. The website will be updated
continuously.
1.3. Newsletters: the two existing newsletters will remain; i.e. a monthly newsletter
and a weekly one. To enhance usability for the target group, the weekly newsletter
with green recipes will be released just before the weekend where most families
plan and shop for the coming week.
1.4. Season Facebook page: will be used to establish close dialogue with the target
group; raise brand awareness and credibility for Season, and to involve the target
group and create ambassadors for the programme. Updates and comments will be
posted on the page several times a week.
1.5. Online advertising and search marketing: will communicate call-to-action with a
view to encouraging consumers in general and the target group in particular to
visit the programme website. The main success criterion for the online campaign is
to drive cost-effective quality traffic to the site. A detailed media plan specifies
websites on which banner advertising is foreseen.
1.6. PR activities: will include press releases together with efforts aimed at bloggers
and will operate in two tracks, an expert track as factual information and
credibility are the best means to shift attitudes; and a product track to provide
inspiration and advice. 10 press releases per year are scheduled to target written
and broadcasted media and 3 campaigns aimed at 3-5 selected and relevant
bloggers.
Projected schedule: The provisional timetable for the programme indicates the projected
schedule of each of the above activities. At the end of each programme year, the proposed
implementing body (Umwelt) will assess and adapt the communication strategy to ensure
synergy and the best use of the human and financial resources available.
2.
ACTION 2. COLLABORATION WITH THE DISCOUNT SECTOR
Families with children do the majority of their everyday shopping in discount stores and
hence it is in discounters – and via their media – that the target group is present and can be
met face-to-face. Therefore, Season’s existing cooperation with traditional supermarkets will
be reduced to displays and the regular distribution of the magazine, whereas a dedicated effort
will now instead be made in the three major soft discount stores Fakta, Netto and
REMA1000. The collaboration will consist partly of tailor-made communication concepts
(presence in the sector’s own media); partly of in-store events with Season personnel touring
the store and handing out taste samples whilst providing customers with on-the-spot
suggestions for how to easily and without excessive extra cost add fruit and/or vegetables to
that particular evening’s meal. The aim is that these two activity parts together will bring
about a 40% presence of the Season brand in discount stores in Denmark by the end of the
programme period. 200 in-store events per programme year, a total of 600 events, are planned
27
to take place in a variety of stores under the three major soft discount chains in Denmark with
a foreseen 3 hours per store. The aim is to hand out 100 - 200 taste samples and 100 - 150
Season magazines to consumers per store per day.
Projected schedule: The incorporation of Season and its related messages into the discounters’
media will be done continuously throughout the three year programme period. At minimum,
Season should be present in the discounters’ media five times per year, coinciding with the
five annual releases of the Season magazine. The in-store events are scheduled to coincide for
the most part with the publication of the Season magazine.
3.
ACTION 3: SEASON ON THE SCHOOL SCHEDULE
The programme’s proposed activity intended specifically for children in schools is a course
plan designed for home economics classes to be implemented by Season guest teachers in
municipal schools in Denmark. In accordance with the main programme message –
“Everyday food with fruit, vegetables, and joy”, the guest teachers will create innovative and
exciting sessions and ‘infuse’ their own fundamental joy for fruit and vegetables into the
children. Another crucial parameter in the activity is to deliver the messages also to the
parents and thereby bridge the school setting with the home context. The Season guest
teachers will visit 25 school classes per year with in average of 25 pupils in each class
(approx 625 children directly involved). Every session will last 2 x 45 minutes and will be
followed by (minimum) 2 x 45 minutes during which the home economics teachers will
continue on the fruit and vegetables theme by themselves. The school material already
produced by GAU during the initial Season programme (2007-2009) will once again be put to
good use and be made available for download from a new section on the programme website
dedicated to home economics teachers. The aim is that 80% of the participating school
teachers will integrate Season and the theme ‘fruit and vegetables in everyday meals’ in their
future teaching. Further, it is the aim that 50% of the active members of the Association of
Home Economics Teachers (not having been visited by a Season guest teacher) will put the
theme on their course schedule.
Projected schedule: For each programme year, approx. 25 schools will be selected in or
around the month of May for implementation of the activity during the first half of the coming
school year (August – December). Regular advertisements on the home economics websites
www.hjemkundskab.nu and www.hjemkundskabsforum.dk, inclusion in 4 home economics
magazines per year as well as in 6 newsletters per year will be means to communicate on the
Season guest teachers concept, on related and relevant fruit and vegetables topics and to gain
visibility overall for the programme.
Anticipated impact:
- Reduce the percentage of families with children that eat less than 300 g/day from currently
84% to 75%.
- Increasing the share of families with children that buy fruit and vegetables more than twice
a week from currently 37% to 40%.
- Increase fruit and vegetables’ share of the household budget in families with children from
8.6% to minimum 10%.
- Raise families with children’s awareness of “Season” as a brand from currently 42 % to
50%.
These four have been broken further down into sub-objectives (result and impact indicators)
and, in accordance with the SMART concept, coherently presented in relation also to
relevance and viability.
28
Method of impact evaluation
The evaluation will be conducted by an external party, the market research institute GfK
Consumer Tracking Scandinavia. The objective evaluation of programme progress is thus
separated from management and coordination and from monitoring and control. A total of
three consumer surveys are foreseen; one after each twelve-month phase. The GfK survey
methodology is applied to 3,000 households realising 500,000 purchasing acts per year. A
GfK survey conducted in March 2013 has served as a baseline for defining the overall
objectives and results. Consumer perception and specific questions on consumers’ general
awareness of the Season programme and brand will be included in the annual GfK surveys.
Questionnaires relating to the Season magazine and the website will request feedback and
suggestions for improvement. Automatic registration and tracking systems will be used to
monitor web visitor rates, newsletter sign-ups, online advert click rates, etc. In-store and ‘inclass’ school activities will be evaluated via feedback and reports from Season personnel.

Programme eligible:
Yes
First observations to be communicated to MS:
1. In the programme it is presented the branding for the word "season". Season is a generic
word and it is not clear what it is meant by branding in the programme. In addition, please
have in mind that the promotion of brand names (commercial) is not an eligible action to
be financed under Council Regulation (EC) No 3/2008. Provide clarifications on this
point.
2. In action 1 the budget items under sub-action "on line ads, insertion" (pages 56 and 61)
should be broken down in more detail and further explained.
3. Concerning internet the extension ".eu" is suggested to be used for the website.
4. The hourly rates charged by the implementing body for the Art Director seem to be rather
high, up to 201€ per hour. Please provide comprehensive clarifications on this
observation.
5. In action No 2 on store events, it is presented that samples (fresh fruits and vegetables) of
a value 804 € will be distributed to consumers. However 804€ is equal to a daily
distribution of a value of 3,52 € of fresh fruits and vegetables. In addition this value of
3,52 € represents the costs for 100 to 200 samples of fresh fruits and vegetables according
to the programme. This is unrealistic and additional information and clarifications should
be provided on this point with the provision of an accurate number of planned samples.
6. Concerning action No 2, please provide the locations and the timeframe of the in-store
events. In addition the costs of t-shirts and fleece jackets seem to be rather high (90€ per
piece) and this expenditure should be clarified.
7. The calculations in the financing table of the programme should be corrected.
8. Concerning action 3, please provide the locations of the schools where the action will take
place and the timeframe of the actions.
9. Additional information and clarifications should be provided on the European dimension
of the programme as described in chapter 2.7 of the handbook for the programmes on the
promotion of agricultural products within the framework of Council Regulation (EU) No
3/2008.
10. On page 54 there is a difference on the presented cost for photos i.e. 5.530€ per magazine
equals 27.650€ and not 27.646€ per year. Furthermore on page 61 on staff training the
presented cost of 360€ per each trained member of staff equals to 9.000€ and not to
8.996€. The amounts in the budget tables of the programme should be checked to avoid
any differences and the resulting adjustments should be undertaken. If necessary new
budget tables should be resubmitted (in case of changes on budget tables).

First observations to be communicated to MS:
1 Provide further information on the production volume and Greek exports to USA of each
individual promoted product for years 2011 and 2012 if possible. This figures will be used
as a starting point for the impact assessment. The method for the evaluation of the
influence on demand and sales of promoted products should also be presented. Provide
further information on the current levels of awareness for PDO /PGI products for the
target groups in the targeted markets.
2 Articles with reference to health should meet the requirements of article 4(1) of
Commission Regulation (EC) No 501/2008. Provide clarifications.
3 Provide further details on the strategy in relation to the presentation of the European
dimension on EU food safety and EU quality system.
4 Provide further information on how the promotion and the provision of information on
PDO/PGI products and non PDO/PGI products will be distinguished to avoid any
confusion.
5 Provide additional information and clarifications on the description of the use of the
application of i-phone and smart phones as part of action 1 for the promotion and the
provision of information on the products of the programme.
6 The action at the points of sales is quite an extensive action with an important budget. In
consequence additional detailed information should be presented to cover the
supermarkets and malls locations, their size and positions, the specific planning and
timeframe of the action, the samples' detailed description including type, numbers, volume
or weight and the type and number of brochures to be distributed. The cost per contact is
high compared to other actions with higher returns in relation to this element. A
modification to address this remark should be considered as an improvement of the
programme. Provide additional information and clarifications to cover this observation.
7 Concerning action No 5, on invitations of opinion leaders, It is suggested that the
presented costs should be adapted to the maximum eligible amounts of cost foreseen by
the annex III.B.2.2 (internal market) of the model contract. This action will take place in
Greece and the real costs are in line with the internal market amounts.
8 In action 6 the members of the groups of producers who will visit the target countries are
members of the proposing organization. Therefore the relevant costs should be included in
the general costs of the proposing organization. The modified budget table should be
resubmitted (budget tables per year and per target country).
9 Concerning the evaluation of the competent authority of Greece for this programme, the
evaluation form used that refers to the programmes targeting the internal market is used.
However the correct form should be used that refers to the evaluation of the programmes
targeting third countries and which is slightly different. Provide the evaluation of the
programme in the correct form.

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
A été mise en évidence une certaine méconnaissance des labels communautaires de qualité
différenciée AOP/IGP auprès des consommateurs européens. Outre une méconnaissance des
différences entre les différents labels et les implications économiques, sociales et
environnementales liées à ces labels est également méconnu le fait que ces labels informent
sur l'origine des produits ainsi que sur des aspects tels que la qualité, la tradition, l'emploi en
zone rurale ou la biodiversité est un fait méconnu.
Par ailleurs, la consommation des légumineuses a diminué de 50% au cours de ces 20
dernières années et seulement 1% des légumineuses bénéficient des labels de qualité.
Le programme présenté se veut d'une durée de deux ans pour répondre à une planification
stratégique qui consiste, sur base des résultats obtenus, à poursuivre dans le futur ce genre
d'action et ce en collaboration avec d'autre AOP/IGP d'autres EM et ainsi développer
conjointement un programme de promotion plus ambitieux.
44
Les deux EM cibles choisis pour ce programme en dehors de l'Espagne sont:
- le Portugal, pays producteur et grand consommateur de légumineuse mais ne disposant pas
de label de qualité
- la France, pays producteur et consommateur de légumineuses et disposant de diverses
indications géographiques protégées en légumineuses.
Objectif(s) :
Ce programme a pour objectif la réalisation d'activités d'information et de promotion
destinées principalement à:
1. faire connaître à un grand nombre de personnes, le système communautaire de
protection des dénominations de produits prévu par les règlements (CE) nº 509/2006
et (CE) nº 510/2006 ainsi, que spécifiquement, quelques légumineuses de qualité
protégés par une AOP ou une IGP élaborés dans plusieurs régions d'Espagne.
2. promouvoir la consommation de produits AOP/IGP.
Cette campagne visera les objectifs stratégiques suivants:
- Promouvoir la connaissance des logos communautaires de qualité différenciée
AOP/IGP auprès des divers échelons de la chaîne alimentaire: producteurs,
restaurateurs, étudiants en hôtellerie et consommateurs.
- Fournir une information détaillée sur la signification des logos de qualité AOP/IGP,
leur différence et valeur ainsi que leur incidence sociale, économique et
environnementale.
- Informer les producteurs et groupements de producteurs des caractéristiques et
avantages des productions couvertes par ces marques de qualité que sont l'AOP et
l'IGP et encourager ceux qui ne sont pas encore partie prenantes à ces régimes à
enregistrer la dénomination des produits, favorisant ainsi le développement rural de la
zone.
- Stimuler la consommation des produits à qualité différenciée IGP/AOP et en
particulier les légumineuses disposant de ce logo de qualité.
Un accent particulier sera mis en fonction du pays cible:
Ainsi, pour les actions développées en Espagne, l'objectif prioritaire sera illustré à l'aide de 2
formes de préparation de pois chiches, lentilles et haricots IGP/AOP (en cuisson et en salade)
et axé principalement sur le consommateur plus jeune de 25-45 ans afin de l'informer des
bénéfices des légumineuses de qualité, de leurs possibilités gastronomiques et de leur facilité
de préparation et conservation. Par ailleurs, le secteur de la restauration sera également ciblé
afin de moderniser l'image des légumineuses au travers de ces logos. Les médias et leader
d'opinions seront impliqués dans la dissémination des messages clés de la campagne et les
agriculteurs seront conscientisés quant aux bénéfices de culture de légumineuses AOP/IGP et
à l'importance de participer aux Conseils de Régulation susceptibles par ailleurs de faciliter
l'accès de ses membres à un marché gourmet des légumes IGP/AOP.
Pour la France et le Portugal, accroître la notoriété de ces logos de qualité IGP/AOP reste
l'objectif principal au travers des 3 produits préalablement cités tout en assurant une présence
croissante de ceux-ci sur le marché. En outre, éduquer et impliquer le secteur de la
restauration dans la modernisation de l'image des légumes IGP/AOP constitue également un
objectif précis tout en informant sur le concept et la valeur ajoutée de ce régime. Médias et
leaders d'opinions devront être impliqués dans la diffusion des messages principaux de la
campagne. Le réseau de commercialisation international des entreprises affiliées aux Conseils
de Régulation devrait être élargi afin de fournir des légumineuses estampillées AOP/IGP
auprès des établissements issus du marché gourmet européen.
45
Stratégie :
La stratégie proposée est basée sur 2 types d'actions:
1.
2.
Pénétrer, augmenter et consolider le réseau commercial et de distribution en réalisant
un travail de formation et d'éducation des distributeurs et en travaillant sur tout le
canal détaillants et Horeca.
Agir sur les leaders d'opinion et les prescripteurs en travaillant les domaines de la
gastronomie, la nutrition et la santé.
Et pour mettre sur pied ces actions:
La stratégie suivante devra être adoptée:
- Création d'objectifs et actions concrètes pour chaque marché: le marché national
(Espagne) et le marché international (France et Portugal)
- Détermination du nombre de distributeurs existant et évaluation du nombre de
distributeurs supplémentaires réalisable annuellement.
- Renforcement d'actions auprès de différents canaux et en particulier l' Horeca, les
prescripteurs et les professionnels.
- Initier des actions auprès du consommateur final.
Les objectifs suivants devront être réalisés:
- Accroître le degré de connaissance des logos communautaires IGP /AOP.
- Développer une campagne des logos IGP/AOP pour éduquer sur la gamme étendue de
légumes tout en encourageant la connaissance et la valeur de ces logos distinctifs.
- Favoriser la vente de ce type de produits sur un marché plus gourmet qui n'achète pas
de légume standard.
- Positionner/placer ces produits de qualité dans l'esprit des prescripteurs.
Le projet sera divisé en 2 phases:
- 1ère année: mise en valeur de la qualité offerte par le logo IGP/AOP aux légumes,
positionnement du produit sur le marché et réalisation d'une campagne d'information
sur le produit à promouvoir
- 2ème année: les messages ayant été expliqués ainsi que la mise en valeur et la
différenciation du produit ayant été initiés la 1ère année, cette 2ème année est consacrée
à la promotion des ventes.
Cibles:
Les groupes cibles sont au nombre de 4:
1. Les consommateurs
Suite à une étude relative à la Segmentation de styles de cuisines en Espagne présentée
en septembre 2012 par KWP Lifestyles Kantar Worldpanel, les résultats obtenus
laissent entrevoir une nouvelle approche pour mener à bien des actions auprès du
secteur alimentaire.
2. Les relais d'opinion à savoir les chefs et autres références de la gastronomie espagnole
mais aussi les moyens de communication généraux et spécialisés ainsi que les
influenceurs en ligne (webs, blogeurs…).
3. La restauration
- La Haute Restauration comme prescriptrice et génératrice de tendances.
- La Restauration Moyenne permettant la connaissance de recettes faciles et
économiques des légumes IGP/AOP
- Les écoles d'Hôtellerie afin de former les futurs professionnels de la restauration.
- La restauration en général en tant que canal pour parvenir au consommateur final
national ou international
4. Les producteurs

Messages à communiquer :
- Les logos de AOP / IGP sont importants pour les produits traditionnels et liés à la terre
tels que les légumineuses. Ce label européen reconnaît en effet que ces produits sont
liés à la terre, à l'environnement et au tissu rural, raison pour laquelle produire et
consommer ce type de légumineuses sous-entend des valeurs sociales et
environnementales très importantes.
- Ce label de qualité différenciée AOP / IGP protège un produit qui est nutritif, sain et
équilibré, avec une teneur élevée en fibres végétales, faible en graisse, riche en hydrates
de carbone, riche en protéines-vitamines et minéraux. Outre le fait d'être lié à la terre et
protégé par le logo AOP / IGP, il fait partie de la diète méditerranéenne
- Le label AOP / IGP ne signifie pas une augmentation des prix ou un changement dans
son usage et sa versatilité mais plutôt le fait que cette protection de l'UE contribue à
mettre en valeur les qualités du produit pour le consommateur
- Les Conseils de Régulation des AOP / IGP contrôlent l'ensemble du processus de
production et de distribution, ce qui signifie pour le consommateur, une assurance des
47
caractéristiques organoleptiques du produit certifié, ce qui l'aidera à le conserver et
l'utiliser
- Ces produits ont toujours fait partie de notre cuisine traditionnelle et cela revêt de toute
son importance lorsqu'ils sont protégés dans le cadre du label européen AOP/IGP
- Le fait d'appartenir à des Conseils de Régulation, de suivre leurs règles et d'utiliser leurs
semences, implique le suivi de protocoles de certification et de contrôle bénéfiques pour
l'environnement, contribuant ainsi à une agriculture plus durable
- Le label AOP / IGP offre une très large gamme de produits (pois chiches, lentilles,
haricots) ce qui signifie une protection de la biodiversité agricole qui se traduit par une
grande variété à la consommation.

Dimension européenne du programme:
Parmi les objectifs de la PAC établis dans l'Article 33 du Traité, il y a:
- Stabiliser les marchés,
- Garantir la sécurité de la nourriture au consommateur à des prix raisonnables
C'est pourquoi le proposant considère que l'octroi d'une aide communautaire pour des actions
de promotions de légumineuses est totalement en ligne pour parvenir à ces objectifs.
Avec cette promotion, une croissance future de consommation est espérée, renforçant ainsi les
revenus agricoles, également objectif de la PAC. De plus, les experts s'accordent à dire qu'une
diète saine joue un rôle fondamental dans la réduction des indices d'obésité et des risques de
maladies graves à l'âge adulte. Pour ce faire, il est indispensable que la diète inclue une
consommation suffisante de légumineuses.
La dimension européenne du projet est acquise pour les raisons suivantes:
- Il s'agit d'un label européen image de l'Europe. Portée d'un label européen IGP/AOP et
sa synergie avec d'autres produits IGP/AOP même si ces derniers ne sont pas des
légumineuses
- Produit traditionnel européen lié à la diète méditerranéenne
- Divulgation et information sur les différentes normes de production et variétés de
légumineuses IGP/AOP

Avis du consultant externe: Prédisposition favorable sous réserve de l'obtention de
précisions (E-mail Ares(2013)2745658 du 24/07/2013)
CONCLUSIONS:
1. Description du programme
Changer la référence aux Règlements (CE) n° 509/2006 et (CE) n° 510/2006 abrogés et
remplacés par le Règlement (CE) 1151/2012 entré en vigueur en janvier 2013.
2. Objectifs du programme
L'objectif du programme est double:
- d'une part faire connaître à un grand nombre de personnes, le système communautaire
de protection des dénominations de produits au travers de 3 légumineuses: le pois
chiche, la lentille et le haricot;
- d'autre part, stimuler la demande des produits AOP/IGP
Le programme présente une bonne étude chiffrée de la valeur commerciale des produits
alimentaires AOP/IGP (dont les légumineuses), de leur production et de la consommation
mondiale et européenne.
Cependant:
- il n'y a pas d'estimation de départ en ce qui concerne le degré de notoriété du label
européen AOP-IGP ni en ce qui concerne le degré d'amélioration de notoriété visé.
- il n'y a pas de description quantitative de résultats escomptés au niveau de la demande
des produits AOP/IGP(accroissement des ventes ou de la consommation,
rajeunissement de la cible consommateurs, adhésion de nouveaux membres aux
AOP/IGP…).
L'objectif principal du programme n'est donc pas mesurable.
54
3. Messages du programme
Conformément à l'article 3 du Règlement de la Commission 501/2008, "Les messages
faisant référence à des effets sur la santé doivent être acceptés par l'autorité nationale
compétente en matière de santé publique".
Dans la description du programme (p15), il est fait référence aux nouvelles attentes de la
société européenne en matière de bien-être, santé et environnement.
Pour rappel, toute référence à des effets sur la santé doit faire l'objet de l'acceptation de
l'autorité compétente.
4. Actions du programme:
Selon l'article 8, §1.c du Règlement de la Commission 501/2008:
"1.c …être suffisamment développés pour que leur conformité avec la réglementation
applicable et leur rapport coût/efficacité puissent être évalués."
Le programme contient un ensemble d'actions qui dans l'ensemble sont suffisamment
décrites.
Cependant, quelques détails supplémentaires sont requis pour les actions suivantes:

Action 7
Préciser l'école hôtelière choisie pour la France et les critères qui ont orienté ce choix et
pourquoi une seule école.
Préciser les professionnels prévus pour la discussion sur le label AOP/IGP.

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
Objectif(s) :
Des objectifs spécifiques ont été élaborés afin de tenir compte de la réalité du marché nordaméricain et de répondre à la nécessité d'objectifs SMART:
 Accroître la connaissance d'une variété typique européenne, la Grenache, au sein du grand
public nord-américain achetant du vin plus d'une fois par mois et en particulier en
Californie, New-York, Floride et Ontario
 Améliorer le positionnement de ce vin au sein du grand public, au même titre que le sont
actuellement le Cabernet-Sauvignon, le Pinot Noir, le Malbec ou le Sauvignon Blanc en
rehaussant les propriétés de la Grenache objectives (qualité, caractéristiques
organoleptiques, diversité, savoir-faire…) et émotionnelles (exclusivité, prochaine mode,
passion, romantisme, style de vie à la méditerranéenne…).
 Expliquer la qualité et les caractéristiques spécifiques des AOP proposantes parmi le vin
européen de Grenache
58
 Informer sur l'importance et les caractéristiques des signes de qualité européens pour les
produits viticoles
 Accroître la part de marché des vins de Grenache européens aux EEUU et Canada et en
particulier celui des AOP participantes
Stratégie :
Pour maximiser la rentabilité du programme, ont été sélectionnées des actions sur base des
critères suivants:
 Définition précise du public cible: les consommateurs finaux ont été identifiés comme le
public méconnaissant le plus le produit et en particulier les Millenial Treaters,
Experienced Explorers et les Premium Brand Suburbans*. Les professionnels seront
ciblés si nécessaire pour atteindre le public cible final.
 Focus sur des zones multi pays similaires afin d'obtenir des synergies tout au long de la
campagne en matière de communication, messages…
 Adaptation au public nord-américain différent du public européen à l'aide d'une agence
locale qui puisse prioriser les attentes du public cible
 Définition et uniformité du message au travers d'une image reconnaissable facilement
qui permette de produite un effet accumulatif au travers des diverses actions
 Utilisation de canaux concentrés et complémentaires destinés au public cible à savoir les
moyens de communication online et offline, les réseaux sociaux pour intéresser le public
et les points de ventes proches du lieu de résidence pour découvrir le produit en le
testant.
 Planification des actions pour rentabiliser leur efficacité
 Coordination des activités via les différentes DO proposantes
 Mesure rigoureuse de la campagne ex ante et ex post afin de tendre vers une cohérence
entre les opportunités de marché identifiées, les objectifs, les messages, les actions et les
canaux d'information (développement d'une image du programme et des objectifs visés
pour chacune des actions développées).
 Mesure et suivi des résultats
Le programme appliquera ces critères dans le but de parvenir à une synergie entre les
opportunités de marché, les objectifs, les actions et les canaux de communication:
 Élaboration de lignes directrices de l'image
 Actions visant le consommateur aux EEUU et au Canada:
- RP destinée à préparer le champ d'action pour le public cible
- Media digital destiné à créer la notoriété auprès de tous les auditoires et de préparer un
groupe social qui suivra le programme et transfèrera les messages et actions aux autres
groupes sociaux
- Evénements destinés à éduquer le consommateur et créer des tendances
- Campagne "Jour de la Grenache" destinée aux consommateurs pour attirer le public
cible sur des lieux où il pourra goûter et acheter le produit
- Trade Marketing dans le but de transmettre les messages dans les marchés cibles où
s'échangent des informations, des échantillons et où ont lieu des achats
 Mesures des impacts et suivi de l'efficacité de la campagne à l'aide d'une mesure
stratégique des objectifs finaux (avant, pendant et après) et intermédiaires (nombre
d'impacts…).
Cibles :
Ce programme vise principalement les consommateurs finaux habitués du vin et en particulier
les consommateurs de New York (EEUU), Floride (EEUU), Californie (EEUU) et Ontario
(Canada).
59
Ces consommateurs ont été subdivisés en 3 groupes* qui ensemble concentrent 81% de la
demande de 50% des consommateurs:
1. les Millenial Treaters: moyenne de 28 ans, haute dépense, consommation fréquente,
ouvert aux importations, actifs sur le web et réseaux sociaux, intéressés par ce qui est
dit sur le vin par les amis, médias et restaurants
2. les Experienced Explorers: moyenne de 45 ans, haute dépense, consommation
fréquente, ouverts aux importations, à l'écoute des détaillants
3. les Premium Brand Suburbans: 49 ans, dépense moyenne et consommation
fréquente, moyennement ouverts aux importations, à l'écoute des détaillants
Afin de toucher ce public cible, les professionnels du marché vin aux EEUU et Canada sont
également visés.
A ce titre, pourraient aussi être contactés la presse, les membres de la filière et certains
consommateurs particulièrement influents.
Thèmes:
Les thèmes à traiter se veulent cohérents par rapport aux objectifs de ce programme
d'information et tourneront autour des thèmes suivants:
 Les caractéristiques des vins européens de qualité élaborés avec la variété Grenache
 L'origine européenne et méditerranéenne de la Grenache (utilisation de la double
prononciation espagnole et française afin de souligner le caractère transeuropéen)
 Les systèmes et labels de qualité des dénominations européens qui obéissent aux
exigences de l'UE tels que les AOP proposantes.

Le vin de Grenache a des saveurs et arômes délicieux et adaptés au goût nord-américain
(touche fruitée, puissance de saveur, …)
Le vin de Grenache est une variété très diversifiée (vins rouges, blancs, rosés, sucres,
monovariétale, coupage…)
Le vin de Grenache offre une grande possibilité de consommation (viandes, légumes,
desserts, chocolats…)
Le vin de Grenache est un vin Exclusif (“the Next Big Thing”), connu par un nombre réduit
d'experts
Le vin de Grenache est une variété très sensuelle, romantique, passionnée…
Le vin de Grenache est la variété européenne méditerranéenne par excellence et la plus
répandue.

Le vin de Grenache représente les valeurs du style de vie européen méditerranéen.
Le vin de Grenache est adapté au terroir et au climat méditerranéen reflété dans les qualités
de ce vin
Le raisin Garnacha/Grenache transmet un message de durabilité de l'agriculture
européenne: la résistance de ses vignes aux fluctuations extrêmes du climat (chaleur,
sécheresse) fait que les experts la considèrent comme une réponse clé au secteur face au
changement climatique (cfr le III Congrès “Changement climatique et Vin” où le vin de
Garnache a été abordé comme thème du Congrès présenté par Kofi Annan en 2010).
Les AOP proposantes constituent un bon exemple de cette origine européenne et
méditerranéenne
La Garnacha/Grenache est une des variétés les plus sensibles aux méthodes de production:
sans production de qualité, le vin peut beaucoup souffrir ; l'âge de la vigne est primordial et
une attention particulière s'impose lors de son élaboration pour éviter toute oxydation….
Les systèmes et signes de qualité européens garantissent une élaboration adaptée.
Les cinq AOP proposantes garantissent cette élaboration adaptée en tant que parties
intégrantes des systèmes européens de qualité
Actions, y inclus leur portée/volume et calendrier prévisionnel :
Action 1: Création d'image (3.923€)
Cette action vise à:
1. Créer les fondements pour toutes les communications de Marketing (image et langue)
2. Créer une identité unique et différenciée de cette variété et faire transparaître sa
caractéristique de variété européenne méditerranéenne
Des réunions internes et des recherches seront organisées afin de concrétiser les thèmes et
messages de la campagne sous forme d'image concrète et de "claims" spécifiques (résumés de
messages):
Action 2: Relations publiques (139.577 €)
Cette action vise à:
1. Créer un Bureau de presse destiné à mettre sur pied l'infrastructure de communication
nécessaire pour la campagne
2. Générer et obtenir une couverture éditoriale pour la Grenache qui dépasse les
20.000.000 d'impact dans les 12 mois suivant le lancement des activités de RP.
Pour ce faire, une panoplie d'éléments de communication est nécessaire: dossier de presse,
envoi d'échantillons et dégustations, missions commerciales, événement presse vin,
newsletter, communiqués de presse, interviews avec des journalistes, coupures de presse ...


L'objectif final du programme est d'accroître la connaissance du vin de qualité de Grenache au
sein du public nord-américain pour augmenter la part de marché de cette variété à long terme.
66
Pour ce faire, sont mis en place une série d'outils destinés à améliorer son positionnement et
des explications quant aux sigles de qualité européens ainsi qu'à la qualité et les
caractéristiques des AOP proposantes.
Objectifs principaux:
• Augmentation de la connaissance: mesure via une enquête périodique (ex-ante et ex-post)
sur un échantillonnage de 2.000 consommateurs aux EEUU et 1.000 au Canada.
L'évolution de la campagne sera mesurée tout au long de la campagne avec des interviews
approfondis d'experts
• L'objectif visé est d'accroître entre un 25% et un 50% le nombre de personnes qui
connaissent, valorisent et ont goûté le vin européen de qualité Grenache ainsi que ses AOP
participantes au cours des 6 derniers mois dans les zones visées par le programme
(Californie, New York, Floride et Ontario).
Un total de 10.000.000 consommateurs habituels de vin EEUU et Canada/an devraient
bénéficier de la campagne de promotion
Méthodes d’appréciation de l’impact :
La méthode choisie se subdivise en 2 parties:
1. Evaluation des objectifs (présentation de rapports clairs, précis, exhaustifs sur les
actions et leurs résultats pour rendre compte de l'efficacité, la rentabilité et les
recommandations)
2. Evaluation de la stratégie et des actions
2.1 Rapport des actions aux Conseils Régulateurs participants
2.2 Prise en compte de paramètres tels que par exemple
- Action 3 (RP): nombre de publications, type de média (auteur-résumé),
diffusion et impact (clipping trimestriels), rapports des actions, nombre de
participants et origine média, vins servis
- Action 4: Facebook (fans, taux de participation, démographie, "j'aime" sur la
pub, tendances), Twitter (followers, taux de participation et tendances), page
Web (visiteurs, temps de consultation, démographie, tendances), Journée de la
Grenache (nombre de tweets par événement, nouveaux fans ou followers) vidéo
(nombre de vues), publicité digitale (impact, % de clics)
- Action 5: Wine Riot (nombre de participants, marques de vins et quantité
servie, photographies illustrant participation du client, échantillons sur réseaux
sociaux, nombre de nouveaux fans et j'aime sur l'événement)
- Action 6: Journée de la Grenache (nombre de points participants, actions
réalisées, nombre de dégustations, plan média, nombre d'articles)
- Action 7: Trade Marketing (nombre de participants, impact des courriels
envoyés, nombre de dégustations, nombre de bouteilles dégustées, nombre de
bouteilles achetées, photographies illustrant matériel de promotion, nombre de
détaillants offline, nombre de formations et participants, moyens de
communication utilisés pour la pub)
Pour mesurer les objectifs principaux, une agence externe à l'Organisme d'Exécution, Wine
Intelligence spécialisée dans le marché du vin, sera chargée des mesures d'impact des
objectifs primaires. Les indicateurs seront évalués avant le programme et en fin de chaque
annualité via un sondage auprès de 2.000 consommateurs aux EEUU et 1.000 consommateurs
au Canada.
Les indicateurs d'évaluation à prendre en considération seront:
 % de buveurs régulier connaissant le vin européen de Grenache
67



% de personnes valorisant positivement la qualité (bonne ou très bonne)
% de personnes valorisant positivement le rapport qualité/prix (bonne ou très bonne)
% de personnes ayant goûté ce vin dans les derniers 6 mois (actuellement, autour des
5% des buveurs réguliers de vin l'ont goûté)
Par ailleurs, une série de 6 interviews menées en profondeur sera menée chaque année tout au
long du programme afin d'aider à interpréter l'impact. Seront analysées les opportunités de la
Grenache dans les pays cibles et son exploitation via le programme. La notoriété du
programme sera basée sur un échantillon de 2.000 personnes aux EEUU et 1000 au Canada.
Une équipe scientifique spécialisée dans le marché du vin et concrètement sur le marché nordaméricain utilisera les données générées tout au long de la campagne pour analyser son
évolution et le lien entre l'impact des actions et le résultat final des objectifs principaux:
 Tendances de la consommation selon la variété de raisin
 Opportunités pour la croissance de la Grenache aux EEUU et au Canada
 Connaissance de la campagne et compréhension des messages
 Attitude envers ces vins suite à la campagne menée
L'agence de recherche, Vinitrac, compte parmi son équipe de scientifiques:
 Bradley J. Rickard, professeur au Départment of Applied Economics & Management
de l'Université de Cornell (EEUU).
 Luis Miguel Albisu, Chef de l'unité d'Economoe Agroalimentaires et des Ressources

CONCLUSIONS:
Le marché américain offre un grand potentiel pour les vins européens de qualité et notamment
pour de par sa production, sa croissance et son prix, en particulier en ce qui concerne les vins
importés.
Néanmoins, les vins européens perdent des parts de marché face aux vins du Nouveau Monde.
La principale variable en Amérique du Nord déterminant la décision d'acheter un vin est
principalement le cépage (la variété de la vigne), suivie des recommandations et de la marque.
Les pays à croissance d'exportations la plus élevée, sont ceux qui ont réussis à ce que les
consommateurs les identifient à des cépages déterminés. Par exemple, l'Australie avec le
Shiraz ou l'Argentine avec le Malbec.
Il y a des variétés typiquement européennes telles que la Garnacha / Grenache, qui sont très
appréciées et connues par les relais d'opinions et le canal nord-américains, mais largement
70
méconnues du grand public avec une part de marché particulièrement faible par rapport à
l'importance de sa production en Europe.
Par conséquent, il semble pertinent de cibler le marché nord-américain en tant que priorité
dans les campagnes de communication sur les vins européens de qualité, et en particulier dans
les régions de la Californie, New York, Floride et Ontario, avec une présence à la fois hors
ligne et en ligne.
1. Identification du programme
Le programme est présenté comme étant un programme d'information.
L'un des objectifs visés est de stimuler la demande des produits concernés ; ce qui
ressemble davantage à un programme de promotion.
A modifier par programme mixte.
2. L'organisme d'exécution:
Selon l'Annexe III.B du Modèle de Contrat, les honoraires de l'organisme d'exécution
peuvent être facturés sur base des travaux réellement exécutés ou sur base d'un montant
forfaitaire.
L'organisme d'exécution sélectionné a opté pour des honoraires facturés sur base des
travaux réellement exécutés, ce qui équivaut pour la 1ère année à:
Action 1 100% des coûts
30 heures
3.923€
Action 2 24,39% des coûts
285 heures
34.000€
Action 3 19% des coûts
232 heures
19.720€
Action 4 16,46% des coûts
36 heures
4.852€
Action 5 14,87% des coûts
96 heures
11.992€
Action 6 8,59% des coûts
176 heures
20.912€
Prière de justifier le nombre d'heures et le niveau d'honoraire indiqués dans le programme
et le cas échéant d'ajuster les montants.
L'action 1 est exclusivement calculée sur base de coûts/horaires de personnel divers,
cependant il n'y a pas de designer prévu: à justifier.
Confirmer que les autres fournisseurs cités tels que "Aragon Exterior" (AREX) et "Wine
Intelligence" seront sous-traités par l'Agence d'Exécution Benson Marketing Group.
3. Objectifs du programme
L'objectif du programme est double:
-
d'une part faire accroître la connaissance du vin de qualité de Grenache au sein du public nordaméricain;
d'autre part, augmenter la part de marché de cette variété à long terme.
Le programme présente une bonne description chiffrée et documentée du marché cible,
cependant les descriptions quantitatives en matière de consommation, de notoriété et du
niveau de ranking sont insuffisamment détaillées.
Sur base des informations disponibles, les objectifs principaux du programme ne sont pas
mesurables. Veuillez préciser:
- le degré de notoriété du vin de grenache en début de programme et le résultat escompté après
les 3 ans de programme
- le niveau de consommation du vin de grenache et son niveau de ranking mondial en début de
programme et le résultat escompté après les 3 ans du programme.
71
4. Actions du programme:
Selon l'article 8, §1.c du Règlement de la Commission 501/2008:
"1.c …être suffisamment développés pour que leur conformité avec la réglementation

territoire américain et canadien.
Une attention particulière devra être portée en matière d'analyse d'impact du programme
sur la notoriété du vin de Grenache ainsi que sur son positionnement sur les marchés
visés.
En conclusion, le programme contient un ensemble d'actions cohérentes mais pas toujours
suffisamment détaillées. Par ailleurs les honoraires de l'organisme d'exécution basés sur les
travaux réellement exécutés devraient être justifiés et revus à la baisse le cas échéant.

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
Objective(s) :
Pork meat consumption has regularly increased on the Finnish market these last 20 years,
mostly for prepared dishes and various types of sausages. However, pork still has a negative
image in comparison to other meats; therefore a national quality scheme has been launched
and is due for approval (summer 2013), in order to combat this negative image. Consumers
consider pork meat as unhealthy, difficult to prepare. They want more information and
traceability. The image of the product has to be reevaluated, following EU standards and
promoting less intensive breeding conditions more in line with animal welfare requirements.
The proposed programme aims at these different, complementary goals. Its quantitative
objectives are:
1. 75% of target group is aware of new national quality system by name.
2. Target group knows main content of quality system and recognises relevant attributes.
3. Strengthen and increase consumer trust and interest in the national quality system for pork.
75

Three year communication program during which the objectives are to be reached through
effective, multi-channel and well-targeted actions.
By applying the SMART principle the proposing organisation counts on the highest possible
effect of the campaign in achieving the set objectives.
Target group(s) :
- Consumers, responsible for family purchases.
- Food professionals and managers in institutional kitchens, restaurants and catering trade
(public sector + private entities).

Targets to be defined on the basis of the baseline study
Additionally, certain words should be emphasised in the contents of answers, such as product
safety, animal health and wellbeing. The image attributes sought are reliability and
transparency, as a minimum. The final image attributes will be chosen on the basis of the
baseline study results. This will also create a starting point for image attribute targets
throughout the programme. The objective is to raise the preferences for selected image
attributes as the foundation for the term QUALITY GUARANTEE. Image attributes should
be based on the key messages presented and confirmed by the messages to be conveyed.
Press monitoring
The objective of press monitoring is to achieve 100 hits during the first 3-month period for the
term QUALITY GUARANTEE. The target for the first programme year is a minimum of 300
hits. The target for the whole programme period is 500 hits.
HoReCa sector
At the end of year three, a survey will be conducted among the HoReCa sector on the
adoption of the quality criteria in inviting tenders. The objective is for more than 30% of the
survey participants to have adopted the quality criteria when acquiring pork, and for 75% of
the participants to be aware that they can implement the quality criteria, if they so require.
Appreciation methods of the impact:
- Baseline study + intermediate measurement of overall efficacy of programme (3, 12, 24 and
36 months)
- Survey through online panel after initial baseline study (after first 3 months, then every 6
months)
- Aspects covered: content national quality scheme, image attributes, recognition, reliability,
transparency, willingness to buy, preferences
77
- Television + press advertising: efficacy measured on basis of target group contacts, price
and accessibility; realisation of OTS and TRP (target rating point)
- Effectiveness website: amount of visitors, advertisement displays and hits
- Press: volume of articles
- HoReCa: survey at end of programme (review of implementation of quality criteria in
acquisition of pork)

First observations to be communicated to MS :
Proposing organisation and implementing body:
The Member State is asked to confirm whether the proposing organisation is a public or
private body, in the sense of Article 1(9) of Directive 2004/18/EC (c.f. Article 13(2) of
Regulation 501/2008).
1. Page 21 of proposal: calculation on basis of unit prices as mentioned on page 20 (3.000
EUR/30s spot; 900 EUR/5s spot) results in other total amount as mentioned in table
(280.500EUR instead of 250.000EUR); please explain and, if necessary, correct accordingly
and adjust budget table and financing plan
2. Page 23 of proposal: provide a more detailed schedule of the periods outdoor advertising is
planned
3. Page 23 of proposal: action 5.7.1.2.5. Online advertising: production cost of advertisement
displays is nowhere mentioned; please indicate what budget is foreseen and who will create
them?
4. Page 24 of proposal: Gastro Trade Fair: it is indicated that the fair is organised every two
year, therefore please explain why costs are foreseen for this action during all three years of
the programme; also indicate in what year the programme will attend the fair
5. Page 24 of proposal: it is mentioned that cooperation with external private and public
partners will be investigated; please indicate how Art 1§2 of Reg 3/2008 according to which
"measures shall not be brand oriented" will be respected
6. Page 24 of proposal: in order to allow us to assess the opportunity for participation in these
events, more details are required in relation to the "specialist industry functions and events"
and the "seminars and lectures" where the national quality system for pork will be introduced
(what, where, when, frequency, targeted public, history…)
7. Page 30 of proposal: several data in table 10 is incorrect on the basis of given unit prices
and foreseen number of hours (eg "background work" during 46 hours at 140 EUR/h should
be 6.440EUR instead of 6.500EUR); check and adjust table 10, and adjust budget table and
financing plan accordingly
8. Page 35 of proposal: provide a budget table which corresponds with the standard table as
explained in the guidelines on
http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/promotion/procedure/index_en.htm (see Application Form)

CONCLUSIONS:
Observation(s)
Following the request for additional information (30/07/2013 – Ares 2797746) FI sent us on

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
Objectif(s) :
1. Atteindre un taux de reconnaissance assistée du logo AOP de 40% minimum sur le public
cible du programme au terme des 3 ans de campagne.
2. Stabiliser à 0% au terme des trois ans de programme (évolution 2015-2016), la perte de
part de marché en volumes des fromages AOP commercialisés en France par rapport aux
fromages non AOP.
Stratégie :
L’harmonisation des signes officiels de qualités mise en place au niveau européen par le
règlement 2081/1992 a conduit à la reconnaissance des AOC françaises en AOP. Pour les
consommateurs français, ce règlement a entrainé un changement du logo identifiant les
produits d’appellations d’origine.
83
Un second changement sur le logo AOP communautaire est intervenu en 2009 pour mieux le
distinguer du logo IGP: le logo AOP communautaire a alors évolué vers le rouge et or (au lieu
du bleu et or). L’instauration de ce nouveau logo pour le consommateur a nécessité un effort
de communication de la part des opérateurs, des filières des états membres et de l’Europe.
Mais malgré des efforts conséquents et notamment deux campagnes européennes sur les
produits laitiers AOP (2004-2006 et 2007-2010), le logo communautaire reste à ce jour à un
niveau de notoriété très faible. Ce niveau est insuffisant pour en faire un critère de choix dans
l’acte d’achat d’un produit par le consommateur1. Un « état zéro » réalisé en décembre 2012
indépendamment des post-test indique 19% en reconnaissance assistée auprès de la
population française âgée de 15 ans et plus, soit bien en deçà de la notoriété de l’ancien logo
AOC (58 % en reconnaissance assistée sur les 25-49 ans), et également en deçà de labels
privés (label « fair trade » 29% en France sur les 15 ans et plus) ou du logo Agriculture
biologique (38% en France sur les 15 ans et plus).
Par conséquent, le niveau actuel de reconnaissance du logo communautaire AOP ne permet
pas d’en faire un critère de choix pour le consommateur. Aussi, son consentement à payer un
produit plus cher pour un signe de qualité qu’il ne connait pas n’est donc pas activé. Il en
résulte au final une perte de part de marché pour les fromages laitiers AOP par rapport aux
fromages non AOP.
Deux constats forts motivent un programme d’information et de promotion en faveur des
fromages, beurres et crèmes AOP :
1. Une forte méconnaissance du logo communautaire AOP et de sa signification par le
consommateur.
2. Une érosion continue des parts de marché des fromages AOP par rapport au marché
global des fromages (non AOP).
Ce contexte général a incité la présentation de ce présent programme. Celui-ci ne vise pas la
promotion d’une marque en particulier ou la consommation de produits sur la base de leur
origine spécifique (une AOP est par définition une garantie d’origine mais le programme vise
bien la promotion des AOP laitières en général, quel que soit leur origine spécifique. Il s’agit
d’un programme de promotion collective centré sur le concept d’Appellation d’Origine
Protégée, les produits laitiers qui y sont rattachés, et les valeurs dont ce signe de qualité est
porteur pour le consommateur. Ce programme prévoit une communication directe auprès des
consommateurs de la cible via le mass média TV et un important relai web. Des mesures
complémentaires (site web, livret de présentation des AOP laitières françaises et européennes,
carte de France et d’Europe des AOP laitières) permettent d’apporter des informations plus
détaillées. Enfin, une information sur le programme et ses différentes actions est prévue
auprès des professionnels afin de les inciter à la mise en avant du logo AOP et des produits
qui en sont porteurs.
En termes de conception, la stratégie proposée reprend les codes de communication des
marques, codes particulièrement pertinents pour faire de l’AOP un repère partagé entre
professionnels et consommateurs sur les valeurs clés.
Le parti pris créatif de la campagne met en avant les produits de manière à rendre le discours
plus explicite, moins institutionnel et d’avantage porté sur une entrée consommateur en
donnant envie de consommer les produits.
La stratégie de moyen est répartie entre des actions de promotion avec une concentration forte
sur les mass média TV et internet, et des actions d’informations destinées à développer les
messages portés à la cible ou à informer les professionnels pour mieux les impliquer dans la
prescription/mise en avant des AOP
Cibles :
Consommateurs actifs âgés de 25 à 49 ans et vivant dans les agglomérations de plus de
100.000 habitants (une population de 4.050.000 personnes).

Messages à communiquer :
- Une garantie d’origine et de savoir –faire.
- Une diversité de goûts et terroirs qui permettent partager des aventures sensorielles
uniques.
- Une participation au développement durable des territoires.
Le message central, proposé comme signature commune à toute la campagne est le suivant: «
AOP, la plus belle marque d’authenticité ». Le mot « marque » entre dans le champ
d’expression, à la fois dans son sens « utilitaire », et dans son sens « marqueur » ou « repère
». « L’authenticité » : c’est le cœur de promesse de l’AOP. C’est le mot qui résume le plus
complètement les thèmes à traiter. L’explicitation du logo par l’acronyme AOP inscrit en
toute lettre permet de travailler la mémorisation du sigle, de lui attribuer un nom, afin qu’il
soit plus parlant pour le consommateur. Un logo, trois lettres, le tout marqueur de
l’authenticité : la signature reprend en condensé le message à véhiculer par le programme,
pour in fine augmenter la notoriété du logo et en faire un repère dans l’acte d’achat.
En plus de cette signature transversale à toute la campagne, des prises de paroles plus
complètes auront lieu selon les différents supports de communication.
Actions, y inclus leur portée/volume et calendrier prévisionnel :
Action 1 : CAMPAGNE TV
Année 1 (Octobre-Décembre 2014) – Film générique de 30 secondes présentant l'ensemble
des AOP laitières qui insiste sur les valeurs attachées aux AOP. Il est estimé que ce film
touchera environ 32,5 mio de spectateurs pendant l'année 1.
Année 2 et 3 (janvier/novembre 2015 et janvier/novembre 2016)– Films personnalisés de 15
secondes : Conception et réalisation de 8 films courts, déclinaison du spot générique initial,
permettant un nombre de diffusion plus important, donc une meilleure répétition et au final
une meilleure mémorisation. Cible estimée à 112 mio de spectateurs pendant les 2 années.
Chaines: TF1, M6, FTV, TNT, Csat, NRJ
85
Budget estimatif de l'action 1:
Action 2 : CAMPAGNE INTERNET
 Réalisation de mini films de 10 secondes - zoom sur certains produits issus du film TV.
 Conception et réalisation de deux types de bannières dites « skin » (Flash avec
interactivité et capture de données). Ces bannières se développent et habillent l’ensemble
de l’écran lorsque l’internaute arrive sur la page. Elles attirent l’attention du
consommateur et l’invitent à visionner la suite de l’animation: message d’information ou
film court.
 Déploiement du plan media sur une sélection de sites internet en affinités avec la cible
(sites dédiés à la culture, aux loisirs mais aussi à la cuisine et aux gastronomes)
Diffusion en 50% en catch-up sur les sites TV et 50% en In-stream sur des sites en affinité
avec la cible : TF1, Canal+ et France Télévision , Réseau Hi-média, Marmiton, 750gr,
aufeminin.
Budget de l'action 2:
86
Action 3 : MATERIEL D’INFORMATION
 Création et impression d’un livret et de carte des AOP laitières de France et d’Europe.
Réalisation basée sur les contenus actuels enrichis par le concept de la nouvelle campagne
(image et messages).
 Capitalisation sur le nom et les contenus du site institutionnel existant: www.fromagesaop.com. Révision du site actuel par rapport aux exigences de la commission européenne.
Actualisation aux couleurs de la nouvelle campagne enrichie par les AOP laitières
européennes, adaptation des textes à la tonalité de la campagne européenne et intégration
du logo Européen. Rechercher et mettre en ligne de nouvelles recettes et encourager de
nouveaux producteurs et détaillants fromagers à s’inscrire en ligne.
Budget de l'action 3:
Action 4 : RELATIONS PRESSE PROFESSIONNELLE
Intervention ciblée auprès de la presse professionnelle (publications spécialisées les plus
significatives) pour donner de l’écho au programme de promotion et renforcer la participation
des transformateurs et distributeurs à la mise en avant des produits AOP, en particulier les
AOP laitières. Communiquer lors des périodes phares, telles que Pâques et l’après rentrée.
 Envoi et suivi de dossiers et communiqués de presse présentant la campagne de
communication et le matériel d’information existant afin que les opérateurs puissent
mettre en place des campagnes promotionnelles.
 Réalisation d’une annonce presse présentant les messages et outils relatifs à la campagne.
Exemples de la presse qui sera ciblée: "Le courrier des fromagers, Profession fromager, Point
de Vente, maxi cuisine, Cuisine Actuelle, Elle à table, Cuisine et vins de France, etc
Budget estimatif de l'action 4:
Action 5 : COMMUNICATION IN STORE
Intervention ciblée auprès des crémiers-fromages, prescripteurs indispensables des AOP de
par leur contact privilégié auprès des consommateurs. En effet, si ce circuit de distribution ne
représente que 5,3% des ventes totales de produits laitiers AOP, pour 72% des fromagers, les
AOP représentent plus de 50% du chiffre d’affaire réalisé sur la vente de fromages.
L'objectif est d'impliquer les détaillants dans la propagation de la campagne et sensibiliser la
cible via les détaillants fromagers.
Moyen: Réalisation et distribution d’un macaron représentant le logo AOP à tous les
détaillants et commerçant vendant des AOP laitières et diffusion auprès de la majorité des
détaillants qui sont près de 3 200 détaillants fromagers en France.
87
Impact prévisible :
L'impact prévu du programme est comme suit:
 Une notoriété assistée du logo portée à 40% sur la cible au terme de la 3ème année.
 Enrayer la baisse de part de marché des fromages AOP commercialisés en France par
rapport aux fromages non AOP avec pour objectif une augmentation de +1% des parts de
marché AOP entre 2014 et 2016.
Méthodes d’appréciation de l’impact :
Pour mesurer l’impact de ce programme sur l’objectif de notoriété du logo (taux de
reconnaissance assistée du logo AOP de 40% minimum sur le public cible par le programme
au terme des 3 ans de campagne) un état zéro a été réalisé en décembre 2012. Il sera à
nouveau réalisé en décembre 2013 par la société sélectionnée dans le cadre de ce programme
afin de se baser sur la même méthodologie (échantillon national représentatif de 1000
personnes de 15 ans et plus et d’un sur-échantillon de 200 individus âgés de 25 à 49 ans,
CSP+ correspondant à la cible média, enquête Online). Si le programme est retenu, cette
mesure de notoriété sera reconduite chaque année, durant les trois ans du programme, pour
mesurer l’évolution de la notoriété du logo AOP hors plan média. Cette évaluation aura lieu
autant que possible à la même période que celle de 2012 (décembre). Elle pourra toutefois
être légèrement décalée de manière à ne pas avoir lieu pendant une action en cours et éviter
ainsi un biais méthodologique. Au final, nous disposerons de 5 points de mesures
indépendantes des différents post-tests sur la notoriété du logo : 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015,
2016.

RÉSULTAT DE L’EXAMEN D’ÉLIGIBILITÉ ET DE LA QUALITE:
Remarques :
Il s'agit d'un programme avec une bonne stratégie, un message communautaire clair et bien
défini, et avec des actions qui parlent à la cible (les consommateurs de 25-49 ans).
Le programme utilise l'audiovisuel comme véhicule de messages ainsi que les canaux qui
peuvent assurer une dissémination large du message (télé, internet, presse spécialisée etc).
Remarques
1. Représentativité de l'organisme proposant
• P.6: «le CNAOL intervient uniquement en terme de coordination du programme et ne
participe pas financièrement». Quel investissement en termes de personnel et de temps
de travail représente l’intervention du CNAOL?
2. Procédure de mise en concurrence et critères de sélection des contractants
• Il y a lieu de préciser si CNIEL est un organisme de droit public ou pas; dans ce cas
confirmer qu’il y a eu mise en concurrence d’organismes d’exécution par un processus
transparent et en particulier confirmation du respect des règles spécifiques concernant
les organismes publics.
• Organisme d’évaluation: p.11: «Ration coût/qualité des prestations semble légèrement
élevé par rapport aux prestations habituelles». Il y a lieu de détailler: quelles
prestations sont plus chères, de combien, par rapport à quelle référence, et justifier le
choix.
3. Remarques générales sur le programme:
• Dans le titre du programme, la phrase 'logo communautaire AOP' devrait être
remplacée par 'logo AOP de l'UE'.
• De manière générale cette campagne se repose sur des valeurs d’authenticité mais ne
propose pas de message ou de visuel innovant. Quelles sont les garanties pour que la
qualité des supports choisis atteigne les objectifs du programme?
• Dans les visuels qui accompagnent la description du programme (screenshots vidéo,
affiche etc) il y a une interprétation du logo AOP qui n'est pas en conformité avec la
règlementation en vigueur. Il est rappelé que le logo AOP doit être présenté de
manière autonome et indépendante et il ne peut pas s'intégrer dans d'autres logos ou
identités visuelles.
4. Objectifs
• Selon le Règl. 501/2008, l'objectif des programmes de promotion des symboles
AOP/IGP/STG est d'accroitre la notoriété de ces symboles, mettre en avant les
avantages de ces produits et du système de qualité, traçabilité et contrôle qui les
accompagne, et de faire le lien clair entre produit et territoire. Dans ce contexte,
l'objectif du programme ne peut pas être la comparaison des produits laitiers qui
bénéficient d'une appellation AOP avec ceux qui ne bénéficient pas, ni la croissance
de la part du marché des produits laitiers AOP en détriment de la part de ceux qui ne
bénéficient pas d'une AOP. Il y a donc lieu de reformuler cet objectif.
5. Mesure d'impact
• L'"état zéro" sur base d'une étude montre une connaissance du logo de 19% de la
population française de plus de 15 ans. Etant donné que le groupe cible de ce
programme n'est qu'une fraction de cette population, cet état zéro ne peut pas être
90
%
50
20
30
100
utilisé comme base pour comparaison avec les résultats de la campagne. Le proposant
doit présenter un état zéro qui correspond au taux de reconnaissance du logo par le
groupe cible de la campagne. L'étude de 2012 qui montre un taux de reconnaissance
de 31% n'est pas une base fiable pour comparaison?
6. Description des actions
Action 1
• P.29: « toucher une moyenne de 157 millions de contacts»: sur quelle période?
• Budget estimatif p32: détailler le traitement horaire et le nombre d’heures de travail
prévu pour chaque catégorie de personnel.
Action 2
• Nous conseillons l'utilisation de l'extension web .eu pour le site internet du
programme. Pour plus d'information: http://www.ambitionhasanaddress.eu/fr
Action 3
• Il y a lieu de préciser quelle efficacité aura une brochure de 28 pages pour
communiquer avec la cible.
• P.50-51: Préciser les distributeurs contactés et les écoles visées. Préciser la portée
géographique de l’action.
Action 4
• P.57: «Presse spécialisée gastronomie (Maxi cuisine, Cuisine actuelle, etc..)»: il ne
s’agit pas de presse professionnelle. Cette presse est destinée au grand public.
Modifier en conséquence l’intitulé de l’action.
7. Budget des actions
Il y a lieu de donner des détails par rapport aux postes budgétaires suivants:
Action 2 (internet), poste 4 "frais techniques";
Détailler le coût pour l'achat d'espace dans les actions 1 (campagne TV), 2 (internet) et 4
(presse).

CONCLUSIONS:
Observation(s)
Par lettre du 23/7/2013 (Ares 2740248), la Commission a transmis à la Représentation
Permanente française les observations ci-dessus.
Par courrier du 22/08/2013 (ARES 2918632), nous avons obtenu la réponse aux observations
de la Commission.
Après analyse des réponses fournies par l'autorité compétente française, il résulte que dans le
budget de l'action 1 un montant de 32.551 € est prévu pour les honoraires du réalisateur d'un
film. Le détail fournis montre que le montant horaire payé à cette personne est de 814€.
La commission, considérant que ce taux horaire est excessif, a contacté les autorités françaises
pour demander une diminution de ce montant.
Par email du 13/9/2013 (ARES 3045975) les autorités françaises ont répondu favorablement à
la demande de la Commission et ont soumis un nouveau budget pour le programme de
promotion. Le nouveau montant prévu pour la rémunération horaire du réalisateur est de 284
€. Le budget total est modifié comme présenté ci-après. Le montant total du programme
accepté est de 6.100.307 € et le montant à cofinancé par la Commission est de 3.050.153,5€
La réponse des autorités françaises est considérée satisfaisante et le programme peut être
accepté pour un cofinancement communautaire.

Programme summary for the Spokespersons' service (brief description of products,
objectives, target groups, actions). Preferably in EN and 2 paragraphs max.
This programme, presented by the French inter-professional organisation FIL Rouge, aims to
promote the fresh and processed meat carrying the national quality logo "Label Rouge". The
programme is constructed around two main actions: A radio campaign with 5 radio spots to
be aired during 2 periods of each of the 3 years of the programme aiming to reach consumers
and more concretely women between 35 and 59 years old. At the same time a second action
will try to raise awareness among producers and distributors (via mailing and production of
promotional material) in order to prepare them for the increased demand of the products
caused by the radio advertising. Visuals and promotional material will be placed in
supermarkets and other sale outlets carrying the product. The objective of the campaign is to
raise the sales of the products concerned by 10% after 3 years and raise the awareness of the
consumer as a superior quality product.

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
Objectif(s) :
Les viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge représentent une production de qualité respectueuse
des territoires où elles sont produites et permettant de les faire vivre et de les dynamiser. Il est
essentiel de les conforter et de les développer. Il existe une attente des consommateurs pour
ces produits. Cette attente doit être activée par une campagne d’information des
caractéristiques spécifiques de l’apport du Label Rouge pour les viandes et charcuterie, afin
que les consommateurs en connaissent mieux l’intérêt et la valeur. De cet enjeu découlent
deux objectifs :
• Développer les ventes des viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge
•
Faire émerger les viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge, dans leur dimension de qualité
supérieure, dans l’esprit des consommateurs.
94
Stratégie :
La stratégie du programme est la suivante :
• Utiliser la communication radio pour informer les consommateurs sur la dimension
qualité supérieure des viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge,
•
Relayer cette communication en points de vente • Eduquer en développant un discours
pédagogique mais qui doit rester percutant et attractif pour les consommateurs.
•
Développer l’intérêt et l’expertise spécifique des distributeurs.
Le programme s’appuiera sur les axes stratégiques suivants:
1. Réaffirmer la qualité gustative supérieure des viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge.
D’après une étude Opinion Way menée fin 2009, les produits Label Rouge véhiculent une
image positive principalement axée sur les dimensions de garantie, de contrôle et de
qualité, ce qui place les valeurs gustatives au second plan. La qualité gustative supérieure
étant l’essence même du Label Rouge, il convient de valoriser cette particularité, d’autant
que le plaisir reste une attente forte de la majorité des consommateurs, et plus encore dans
le domaine des viandes et charcuteries, eu égard au prix de la viande. Dans un contexte de
crise, alors que le consommateur est très attentif à son budget (Sondage Opinion Way
mars 2013 : pour 78% des Français, le prix est le premier critère de choix des produits
alimentaires), l’actuelle montée des prix d’achat pénalise nettement la viande : le
consommateur réagit à la hausse des prix de la viande par une diminution proportionnelle
de ses achats (Etude IFOP, avril 2012). Il convient donc de réattribuer aux viandes et
charcuteries Label Rouge des valeurs fortes, basées sur le goût et le plaisir. Et une garantie
de goût est sécurisante par rapport au prix de la viande.
2. Ancrer les produits dans leur histoire. Les viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge sont les
résultantes d’un travail passionné, accompli par des professionnels qui maîtrisent un
authentique savoir-faire et travaillent dans le respect de l’animal (alimentation, conditions
d’élevage, etc.), de sa transformation, et s’engagent à chaque étape pour produire des
viandes et charcuteries de qualité. Le message devra s’attacher à mettre en avant cet
engagement humain des professionnels, et bien rappeler quelles sont les spécificités du
signe de qualité « Label Rouge » (cahier des charges strict, transparence, traçabilité des
produits).
Cibles :
Les cibles prioritaires sont :
1. Les femmes 35/59 ans, soit 10.600.000 individus, qui présentent une véritable opportunité
en termes d’affinité avec le message de valorisation des viandes et charcuteries Label
Rouge, et en termes de développement des ventes. En effet, les plus de 50 ans sont des
consommateurs habituels des produits Label Rouge. Quant aux 35/59 ans, ils déclarent à
51% consommer régulièrement des produits Label Rouge, et 39% en consommer rarement
(Etude Opinion Way, fin 2009) Sensibles à la qualité des produits qu’ils achètent pour les
cuisiner, ces consommateurs forment une cible attachée aux valeurs véhiculées par les
produits Label Rouge: il convient donc de valoriser le segment des viandes et charcuteries
Label Rouge auprès d’eux, pour augmenter la fréquence d’achat et la pénétration des
viandes et charcuteries sur cette cible.
2. Les acteurs de l’ensemble des filières :
a. Les filières amont, du côté de la production, et plus particulièrement les Organismes
de Défense et Garantie qui s’emploieront à valoriser cette campagne auprès de leurs
clients distributeurs.
b. Les filières aval, en particulier les surfaces de vente et les commerçants traditionnels
(artisans bouchers).
95
Thèmes :
Les thèmes traités sont les bénéfices apportés aux consommateurs par le Label Rouge
appliqué aux viandes bovine, ovine, porcine et aux charcuteries. Il s’agit de bénéfices
rationnels et émotionnels :
1. Les bénéfices rationnels :
 La garantie de qualité supérieure.
 La garantie d’un jugement porté par les consommateurs eux-mêmes.
 La garantie d’un cahier des charges de production agréé par l’Etat membre, d’une
traçabilité et de contrôles.
2. • Les bénéfices émotionnels:
 Valoriser le savoir-faire des hommes, alliant respect des terroirs, des animaux et du
produit fini.
 La possibilité de se valoriser par rapport à ses amis et à ses proches.
 L’appartenance à un groupe qui apprécie la qualité.

Messages à communiquer :

Le signe officiel de qualité Label Rouge, appliqué aux viandes et charcuteries, garantit
aux consommateurs une qualité supérieure aux normes commerciales habituelles.
 Le signe officiel de qualité Label Rouge est transparent et assure une parfaite
traçabilité des produits. Il permet d’identifier des viandes et charcuteries produites par
des éleveurs passionnés, engagés dans un cahier des charges strict, et garantit aux
consommateurs des produits de qualité.
Actions, y inclus leur portée/volume et calendrier prévisionnel :
Le programme prévoit deux actions:
ACTION 1. Une campagne radio.
La campagne radio vise les femmes entre 35/49 ans et les professionnels de la filière amont et
aval; Elle sera composé de 5 spots radiophoniques différents (bœuf, veau, agneau, proc,
charcuterie) qui seront diffusés pendant deux vagues d'étape de chaque année du programme,
à priori aux périodes suivantes :
 La première entre Pâques et Pentecôte,
 La seconde entre octobre et fin novembre.
Chaque vague publicitaire durera en moyenne 2 semaines. Les spots seront diffusés sur les
principales radios françaises (entre autres France inter, RTL, Europe 1, NRJ, Nostalgie etc).
96
Les messages à diffuser seront:
 la qualité gustative supérieure prouvée des produits,
 les systèmes de production dont ils sont issus,
 le signe officiel Label Rouge aux produits Viandes et Charcuteries.
Budget de l'action: EUR 3.258.260 comme suit:
ACTION 2. Une déclinaison de la campagne radio avec mise en place de signalétique et
affichage.
Cette action prévoit la production et distribution du matériel promotionnel (affiches, stickers,
dépliants, stop-rayons dans de 'kits'). Ces kits de matériel seront distribués aux artisans
bouchers, chefs de rayon 'boucherie' et 'charcuterie' des supermarchés, hypermarchés et
magasins de proximité; la production du matériel sera précédée par une campagne
d'information des filières concernées, un mailing de présentation de la campagne à l'ensemble
des points de vente.
97
Le coût total de cette action est €709.668 comme suit:
Impact prévisible :
Deux objectifs de la campagne :
1) Augmenter les volumes de ventes de viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge.
2) En faisant émerger les viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge, dans leur dimension de
qualité supérieure, dans l’esprit des consommateurs.
98
Impact prévisible du premier objectif de la campagne :
Les viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge représentent aujourd’hui, selon les produits, entre 1
et 6% de la production française. Il y a donc une marge de progression possible.
L’objectif est que cette campagne permette de faire augmenter en moyenne de 10% en 3 ans
les volumes de viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge.
Pour mesurer cette évolution, FIL Rouge et Sylaporc disposent d’un outil : le bilan de
production annuel des viandes et charcuterie sous signe officiel de qualité. Chaque année, FIL
Rouge et Sylaporc récoltent via des questionnaires auprès des ODG un certain nombre de
chiffres clés permettant de connaître et de caractériser les filières viandes et charcuteries sous
signe de qualité.
Les informations récoltées sont de plusieurs types :
- Information sur les volumes annuels de production
- Information sur les opérateurs impliqués dans les filières (nombre et localisation
géographique des éleveurs, nombre et identité des entreprises d’abattage, découpe,
conditionnement…)
- Information sur les débouchés pour les produits Label Rouge (type de circuit de
distribution…)
Ainsi, en prenant comme base les données du bilan de production annuel avant le début de la
campagne de communication et en les comparant avec les données du bilan annuel de
production après les 3 ans de campagne de communication, il sera possible de savoir quelle a
été l’évolution de la production de viande et charcuteries Label Rouge et ainsi de mesurer
l’impact de la campagne.
Les chiffres du bilan annuel 2011, concernant la production de viandes et charcuterie Label
Rouge :
Impact prévisible du second objectif de la campagne :
1. L’émergence des viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge auprès de la cible :
a. Les femmes de 35/59 ans représentent plus de 10 600 000 individus.
Le plan media prévu permettra d’atteindre les performances suivantes :
i. Plus de 750 spots diffusés par vague.
ii. Une couverture de près de 75% de la cible media (soit près de 8 millions de femmes
de 35/59 ans).
iii. Chaque vague permettra de générer plus 90 millions de contacts.
iv. Les femmes touchées entendront, en moyenne, près de 10 fois le message « Viandes
et Charcuteries Label Rouge »
b. La cible retrouvera également le message véhiculé dans les lieux d’achat, à travers les
5.000 kits de PLV qui seront diffusés en GMS et boucheries artisanales.
2. L’émergence des viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge auprès des professionnels de la
filière :
a. Fortement impliquées dans la définition et la mise en œuvre du programme
communautaire, les ODG joueront un rôle moteur en valorisant fortement la campagne
auprès des différents maillons de la filière : producteurs, abatteurs, transformateurs,
commerçants et GMS.
99
b. Par le biais des actions destinées à sensibiliser la distribution en amont du lancement de
la campagne, on estime que les 13 centrales principales seront touchées (Auchan,
Carrefour, Cora, E. Leclerc, Géant/Casino, Système U, Intermarché, Simply Market,
Supermarchés Match, Monoprix, Carrefour Market, Carrefour Proxi). Près de 6.500
magasins d’enseigne et 2 000 boucheries artisanales seront ainsi touchées, via l’envoi
du mailing d’information avec bon de commande de la PLV.
c. Il est estimé à 50% le taux de remontées du bon de commande : soit environs 5.000 kits
commandés (sachant qu’une même GMS pourra commander 2 kits : l’un pour son rayon
viandes, l’autre pour son rayon charcuterie).
d. Le taux de pose de la PLV est estimé à 60%.

Remarques :
1. Présentation du marché
Le marché des viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge en termes de volumes est présenté,
mais le dossier ne contient pas de détails en ce qui concerne la valeur du marché en €. En
conséquence, il n'est pas possible de calculer le rapport coût/efficacité du programme,
étant donné que nous ne sommes pas en mesure de savoir quelle sera l'augmentation des
ventes des produits concernés en termes de valeur par rapport au coût total du programme
(4,8 mio €). Une information sur la valeur du marché concerné par le programme doit être
ajoutée.
Etant donné que la production des viandes et charcuteries Label Rouge se situe entre 1%
et 5,9% de la production totale des viandes et charcuteries en France, l'organisme
proposant doit présenter une estimation de l'effet de cette campagne sur les commandes et
102
inclure dans la proposition les éléments qui garantissent que le secteur a la capacité de
production pour faire face aux commandes élevées.
2. Groupes cibles
L'idée d'impliquer les producteurs ("filière aval") avec des actions de sensibilisation (via
mailing etc) est bonne, par contre ce groupe ne peut pas figurer comme cible principale de
la campagne (voir annexe I du Règl. 501/2008). Il y a lieu de clarifier le rôle de ce groupe
cible dans le programme ainsi que les moyens avec lesquels ce groupe sera touché par la
campagne (i.e. pourquoi et comment ce groupe est une des cibles de la campagne radio?).
Il existe une confusion en ce qui concerne le premier groupe cible
(consommateurs/responsables d'achat): dans certains endroits cette cible est les femmes de
35-49 ans (i.e. page 17), dans d'autres les femmes entre 35 et 59 ans (i.e. page 15). Merci
de clarifier.
3. Objectifs
Objectif no 1 : Une augmentation de ventes de 10% sur 3 ans est proposée. Cet objectif est
peu ambitieux au regard de la dynamique actuellement constatée (cf. entre 2010 et 2011 :
+5,1% pour le bœuf LR, +4,8% pour l'agneau LR). Sur cette base ne peut-on pas prévoir
un objectif plus ambitieux que 10% sur 3 ans ?
Objectif no 2: Bien que le terme de "qualité supérieure" soit le terme de référence dans la
définition pour le Label Rouge, ce terme est très vague car on ne sait pas de quelle qualité
on parle. Le consommateur ne sait pas définir quelles garanties de qualité existent sous le
Label Rouge et en particulier, la dimension "qualité gustative", valeur socle de ce label,
n'est pas assez connue. En plus, il y a une certaine confusion dans l'esprit du
consommateur face aux différents labels de qualité dont notamment les systèmes de
qualité européens: il convient de bien clarifier la base du Label Rouge pour éviter toute
confusion avec la base des systèmes communautaires (AOP, IGP, etc…). Il y a lieu donc
de reformuler l'objectif pour le cibler sur la qualité gustative garantie par le Label Rouge.
Objectif no 2: La valeur cible proposée pour cet objectif est "75% de la cible touchée, qui
entendra en moyenne plus de 10 fois le message". Cet objectif n'est pas correctement
défini car il concerne le succès de l'action même et pas l'impact de l'action sur la cible. La
mesure de cet objectif doit se faire au regard de la perception des consommateurs quant à
la principale garantie offerte par le Label Rouge (cf. les chiffres mentionnés dans la
proposition: 32% savent que ce label est une garantie de goût supérieur vérifié par des
consommateurs). Il faut mesurer cet objectif par rapport à la perception des
consommateurs sur la notoriété du Label Rouge et les garanties offertes par le Label
Rouge, et fixer des objectifs quantifiés en conséquence. Les parties "impact" devront aussi
être revues.
4. Evaluation
Les modalités d'évaluation du programme doivent être revues car elles ne sont pas
cohérentes avec les objectifs fixés.
En ce qui concerne l'objectif n°1 (augmentation des ventes par 10%), l'évaluation ne peut
pas se faire sur base du "bilan de production annuel sous signe de qualité". L'évaluation
doit se faire sur base des résultats des ventes pour lesquels un mesurage situation "zéro"
doit être aussi prévu. Il est aussi important de bien définir le produit qui est 'viandes et
charcuteries Label Rouge' et pas 'viandes sous signe de qualité' en général.
En ce qui concerne l'objectif n° 2 (notoriété du LR/connaissance des garanties LR), la
méthode d'évaluation proposée (mesure des taux de réception et de pose de la PLV) est
insuffisante, car elle ne permet pas de constater si l'objectif (augmentation de la notoriété)
est atteint.
En ce qui concerne l'évaluation des campagnes radio, pour lesquelles des post-tests sont
proposés, il faut préciser les indicateurs mesurés dans ces post-tests et assurer qu'un
mesurage situation "zéro" existe ou est prévu, et faire le lien avec l'enquête de 2009.
La proposition mentionne des thèmes d'évaluation spécifiques pour évaluer la campagne
103
(page 27). Il y a lieu de clarifier les modalités d'évaluation et de lier ces 6 évaluations aux
objectifs globaux, si besoin déclinés en objectifs spécifiques et préciser le contenu de ces
évaluations, par exemple :
"interrogation d'un panel de 50 distributeurs" sur quoi ? quel est le lien avec les objectifs
de la campagne ?
"mesures quantitative des perception des consommateurs vis-à-vis des viandes et
charcuterie LR" : quelle est la différence avec les post-tests de l'Institut OpinionWay ?
5. Budget
S'il s'agit des mêmes 5 spots qui seront diffusés pendant les 3 ans de la campagne,
pourquoi des frais de production de ces spots sont calculés 3 fois (pour chaque année de la
campagne séparément?)
Selon le budget, le matériel promotionnel sera produit pendant toute la durée de la
campagne et pas en une seule fois au début. Pourquoi?

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
Objectif(s) :



Accroître l’importation des fromages de l’Union Européenne de 3 % tous les ans de la
campagne (en volume).
Accroître l’exportation des fromages français de 8 % tous les ans de la campagne (en
volume).
Accroître la connaissance et la consommation des fromages d’Europe auprès de la
cible de 10 % chaque année du programme.
106
Stratégie :
Les fromages sont parmi les produits laitiers, la catégorie la plus appréciée des Américains.
Plus de 96% des ménages en achètent.
On compte aujourd’hui plus de 300 variétés de fromage disponibles sur le marché américain.
La mozzarella avec 10,6 pounds (4,82 kg) et le cheddar avec 10,1 pounds (4,59 kg) par an et
par habitant, sont les deux variétés les plus consommées.
En même temps, la production américaine de fromages poursuit sa montée en puissance, en
quantitatif comme en qualitatif. Le marché du « Natural Cheese » aux Etats - Unis est en
progression constante depuis 10 ans et s’accélère depuis les deux dernières années avec
notamment la croissance des fromages de l’Etat du Wisconsin. Les campagnes d’information
et de promotion conduites par les « Cheese Boards » de Californie et du Wisconsin mettent en
avant les productions locales et artisanales et promeuvent notamment leurs fromages haut de
gamme.
Selon une étude récente, auprès des 25-49 ans vivant dans des foyers dont le revenu annuel
net est supérieur à 75.000 $ et dans des zones urbaines, il ressort que l’opinion globale des
fromages d’Europe, reste très bonne (62% les aiment beaucoup). L’image des fromages
européens reste largement marquée par les dimensions de qualité, de bon goût, de caractère et
d’origine.
Ainsi le différentiel existant avec l’image des fromages locaux se renforce sur les dimensions
qui étaient déjà les forces des fromages européens (qualité, caractère, origine locale) mais
s’est affaibli sur leurs faiblesses (utilisation en sandwiches, en cuisine, appréciation par toutes
la famille, différentiel prix important…).
Alors que les importations de fromages, toutes provenances confondues, baissent de 5% en
volume entre 2009 et 2012, celles des fromages européens enregistrent une hausse de 14%.
En valeur, sur la même période, les fromages européens gagnent près de 10 points de plus que
les fromages étrangers en général. Ce programme vise donc à tirer profit de l'accroissement de
la demande du marché américain en fromages européens en général et français en particulier.
La stratégie consiste à promouvoir les fromages d’Europe en utilisant les fromages français
comme illustration pour mieux positionner ces fromages face aux concurrents : les fromages
locaux.
107
Le programme visera l’accroissement de la connaissance, la diversité et l’accessibilité des
fromages par :
 L’éducation du consommateur à de nouvelles occasions d’utilisations en phase avec les
habitudes de consommation locale.
 Une meilleure visibilité en points de vente et l’utilisation de ce point de contact comme
vecteur d’éducation du consommateur.
 Des actions qui permettront aux consommateurs d’être sensibilisés directement aux
fromages.
 Pour, enfin, accroître les volumes des exportations et toucher directement la cible en
s’appuyant sur les actions de communication proposées.
Cibles :

3. CHEESES OF EUROPE POP UP STORE AUSTIN – TEXAS ET NEW YORK
Un "Pop Up Store " est un espace de présentation éphémère, de tous types de produits, d’une
durée d’un jour à un ou deux mois. Il permet en l’occurrence de faire découvrir et déguster les
fromages d’Europe dans des situations conviviales, par le biais de recettes à base de fromages
d’Europe préparées par des chefs de renom.
Deux « Pop Up Stores » d’environ 6 000 m² sont prévus pour une durée de deux jours, chaque
année du programme : le 7 et le 8 mars à Austin ; le 5 et le 6 septembre à New York. Le
vendredi soir sera réservé à la presse nationale et locale, soit 250 journalistes ciblés (presse
écrite, presse radio et télévision et bloggeurs) ; le samedi sera consacré au grand public.
Chaque « Pop Up Store » sera filmé en format vidéo et mis en ligne sur le site internet
www.thecheesesofeurope.com.
Dates et lieux : En années 1, 2 et 3 du programme :
113
 le 7 et le 8 mars : Austin – Texas - dans une galerie d’Art, lors du festival de musique le
plus important des Etats-Unis, le SXSW, et pour lequel des consommateurs de tout le
pays s’y rendent. Cet évènement nous garantira un nombre important de passage à notre
« Pop Up Store ».
 le 5 et le 6 septembre : New York – dans un espace du quartier très fréquenté de SOHO.
BUDGET: 282 969,40 € pour 3 ans (Austin) et 269 497,77 € pour 3 ans (New York), soit
552.467,17 en total.
BUDGET TOTAL DE L'ACTION 4: 962.665,15 €
Impact prévisible :
Les objectifs du programme sont:
1. Accroître l’importation des fromages de l’Union Européenne de 3 % tous les ans de la
campagne (en volume).
L'objectif n'est pas mésuré.
2 Accroître l’exportation des fromages français de 8 % tous les ans de la campagne (en
volume).
L’objectif du programme est d’augmenter de 8% par an les volumes exportés de fromages
français vers les Etats-Unis à partir de la valeur de 2012, soit une hausse moyenne de 1.879
tonnes par an.
L’impact de ce programme sur la filière laitière peut être approché à partir des données de
l’Observatoire des prix et des marges de FranceAgriMer suivantes :
 La production de 1 kg de fromage (base : Emmental) nécessite 13 litres de lait.
 Le prix moyen du litre de lait payé au producteur en 2012 était d’environ 0,329 €.
Une hausse moyenne annuelle des exportations de fromages de 1 879 tonnes
occasionnerait un surplus de demande de lait de 24,4 millions de litres, soit une croissance
en valeur de 8.4mio EUR par an.
3 Accroître la connaissance et la consommation des fromages d’Europe auprès de la cible de
10 % chaque année du programme.
Dès le début du programme, un pré-test sera conduit par le cabinet d’évaluation sélectionné
afin de connaitre le pourcentage des consommateurs ciblés quant à leur connaissance et
consommation des fromages d’Europe. A partir des résultats, l’objectif est d’en accroître
leur connaissance et par là-même, leur consommation de 10% par année pour atteindre
30% à la fin du programme.
Les études d’évaluation à la fin de chaque année du programme, permettront de mesurer
cette évolution chez les consommateurs ciblés au concept « Cheeses of Europe – Make It
Magnifique».
Aujourd’hui, le nombre de consommateurs ciblés est de : 17.600.000, actifs dans la
tendance des « Food Adventurers ».

fromages d’Europe, soit entre 300.000 et
600.000 consommateurs à la fin du programme.
Ces consommateurs seront en mesure
d’influencer leurs amis en leur servant des
recettes à base de ces fromages et ainsi, en faire
d’autres consommateurs fidèles.
Le matériel PLV encouragera les chefs de
rayons des 374 points de vente de mieux
connaître les fromages d’Europe et ainsi de
mieux les référencer sur leur linéaires. Aussi, le
dépliant permettra à 250.000 consommateurs de
découvrir les fromages d’Europe.
Le nombre de consommateurs qui participeront
à cet évènement, via les bannières, le e-mail, les
réseaux sociaux, l’annonce presse et sur le site
www.thecheesesofeurope.com devrait atteindre
4.000 à 5.000 tous les ans soit, 12.000 à 15.000
consommateurs à la fin des trois années du
programme.

soit un nombre approximatif d’un total de 4.000
clients par année.
Tous les ans, 1.800 consommateurs
découvriront les fromages d’Europe lors de
chaque « Pop Up Store », soit un total de 3.600
consommateurs à la fin de chaque année du
programme.
75 retombées de presse / blogs qui mentionnent
les recettes préparées lors de ces manifestations,
sont également attendues à la fin de chacune des
manifestations, soit 150 retombées annuelles.
Ces retombées sont suivies par environ 1% de la
cible visée, soit une moyenne de 170.000
consommateurs, soit un total annuel de 340.000
consommateurs qui sont susceptibles de
préparer les recettes aux fromages d’Europe
chez eux.
Méthodes d’appréciation de l’impact :
L’impact de ce programme sur la filière laitière peut être approché à partir des données de
l’Observatoire des prix et des marges de FranceAgriMer.

RÉSULTAT DE L’EXAMEN D’ÉLIGIBILITÉ ET DE LA QUALITE:
Remarques :
Objectifs:
1. Objectifs
 Le premier objectif (accroître l’importation des fromages de l’Union Européenne de 3%
tous les ans de la campagne en volume) n'est ni mesuré, ni détaillé. Le texte du programme
ne contient aucun élément sur les méthodes d'évaluation de cet objectif. Il n'y a aucune
indication qui permet de juger cet objectif réaliste.
 Il y a lieu de préciser si le 3% d'augmentation des importations des fromages de
provenance de l'UE aux Etats-Unis comprend le 8% de l'augmentation des importations
des fromages français, où il s'agit d'une augmentation de 3% qui concerne les 'importations
de fromages de provenance UE-27 (ie hors France).
 Quels moyens met en œuvre l'organisme proposant pour atteindre et garantir
l'augmentation de 3% en ce qui concerne les importations des fromages européens?
 Le 3ème objectif (augmentation de la notoriété des fromages UE 10% par an pour arriver à
30% à la fin du programme) semble assez optimiste et l'organisme proposant n'a pas inclus
117
les éléments qui permettent d'apprécier l'exactitude de cette évaluation. De plus, le point de
départ pour cet objectif (point 'zéro' – notoriété actuelle) n'est pas défini.
2. Messages
 Les messages du programme doivent être développés. La mention de quelques fromages
non français ne suffit pas pour donner une bonne dimension européenne au programme. Il
faut développer les aspects de la PAC qui donnent le caractère spécial aux fromages
européens/français. Il ne suffit pas de dire que les fromages européens/français sont bons.
Il faut expliquer pourquoi ces fromages sont "magnifiques" (tradition, savoir-faire, qualité
du lait, contrôles, respect pour la nature et les animaux). La dimension européenne du
programme pourrait s'améliorer avec la présence de quelques fromages non français lors
des actions face-to-face (dans la stratégie actuelle du programme ces fromages sont
exclus).
3. Description des actions
Action 2, volet 1 (site web)
 Les noms de détaillants peuvent figurer en 2ème niveau seulement (pas sur la page
d'accueil, mais sur une page séparée qui sera liée à la page d'accueil). L'organisme
proposant doit s'assurer que cette rubrique contient la plus large liste de détaillants et que
tous les fromages sont présents.
 Nous conseillons l'utilisation de l'extension web .eu pour le site internet du programme.
Pour plus d'information: http://www.ambitionhasanaddress.eu/fr
Action 3
 Pour mieux apprécier le rapport-coût-efficacité de cette action, il y a lieu de donner plus de
détails sur les points budgétaires suivants:
- points de vente: plus d'1.000.000€ pour hôtesses: il est nécessaire de donner plus de
détails à propos de ce poste budgétaire (nombre de personnes, nombre d'heures, coût
par heure).
- Formation ambassadeurs: Expliquer le coût de 9.000€ par formation pour former 5
personnes par année (45.000€ par année), et indiquer pourquoi il faut former des
nouvelles personnes chaque année. De plus, le texte indique 5 ambassadeurs, mais 6
régions sont citées (pages 42-43).
- Serait–il possible de présenter la liste de fromages qui seront promus lors des actions
'points de vente'?
Action 4
 (volet 2, concours): Il y a lieu de donner plus de détails concernant le coût de 3.000€ par
personne pour réceptionner les recettes du public, en total 18.000€ pour les 3ans.
 (volet 2, concours): Ce concours prévoit une limitation au nombre de fromages éligibles
pour participation. Pourquoi? Nous notons aussi qu'il ne sera pas possible de participer au
concours avec une recette qui utilise des fromages européens mais non français. Il est
nécessaire de justifier cette limitation et expliquer sa cohérence avec le champ
d'application du programme.
 (volet 2, concours): Selon le proposant, "ce type de concours attire environ 800 à 1.000
candidats dont 50% sont des chefs de cuisine qui œuvrent dans la restauration. Aussi, ces
chefs, prépareront les recettes présentées au concours dans leurs établissements et feront
connaître les fromages d’Europe à leurs clients, soit un nombre approximatif d’un total de
4.000 clients par année". Le proposant doit fournir des données concrètes sur l'estimation
de ce public cible. De plus, il n'y a aucune garantie que les chefs présenteront ces recettes
dans leurs établissements. Il y a lieu donc d'expliquer sur quelle base l'impact de cette
action est calculé.
118
 (volet 3 "pop-up store"): Il est important de s'assurer que toutes les entreprises-membres du
CNIEL qui sont intéressées puissent participer et que cette exposition propose la gamme la
plus large possible de fromages.
 (volet 3 "pop-up store"): Il est nécessaire de fournir des éléments qui permettront
l'appréciation du rapport coût-efficacité de cette action. Il faut expliquer les coûts suivants:
coût de 1.919,68€ par communiqué de presse, coût de la location de l'espace: 7.581,37€ par
jour à Texas et 7.640 € à NY, prix de location des vitrines réfrigérées 1.200€ par unité. De
plus, si nous comparons avec le nombre total de visiteurs attendus à chaque pop-up store
(1800 pax, p.65), nous arrivons à un prix de 78,3€ par participant sur les 3 années à Texas,
puis 74,8€ par personne à New York. Le proposant doit justifier cette action par rapport à
son coût qui semble élevé.
 (volet 3 "pop-up store"): Le proposant estime que les retombées de presse sur ces pop-up
stores seront suivies par environ 1% de la cible visée, soit une moyenne de 170.000
consommateurs, soit un total annuel de 340.000 consommateurs qui sont susceptibles de
préparer les recettes aux fromages d’Europe chez eux. Il y a lieu d'expliquer sur quelle base
cette estimation est faite.
4. Evaluation et mesure d'impact
 Page 71 Mesure de l’impact: Il y a lieu de préciser le «cabinet spécialisé» qui fera
l’évaluation. Les explications fournies sur l’évaluation portent sur l’évaluation de
l’exécution des actions et pas sur l'impact du programme. Il faut expliquer comment sera
mesuré l’impact global du programme sur base des 3 objectifs fixés.

CONCLUSIONS:
Observation(s)
Par lettre du 23/7/2013 (Ares 2740248), la Commission a transmis à la Représentation
Permanente française les observations ci-dessus.
119
Par courrier du 22/08/2013 (ARES 2918632), nous avons obtenu la réponse aux observations
de la Commission.
Après examen des réponses fournies par l'organisme proposant, un doute reste concernant le
rapport coût-efficacité de l'action 3, dans laquelle on constate qu'un prix de plus d'1.000.000
d'euros sera dépensé pour honoraires d'hôtesses. Le calcul fourni par le proposant démontre
que le coût horaire par hôtesse est de 85,58 euros. Ce prix semble exagéré.
Pour cette raison AGRI-D.4 a pris contact avec l'autorité compétente française pour demander
une diminution de ce budget consacré aux honoraires d'hôtesses.
L'organisme proposant a réagi par email à la demande de la Commission
(Ares(2013)3045975) et a proposé un nouveau prix pour ce poste budgétaire (507.600 euros
au lieu de 1.026.960 euros).
Le nouveau budget présente est comme suit:

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAMME :
Objective(s)
1. Informing about the content, functioning and Community character of the EU Quality
logos and the EU legislation behind it;
2. Better information of the consumers (and their associations), retailers, professionals from
the food sector, journalists and opinion makers about the PDO, PGI, TSG logos;
3. Encourage producers and processors who are not producing under an EU quality logo to
adhere to these systems
4. Stimulate the demand and the consumption of the quality products by informing consumers
about the existence, meaning and advantages of the quality schemes, and by making them
acquainted with the logos, the conditions necessary to obtain the denominations, the
required checks and the traceability system
5. To induce consumers to make more informed and conscious choices, by tackling also
issues such as food safety, seasonal production, sustainability and environment friendly
production, animal welfare.
123
6. To give higher value to EU quality logos by pinpointing the strict link with the territory of
origin and its community and the in order to differentiate them from imitations and abuses
Strategy :
The following are the main axes of the strategy of the campaign:
- use of "testimonial" products: the concrete agricultural quality products that will be used in
the campaign are real examples of "tangible objects" representing and translating into
practice the EU concepts and policies behind the "intangible object" which is the EU
quality logo;
- target groups (from various countries) with adapted messages, places and ways of
conveying messages in function of the differences in the variety of agricultural products,
knowledge of the EU logos, consumption habits;
- content of communication: coherent messages to be conveyed constitute a key part of the
programme for the attainment of the objectives and expected results. It is necessary to
create tailored, short and easy to memorize key messages that will convey the EU
dimension of the programme and its goals. Attractive and identifiable images will have to
accompany the messages for a better recognition of the programme and the EU quality
policies.
- appropriate mix of instruments: PR, events and meetings, publication of photos and short
messages in press, diffusion of information materials.
Target group(s) :
TG1: consumers and their associations – in particular persons responsible for household
purchases;
TG 2: persons working in the agri-food sector: importers, distributors buyers, retailers,
producers, processors.
TG 3: HORECA – chefs, owners of renowned restaurants.
TG4: journalists, opinion makers.

Messages to be conveyed :
The implementing body will have the task of creating short messages that will characterize
the campaign. They will accompany the distinctive graphical images of the programme and
will be present on the information material, as an introduction to more detailed and deepened
texts, therefore, for obvious reasons, the messages will have to be short but contain key words
that will attract the attention on the EU dimension of the programme, its objectives, the value
of the designations and the EU agricultural production, for which the testimonial products are
representatives. The messages will reflect the themes above mentioned.

Anticipated impact:
The quantified objectives set by the campaign are:
- 10% increase of awareness about the EU quality logos/schemes;
- 5% increase of sales of the promoted products in the target markets, with an opening of the
Czech market for the Stilfter cheese (probably no sales in this market nowadays).
An objective that will be measured and is expected to be positive, but has no precise
quantified indicator is the "increase of the number of certified products in the target markets"
following the campaign.
The main features of the evaluation method are the following:
The effectiveness of the campaign will be evaluated through a set of qualitative and
quantitative assessments.
All the results will be presented in an evaluation report prepared by an independent body after
the campaign is finished.
Quantitative research will be based on 2 sets – a pre-test and a post-test at the end of the
campaign.

RESULT OF THE ELIGIBILITY AND QUALITY EXAMINATION
Remarks:
In application of Article 7(1) of Council Regulation 3/2008, the Member States concerned
shall examine the suitability of proposals for programmes and shall verify their conformity
with the said Regulation, the guidelines drawn up and the relevant specifications. They shall
also check that the programme offers value for money.
In application of Article 8(2) of Commission Regulation 501/2008, the programmes submitted
shall contain sufficient detail to comply with the applicable rules and enable their cost/benefit
ratio to be evaluated.
In application of Article 19(1) of Regulation 501/2008 an annual report must contain an
evaluation of the results obtained.
However:
1. On p. 18 it is mentioned that the selection of the implementing body was based on
contacting directly (by the Proposing Organisation, by mailed letter) 5 agencies (3 Italian,
2 German ones) in the market with good references, and having a good reputation in
implementing in the past activities similar to the one proposed hereby – the 5 agencies
have been invited to present their proposals for the selection of the Implementing Body: in
particular no publication of the call for tenders was made in the website(s) of the
Proposing Organisation(s) and/or of the Italian Ministry of Agriculture – the competent
national authority is invited to give an additional confirmation that the procedure was
competitive; failure to provide convincing proof that the procedure was competitive will
have to result in considering this procedure as void and in non-retaining the programme
for co-financing;
2. On p. 141 the description of the expected impact of the programme and of the
accompanying evaluation method starts, but it contains the following shortcomings to be
removed by providing appropriate thorough improvements as listed below in the next
points:
- on p. 149 there is no indication of the evaluation method to be used for assessing the
expected 10% increase in awareness (what samples' sizes, which target groups, what
technique of assessing the increase – interviews?, CATI?, other techniques?); moreover
it should be specified more in detail to which measured target this 10% expected
increase relates – is it an average increase for all target groups in all target countries, or
is it a minimum increase expected for each target group in each target country? Other
ways of interpreting this 10% increase? The indicator is also mentioned on p. 153 but
still there isn't any clarity as far as the way of measuring this indicator is concerned.
Please provide thorough and unambiguous explanations on this indicator; for the sake of
clarity, it is suggested to specify one by one in a summary table the expected increase of
awareness in each target group in each of the target markets. Finally please confirm if
there is no existing information about the consumers' behavior towards products bearing
EU quality logos, on p. 153 it is mentioned that no such available studies exist, which
131
seems to be rather unlikely for all or most of the target markets of the programme which
are among the most developed in consuming quality products; moreover to be noted that
contrarily to what is suggested, on p. 39 a study on relevant consumer behaviors in Italy
is mentioned and more in general the description of the target markets on p. 41-57
demonstrates the likely existence of supporting research and data;
- on p. 150-151 the increase of the number of registered PDO/PGI/TSG products is
expected, however there is no quantified estimate of the expected increase, especially
due to the effects of the programme, the mere assurance that a measurement of the
difference between the starting point of the number of existing registered products and
the final figures will take place is not a sufficiently defined objective (this by the way is
a description that should be in the column "instruments of verification" and not
"indicator"). Moreover is it not justified to foresee a proportionally different increase for
different markets, due to differences in production and consumption trends? Moreover
is it not possible to foresee in the programme a direct verification that a certain product
has been registered directly in relation to the efforts of the campaign (contacts with
producers etc.)?
- on p. 152 the increase of sales by 5% is foreseen, but it is not clear if it is an average
increase for all promoted products in all target countries, or is it a minimum increase
expected for each promoted product in each target country? Other ways of interpreting
this 5% increase? If there are no sales of Stilfser cheese in the Czech Republic, it is not
correct mathematically to foresee a "5% increase", as the starting point is zero (here it is
also worth noting that there is an inconsistency in the programme, as on p. 114 it is
stated that "all testimonial products are currently present in all 4 target markets", which
would include the Stilfser cheese in Czech Republic). Clear and unambiguous data on
the current levels of sales of the 4 testimonial products in each target market have to be
provided, moreover for the sake of clarity, it is suggested to specify in a summary table
one by one the increase of each of the promoted product to each of the target markets.
Finally, in the column "instruments of verification" the description of the measurement
of the sales increase should be indicated (what type of statistics?, national?, from the
sector?, what calendar of measurements?).
- some objectives (p. 152) do not have an appropriate impact indicator: one of these
objectives is "to induce consumers to make more informed and conscious choices, by
tackling also issues such as food safety, seasonal production, sustainability and
environment friendly production, animal welfare", the second one is "to give higher
value to EU quality logos by pinpointing the strict link with the territory of origin and
its community and the in order to differentiate them from imitations and abuses" please explain how these programme's objectives are going to be measured? (the mere
measurement of a possible increase of sales of the promoted quality products, as it is
suggested on p. 152, does not have to fully reflect the achievement of these objectives)
- on p. 152 the information on the sales of Alto Adige apples PGI in the Czech Republic
is not expressed clearly;
- on p. 153 a general indication of the intention to perform ex-ante, running and ex-post
tests/evaluations is presented, however the calendar of these tests should be much more
precise.
3. The market study on p. 60-61 is not sufficient (it doesn't present any trends/data on the
testimonial products, the only information in the programme eing at p. 152)), moreover it
contains no information on Austrian and Czech markets – please provide information on
the trends concerning sales and knowledge about the EU quality logos and products (and
in particular the testimonial products) proposed under these schemes by referring to the
broad presentation of these two target markets on p. 51-57;
4. On p. 72 – the description of the messages to be conveyed and of the campaign's visual is
vague and should contain more information so that it can be assessed already at the stage
132
of the proposal that they are well suited to allow achieving the objectives of the
programme, that they will form a coherent vision of the three testimonial products having
a common strong local identity, and that they will efficiently reflect the themes of the
programme - tentative examples of messages and visuals should be provided;
5. Few if any actions are directly aimed at (potential new) producers in this campaign
according to the current description of the programme, therefore it is needed to specify
better which of them are aimed at them, and how they can effectively contribute to the
expected increase of the number of new producers in the quality schemes;
Moreover:
6. On p. 80 the distribution of the quantities of the brochures and gadgets for each action and
target market where they'd be used should be indicated, apart from the general total of
388.500 and 22.500 units. Explanations on p. 80 are too vague. This information is
important in order to assess the value for money of this action and the possible impact of
the programme in all target groups;
7. On p. 75-76 the duration, indicative location and the number of invitees and the key of
their selection of the press conference, of the study tours and of the gastronomic event (the
latter only for Austria and Czech Republic) should be indicated; explanations on p. 91-92
are not sufficient; in particular it is not clear who would be the invitees to the study tours
(only journalists?, producers?, other targets?); moreover please explain why the kick-off
conference doesn't take place earlier as compared to other actions of the programme
(p.135), normally this should rather be foreseen right at the beginning of a campaign;
8. On p. 81, 83, 85, 88 (basic PR, action A.1.1) please describe in detail who would be
running the PR office, by indicating the type of personnel category, the quantity of time
needed for this service and their hourly rates;
9. On p. 82, 84, 86, 89 the items "predisposition of various materials" and "gadget" should
be explained more in detail – what is this cost for, if the design and production costs of
these items have already been foreseen before in the programme;
1. 10. On p. 82, 84, 87, 90 ("cooperation with media") please provide a much deeper break
down of the cost and describe in detail who would be running the cooperation, by
indicating the type of personnel category, the quantity of time needed for this service and
their hourly rates;
10. On p. 95 the "creation and graphics for new photo subjects" is foreseen for 12.000 EUR –
please provide a deeper breakdown of this cost and demonstrate that this price cannot be
lowered by using graphical resources from some other actions of a similar type in the
programme;
11. On p. 96-98 and 101-102 the frequency of the ads in each paper is presented – mainly it is
1 or 2 ads per year in a given magazine – is it a sufficient quantity of ads?, regardless of
the thorough explanations on p. 102, please demonstrate that such a strategy provides a
better result (impact) than focusing on fewer titles with a bigger frequency of the ads;
moreover please comment if it could be true that the price negotiation variable mentioned
on p. 102 could be made more predictable and controllable by cooperating with fewer
magazines with a bigger frequency of the ads; it is necessary to revise thoroughly the
media plan and to provide improvements in the scope needed in order to optimize its
impact;
12. On p. 104 given the overall high value of the action "production of kit for events" it is
necessary to provide a much better description of this action and a much deeper break
down of the unit cost of 407,85 EUR; moreover the distribution of the quantities of the
252 kits for each action and target market where they'd be used should be indicated;
13. On p. 105, 107, 109, 111 and 117 the unit cost of the "information/tasting event" in the
points of sales has to be broken down more, the description of the action has to be more
precise (what personnel is hired – is there no coordinator/supervisor of the promoters?,
and what materials/objects are used – size, type, surface, assumed position in the
133
supermarket), moreover the timing and location of all these events (1.512 in total in all 4
markets in the duration of the whole programme) have to be clearly indicated already at
the stage of the proposal; explanations on p. 114 are too vague and cannot be accepted,
moreover they do not seem to take into account that there will three times more actions
than described (the description clearly refers to only one year of this activity, when
comparing with the budget tables); please also present clearly the use of the 252 kits in all
the 1.512 promotions – will they rotate between the promotions, how is their rotation
going to be ensured?, at what cost?
14. On p. 106, 108, 110, 112 the background of the "speaker" has to be provided;
15. On p. 123 and 125 the background of the "moderator" has to be provided;
16. On p. 115 – what is the assumed time duration of each insert in the in-house magazine and
of each workshop in the supermarkets?
17. A specific website is not planned for the programme; however please explain much more
in detail what information on the programme (messages, themes, visuals, in which
quantity/frequency and in which part) will be available on the websites of the proposing
organisations and how the target groups will be actively encouraged to visit the pages
containing information about the programme on the websites of the proposing
organisations (p. 79); which website(s) addresse(s) would be published on the information
materials of the programme? For a further improvement of the EU dimension of the
programme, you may consider using a simple website with the ".eu" extension which for
instance may lead to the foreseen websites of the proposing organisations, please consult
http://www.ambitionhasanaddress.eu/it;
18. In the following actions please confirm that any products for it coming from the
associated producers (if foreseen) will be delivered at factory prices: catering for 35
persons (p. 81, 83, 85, 88), production of kit (p. 104), showcooking (p. 123 and 125);
19. It would be recommended to give a clearer name to the action 3 ("Specific actions aimed
at target groups"), as from the description of the action it targets only two of all the target
groups of the programme (consumers, and staff in supermarkets);
20. It would be recommended to indicate full names of the actions in the budget on p. 158

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
Objective(s) :
1. To increase demand for EU sausages and other meat products in Russia by developing
preferences towards EU label and stimulating shift in purchasing behaviour.
2. To increase export of EU sausages and other meat products by facilitating cooperation
with local intermediaries with the aim to ensure product availability in the Russian
market.
Strategy :
The programme strategy: The export from the EU to Russia will be increased by improving
market penetration and developing durable final demand. It will be achieved by building
competitive advantage for the EU label based on quality and diversity and motivating to
change selection of sausages and other meat products towards the EU origin throughout the
entire supply chain - from local intermediaries (importers, wholesalers, distributors, retailers)
to final consumer.
The programme focuses on tackling 2 main obstacles: weak market penetration and the fact
137
that generally positive consumer associations with EU production does not transform into
relevant purchasing criteria. Participants in the entire supply chain - from professionals to
consumers - need:
1) to be aware of the diversity of selection and be educated on what features, guaranteed by
the EU label, mean, how they represent product quality;
2) to be motivated to make behavioural changes.
It will be achieved via extensive information and advertising campaign through mass channels
supported by in-store stimulations on the one hand, and through development of contacts with
local intermediaries explaining advantages of the EU sausages and other meat products on the
other hand.
Target group(s) :
1. Final consumers
2. Professionals, i.e., importers, wholesalers, distributors and retailers.
Themes :
1. Quality
2. Diversity
Aspects covered:
quality
safety of food
labelling
animal welfare standards
image of Community products
Messages to be conveyed:
1. The EU law lays down stringent requirements guaranteeing the standards of all
European products.
2. The EU has a great diversity of meat products, with a distinct flavour and rich history,
able to satisfy various tastes.
Actions, including their scope/volume and a provisional timetable:
Taking into account different needs and situation of final consumers and professional local
intermediaries the programme consists of 2 sets of coherent actions different for each of the
target groups. The professional audience is smaller in number but requires more personal
communication and more profound knowledge about the programme messages. Therefore
they will be approached via actions in press, trade fairs, info-seminars, business meetings and
advertising material. Final consumer base is much larger and therefore most of the means are
directed at mass audience - TV, press, transit. Seeking to stimulate the behavioural changes
in-store actions and advertising material are also included.
138
Breakdown of the budget and actions according to the target groups:
The intensity of the actions in the 1st year is slightly slower and increases in the 2nd and 3rd
years. 24% of the budget expenses are planned for the 1st year, which will focus on
professionals more as it is important to firstly improve availability of the products. 39% of the
expenditures for actions are planned for the 2nd year, when the focus is planned to shift more
towards consumers. 37% of the expenditures are planned for the 3rd year continuing the
actions for professionals and consumers.
All programme actions are divided into 3 groups: actions for professionals (28% of the
budget), actions for consumers (63% of the budget) and advertising material (9% of the
budget).

TOTAL ACTIONS

1. ACTIONS FOR PROFESSIONALS. The summer and winter periods are planned to be less
intensive due to slowdown in business activities (due to holiday season, winter festivals). The
actions are coordinated to amplify the impact: for example, fairs are coordinated with infoseminars; additional info-seminars are coordinated with business meetings. Business meetings are
planned regularly to ensure development and maintenance of the contacts. Information and
140
advertising in press will supplement other actions by setting up a favourable context - creating
initial awareness and interests.
2. ACTIONS FOR CONSUMERS. The timing of the actions is coordinated, highest intensity is
planned in autumn and spring months. The only exception is distribution of calendars carrying the
programme messages to consumers in December by placing them in the meat section at stores.
The messages will be most widely spread using TV, press and transit advertising channels.
Behavioural shift will be stimulated with tastings and product consultations and advertising in the
stores.
3. ADVERTISING MATERIAL. The purpose of advertising material is to consolidate information
conveyed to the target audiences via other channels, to perform reminder function and also to
increase attractiveness of presented information.

precise indication of the key decision takers amongst the professionals; who will be the prior
targeted professional during the three year programme: the importer or the wholesaler?
Page 46 of proposal: Provide more details in relation to the cost build up (unit price) of the
placement cost of the articles and advertisements.

such products, and it has even decreased in recent years. By promoting the high quality level,
security, diversity, benefits and attractivity of the EU production, the programme pretends to
inform households, children and adolescents, mass caterers and increase their awareness of
the potential benefits for public health of en increased consumption if fresh fruits and
vegetables. Il will thus improve the value added of such a production, employment and
income in the rural world, in line with the CAP orientations. Press campaign (TV, radio,

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
Objectifs :
- modifier les habitudes alimentaires des consommateurs (spécialement enfants et
adolescents) en les encourageant à consommer des fruits et légumes produits dans l'UE
- encourager une consommation régulière et fréquente de fruits et légumes frais produits dans
l'UE en informant sur la qualité, la diversité, la sécurité et les bienfaits de la production de
l'UE
- moderniser l'image des fruits et légumes transformés et les rendre plus attractifs pour les
consommateurs européens.
Stratégie :
- élargir le marché et permettre un futur développement de la demande de fruits et légumes
frais cultivés dans l'UE
147
- augmenter la conscience du consommateur sur les bienfaits et l'impact positif des fruits et
légumes pour la santé
- encourager les consommateurs à inclure les fruits et légumes dans leur alimentation
quotidienne
- présenter les normes de qualité exclusives et les exigences de l'Union pour la culture et la
fourniture de fruits et légumes frais
Le programme cible d'une part l'insuffisante connaissance du consommateur pour les fruits et
légumes frais et son attitude vis-à-vis de ces produits, qu'il ignore largement dans ses choix
alimentaires. L'objectif est donc de stimuler effectivement la consommation en développant la
prise de conscience de la nécessité d'équilibrer la diète alimentaire quotidienne dans un sens
plus favorable à ces produits. Les promoteurs du programme ont b ainsi retenu les ménages
d'une part, les enfants en établissements scolaires d'autre part comme les groupes cibles
principaux susceptibles d'être les plus réceptifs aux valeurs de la campagne d'information
envisagée.
Le programme cherche à atteindre ces deux groupes en recourant aux moyens d'information
les plus influents: TV, Internet, radio et presse, pour attirer l'intérêt sur les fruits et légumes
frais et informer sur leur influence bénéfique. Les actions sur les points de vente et les foires
spécialisées viennent en complément des présentations ludiques, des spectacles animés et la
dégustation de produits aideront à renforcer l'image positive de produits naturels et frais, et à
créer ainsi de nouvelles habitudes de consommation à long terme chez les enfants et les
adultes. L'action vers les traiteurs de masse (restaurateurs, y compris les cantines scolaires et
restaurants plus spécialement tournés vers les enfants), par des présentations spéciales
utilisant différentes sources d'information et du matériel professionnel, renforcera cette
sensibilisation.
Une structure de coordination sera créée, associant les divers partenaires et veillant à la
cohérence du programme et de ses diverses actions, séparément et entre elles. Le programme
étant directement relié à des considérations de santé publique, l'approbation par le ministère
de la santé a d'ores et déjà été reçue et toutes les allégations en la matière seront validées par
les autorités nationales compétentes.
Cibles :
- Ménages
- Traiteurs de collectivité
- Enfants et adolescents
Thèmes :
Les thèmes traités dans ce programme sont basés sur le Règlement 501/2008 Annexe 1 pour
les fruits et légumes frais. Ils sont les suivants :
- Les fruits et légumes dans la nutrition quotidienne sont bénéfiques pour la santé,
spécialement pour les enfants et les adolescents: la pluralité recommandée de
consommation (5 par jour), la fraicheur et le caractère naturel garantis, la facilité et la
simplicité de consommation satisfont le consommateur et son confort.
- -les fruits et légumes cultivés dans l'UE répondent aux exigences strictes de qualité des
produits, tant dans le processus de production que dans les normes élevées appliquées pour
garantir la qualité du produit, sa valeur nutritionnelle et son goût.

Messages à communiquer :
- Une consommation régulière de fruits et légumes est bénéfique pour les consommateurs,
spécialement les enfants et les adolescents
- Les fruits et légumes produits dans l'UE répondent à une règlementation stricte garantissant
leur qualité
Actions, y inclus leur portée/volume et calendrier prévisionnel :
A partir de l'expérience du marché et étant donné le spectre d'information à diffuser, la
manière la plus efficace de communiquer les thèmes du programme et de construire une prise
de conscience réside dans le contact direct et indirect avec le public complété par du matériel
d'information pour consolider le niveau de connaissance ainsi atteint. Deux manières de
s'adresser au consommateur sont planifiées:-une communication directe par divers
événements comme les foires spécialisées, avec le but d'atteindre et d'influencer les ménages,
l'un des groupes cibles les plus importants, responsable des choix et des achats de produits
- des présentations thématiques pour toucher un groupe de professionnels, les traiteurs en
restauration collective
- des dégustations et attractions pour un plus vaste public sur les points de vente, y compris à
destination des enfants et adolescents
Cette communication directe est soutenue par la distribution de matériel d'information coloré
et attractif. Cette stratégie permet une plus grande efficacité dans la reconnaissance des fruits
et légumes européens et de leur exceptionnelle qualité.
Les actions indirectes, différenciées en fonction des divers groupes cibles de consommateurs,
portent sur la diffusion, par les canaux électroniques et les médias, d'une information qui peut
être répétée, mise à jour et transmise sans délai. Une campagne d'information sur les médias
et canaux électroniques est accessible plus longtemps, ses allégations semblent plus fiables et
plus autorisées, et les destinataires acquièrent ainsi une perception plus profonde et plus
interactive. Tous les moyens de communication ont été sélectionnés pour leur facilité à
atteindre l'audience cible, à accroitre son intérêt et à la persuader d'effectuer un choix motivé
et à long terme, susceptible de se prolonger au-delà de l'accomplissement du programme luimême.
Evénements spécialisés
Il s'agira d'activités diverses orientées vers différents groupes-cibles: participation à 39 foires
commerciales et expositions spécialisées. Il s'agit de différents événements tournés vers des
publics cibles différents: 39 foires de l'agriculteur, sur des places publiques. Ce type
d'évènement s'est développé depuis quelques années et connaît un succès croissant, lié à la
149
recherche de produits authentiques et dans lesquels on peut avoir totale confiance. 30 de ces
foires durent une journée, sauf les marché de Noël et marché de Noël et du nouvel an qui
durent 3 et 2 jours. La plupart ont lieu à Vilnius. Les foires saisonnières (Foire des moissons,
Geguzine Fair, foire de l'été sain, en lien avec des évènements thématiques (World food day
et événements reliés à des congés annuels de Noêl, Nouvel an, sont utiles pour promouvoir les
produits frais et naturels cultivés en Lituanie et dans les autres pays membres de l'UE.
Il est également prévu de participer à la fameuse Foire de Vilnius et de la Lituanie en y
invitant des participants de tout le pays et de l'étranger. La tradition de la St Casimir par
exemple remonte à quelques siècles et elle est devenue un événement significatif qui dure 3
jours et attire plus de 2 000 participants de la Lituanie et des pays voisins et parfois un demimillion de visiteurs, dont des Polonais, Lettons et Biélorusses, susceptibles d'élargir l'audience
du programme.
Sont également prévues des foires et expositions internationales pour l'agriculture et
l'alimentation (AgroBalt et Kg paséis) qui sont des événements importants pour l'agriculture
et ont lieu dans les deux plus importantes villes, Vilnius et Kaunas, avec une popularité
grandissante. Des dégustations de produits, une information sur les manières de préparer les
plats, la mise en valeur des bienfaits nutritionnels d'une alimentation meilleure apportent une
occasion exclusive de promotion directe plus efficace pour susciter l'intérêt du consommateur
et forger de nouvelles attitudes envers les produits frais en naturels, la claire traçabilité des
produits de l'UE, leur diversité, leur bénéfice pour le consommateur. Deux stands seront
utilisés pour les diverses productions et une information parallèle aux dégustations On prévoit
5 à 10 000 visiteurs/jour pendant les marchés ouverts d'une journée et 20 000 dans les foires
de villes et expositions internationales. Le total des 37 participations devrait permettre de
toucher 350 000 à 400 000 personnes, essentiellement du groupe-cible ménages.
Les conférences spécialisées pour traiteurs en restauration collective, au nombre de 12,
seront tenues chaque trimestre pour promouvoir les idées modernes et la vogue d'un mode de
vie sain et d'une nutrition saine. Ce créneau est considéré utile pour disséminer le message du
programme à des experts en nutrition, des traiteurs pour collectivités (restaurants, cafés,
cantines scolaires et préscolaires etc.), afin d'accroître leur intérêt et de les encourager à
inclure plus de fruits et de légumes dans leur activité quotidienne, en privilégiant les
ingrédients végétaux aux produits animaux. Il est prévu d'inviter 2 orateurs de différents
milieux: un nutritionniste ou médecin et un expert de l'alimentation. Les participants (environ
100 par séance de 4 heures) devraient s'élever au total à 1200 personnes.
La participation aux foires (37 216€) et les conférences spécialisées (23 040€) représentent
40% des dépenses de communication directe, et environ 2% du budget total.
Information sur les points de vente
Ces actions ont lieu dans des magasins, sur des places du marché et dans des supermarchés; il
est prévu une dégustation de produits et une présentation de la qualité par des mesures
directes de communication attractives pour les consommateurs. Des actions de 3 heures sont
programmées dans les plus grandes foires comme Gariunai Farmers's Market à Vilnius (8-10
000 visiteurs par jour et dans des marchés agricoles plus modestes (Kaunas, Ukininku
trugelia) avec environ 3 000 clients/jour. Cette mesure a été retenue car elle permet une
introduction directe du produit sur le marché et elle attire l'attention des consommateurs tout
en maintenant le contact avec les consommateurs existants. Elle permet un feedback de leurs
opinions immédiates, de leurs idées et affirmations. Ce type de marchés a une vogue
croissante auprès des consommateurs, qui identifient l les agriculteurs comme des
fournisseurs sûrs et fiables, capables de présenter une qualité élevée pour un prix raisonnable.
A noter qu'en Lituanie la tendance reste à a acheter majoritairement les légumes auprès du
producteur ou des marchés d'agriculteurs. En outre, ces actions de dégustation seront
organisées à destination des enfants et adolescents, avec présentation des principales qualités
des fruits et légumes par des acteurs professionnels et une animation adaptée à ce public.

des villes comme Vilnius et Kaunas. Dans ce cas, les présentations sont programmées le
samedi et le dimanche de 11h à 12h. 24 actions par an (18 à Vilnius). Chaque année, 6
dégustations sont en outre prévues dans d'autres grandes villes. Enfin, des dégustations de
produits cibles sont prévues pour les adultes, de manière créative, comme dans une cour de

confortables et attrayantes, en jouant sur l'image d'une cour de ferme; elles ont lieu dans des
magasins, places du marché et supermarchés, en fonction de l'affluence et de la réputation
des lieux choisis. La durée dépend de l'affluence. On escompte 36 000 contacts (env. 500
par action)-, pour 72 dégustations en tout, dont 18 par an à Vilnius et 6 par an à Kaunas.
Ces actions ne seront pas toutes programmées à la même heure, pour ne pas toucher la
même clientèle. Coût de la mesure: 80 624 € (env.2,6% du budget total)
- animations en points de vente
Une action animée est programmée, pour renforcer les images positives de fraicheur et de
naturel, en incitant de jeunes enfants à créer des personnages amicaux et sympathiques.
Public escompté: 130 consommateurs potentiels par action de 2 heures. Le scénario sera
adapté selon les évènements; sur base d'un canevas type, avec 1 acteur animateur. Des
dégustations sont prévues pour les enfants. Coût de la mesure: 59 400€, (env. 2,1% du
budget total)
Radio, télévision, presse
Il s'agit de moyens indirects mais relativement efficaces pour toucher tous les groupes cibles
du programme. Les actions audiovisuelles portent sur des reportages télé et radio tandis que
de l'information est diffusée à la presse. Coût total: 1 624 514€ (env. 59% du budget total)
- Radio : tout au long du déroulement du programme, en association avec des jeux pour les
jeunes consommateurs (sur une base mensuelle), avec un accent un peu plus marqué en
année 2 et 3. Elle permet d'atteindre indirectement un plus large public; de plus en plus de
personnes écoutent en effet dans leur voiture ou sur leur lieu de travail. Il est prévu de
recourir à l'une des stations les plus populaires, avec une audience jeune, réceptive et à
l'esprit ouvert. Des interviews en live de5 mn sont prévues, pour diffusion en semaine (6 à 9
jours par mois), avec des annonces préalables et des extraits à titre d'amorce d'audience.
300 diffusions sont prévues (100 par an). D'autre part des flashs commerciaux courts et
intensifs sont prévus, avec des messages clairs sur la variété, la qualité et les bienfaits de la
consommation des produits du programme. Ces messages changent selon les saisons, les
évènements prévus et les réactions anticipées des consommateurs potentiels. Des jeux
radiophoniques pour les jeunes auditeurs sont prévus dans les programmes pour enfants,
avec des quiz et des puzzles radio en lien avec la thématique du programme (réponse pas
mail ou appel téléphonique Ces jeux auront lieu 6 à 9 fois par mois, l'après-midi, moment

par radio concerne les fruits frais et les légumes de l'UE, avec l'accent sur leur variété et
leur qualité, ainsi que les normes de production, de distribution et d'étiquetage.
Coût total: 338 340 €
- Télévision : elle a été retenue de par ses avantages indéniables en termes d'efficacité et de
capacité à fournir le meilleur accès aux consommateurs de masse (99,3% de la population
possède un récepteur) et l'écho obtenu est plus intensif et plus profond que par d'autres
151
canaux. Il est prévu des émissions et des spots et insertions publicitaires sur des shows
populaires des chaines nationales, à destination des adultes, notamment des femmes
moyennement cultivées, de 20-45 ans avec un revenu moyen ou supérieur, leur préférence
alimentaire étant décisive pour la famille. Les enfants et adolescents sont retenus par
ailleurs pour leur sensibilité aux annonces vidéo et leur tendance à faire confiance à ce qui
leur est présenté: ils voient 15 annonces alimentaires par jour à la télévision, à 98% pour
des produits riches en matière grasse, sucre, sodium. Les publicités qui leur sont destinées
présenteront des manières malsaines de manger, avec leurs résultats négatifs: des messages
adaptés aideront à développer leur consommation de fruits et légumes frais.
Les programmes d'information (45 mn) seront diffusés sur l'une des chaines principales, le
week-end; ils présenteront des produits d'une exceptionnelle qualité, ainsi que les méthodes
et exigences du stockage, de la distribution et de la vente. Principaux objectifs; informer le
groupe cible sur les bienfaits des produits, encourager une plus grande fréquence de
consommation, accroitre la conscience pour les produits de l'UE. Sont prévues des
interviews de nutritionnistes, de vedettes, d'athlètes et de partisans du régime végétarien; le
but est d'approfondir la compréhension pour une nourriture saine et des produits naturels de
l'UE. A destination des plus jeunes, les messages seront présentés d'une manière ludique,
avec le concours de chefs connus ou comme simples leçons pour éviter les déceptions dans
la préparation des repas. 30 programmes prévus, sur 3 ans.
Des insertions publicitaires pour adultes sont également prévues au cours d'une émission
populaire et diffusée aux heures de grande écoute (par ex 19h en semaine) sous forme de
publicité "cryptée", plus efficace et moins agressive, plus facilement acceptée. Sur une
saison de 5 mois, 39-40 épisodes cryptés sont prévus. Enfin, les spots sur les canaux
nationaux (30 s. 2004 diffusions) jouent plus efficacement sur la conscience du
consommateur et sur ses attitudes car ils sont compris plus facilement et plus rapidement. Il
est prévu de retenir l'un des canaux les plus populaires; le message reprendra les principaux
thèmes de la campagne.
Au total, la TV devrait être l'un des outils les plus influents pour atteindre les objectifs du
programme, induire des changements dans les habitudes de nutrition, spécialement des
enfants et adolescents, et encourager les consommateurs à choisir les fruits et légumes de
l'UE en informant sur la qualité, la sécurité et les bienfaits de ceux-ci.
Enfin, des flash TV sont prévus sur les points de vente (audience attendue: 230 000 pers.
pour une diffusion de 200 fois par jour, 7 jours/mois, avec des messages courts, clairs et
attrayants. L'efficacité de ce type d'annonces est jugé supérieure car l'intervalle avec l'acte
d'achat est quasi inexistant.
Ces diverses formes de diffusion TV devraient au total atteindre 1,5 million de personnes.
Coût total 1 248 120 €
Presse
Articles, communiqués et annonces aident à atteindre indirectement la plus large audience, et
à un prix relativement plus bas. Des annonces sur les principaux thèmes et messages du
programme sont prévues dans les journaux nationaux, en fonction de leur diffusion et de leur
coût. Des articles spécialisés et communiqués sont prévus dans ces mêmes journaux
nationaux et régionaux. Cette campagne est complémentaire des autres car elle touche une
large audience, renforce l'acceptation des principes de la campagne d'information, les textes
dans la presse comportant une image de sérieux; en outre l'effet induit potentiel es important
par le bouche-à-bouche. Il est en outre prévu de diffuser des communiqués de presse aux
agences lituaniennes pour informer les grossistes en restauration collective des actions
menées à leur intention.
Au total, pour les différentes formes de cette campagne médias, est prévue une campagne
de 300 émissions radio thématiques, de 300 jeux thématiques et de 30 programmes TV
152
conjointement avec 2 240 radios commerciales, 120 insertions promotionnelles dans des
shows TV, 2004 spots TV (30s), soit au total 50 400 spots TV au total tant sur els points de
vente que dans les divers types de médias. Ces mesures sont d'une intensité différente, d'une
portée et d'un impact variables envers el consommateurs. Ensemble, elles constituent une
panoplie structurée; elles représentent ensemble 78% du coût du programme, ce choix se
justifiant de par leur capacité à toucher ensemble des groupes cibles. Radio et presse écrite
devraient toucher env. 1 million de personnes et la télévision 1,5 million.
Coût total presse: 74 304 €
Médias électroniques
Choisi pour son potentiel d'accès, le web comprend une large gamme d'informations archivées
et organisées de manière à garantir une utilisation simple et pratique et une diffusion sans
délai. Sont compris un site web (formulation de la conception, design et mesures techniques,
création de matériel visuel, renouvellement et maintenance) Les dépenses sont calculées sur
base de devis demandés aux fournisseurs. Des articles online (coût individuel: 575 €) sont
également prévus (création et placement sur des sites populaires, les dépenses sont calculées
sur base de devis des fournisseurs de service) et des bannières (création thématique,
placement sur des sites sociaux populaires; dépenses calculées sur base de devis des
fournisseurs) Il est prévu de créer et de placer 108 articles sur la période de l'action, de
diffuser les bannières 300 jours; cette fréquence est considérée optimale pour créer de la
publicité et promouvoir le programme et ses thèmes parmi tous les groupes cibles. Il est prévu
de toucher env. 100 000 personnes sur les 3 ans par le site web, et on espère une audience
similaire pour les réseaux sociaux (Facebook), avec des messages renouvelés chaque jour;
l'animation et la mesure d'audience du site sont confiées à des spécialistes reconnus. Toutes
ces actions bénéficieront d'expériences antérieures. Les articles devraient toucher env. 200
000 personnes sur les 3 ans. Enfin, les bannières, qui seront en place pendant 196 jours à
raison de 4 jours avant un événement et sur les principaux sites populaires du pays devraient
être répétées 80 000 fois et atteindre 500 000 contacts tout au long du programme.
Coût total: 275 576 €
Autres outils
Cet ensemble de mesures inclut le matériel de promotion visuelle qui sera distribué à
l'occasion de diverses actions directes et indirectes du programme. Des dépliants et des
brochures sont considérés comme un complément mais constituent un plus significatif pour
créer des contacts directs avec les consommateurs, capter favorablement leur attention sur le
thème promu et finalement pousser et promouvoir l'image des produits cibles et communiquer
le message du programme. Sont prévues des brochures (12, à raison de 4 par an) reprenant les
principales informations du programme, avec des images attractives des produits cibles et des
explications sur leur origine, les exigences auxquelles ils répondent et leur impact pour le
consommateur. Des indications précises sur les lieux et modes de distribution sont également
données, et des exemplaires adaptés et mis à jour sont prévus pour les grossistes de la
restauration collective. 150 ex. sont prévus par événement et 1800 ex. au total pour tout le
programme. Les dépliants sont prévus pour une présentation courte mais attrayante de la
thématique du programme, avec des indications sur les caractéristiques et exigences de la
production européenne, et sur les initiatives à venir. La distribution aura lieu durant les foires
agricoles et sur les points de vente lors des dégustations. 1000 ex sont prévus par jour et par
événement, soit 276 000 au total. Le total de ces mesures s'élève à 2,5 % du budget et vient en
soutien des mesures programmées.
Coût total: 58 881 € (2,1% du budget total);

Impact prévisible :
L'impact ultime espéré du programme est d'augmenter progressivement la demande; il prend
en compte les spécificités du marché local concerné et devrait donc élever le taux de
connaissance du consommateur sur les bienfaits des produits frais et naturels et induire une
meilleure identification et une plus grande acceptation des produits agricoles de l'UE en
Lituanie. L'éducation et l'information du consommateur, avec des mesures spécifiques pour
les enfants et adolescents, sont complémentaires pour accroître l'intérêt, l'acceptation et
conséquemment, la demande. Les changements attendus dans l'attitude des consommateurs se
résument comme suit:
- augmentation de 28 à 40% des adultes consommant plus d'une fois par jour des fruits frais
- nombre d'adultes consommant plus d'une fois par jour des légumes frais passant de 16 à
30%
- pourcentage d'élèves mangeant plus d'un fruit frais par jour passant de 23% à…%
- pourcentage d'élèves mangeant plus d'un légume frais par jour passant de 16% à 30%
- part des consommateurs connaissant la qualité du produit et les normes de sécurité de l'UE
en hausse de 21%, de 19% à 40%
- part des consommateurs qui reconnaissent les avantages des fruits et légumes frais de l'UE
et font leur choix en conséquence passant de 29% à 45%
Les études de connaissance du consommateur sont considérées comme la meilleure méthode
pour suivre l'évolution. L'impact du programme sera déterminé en fonction des changements
constatés dans la conscience du consommateur pendant la période de mise en œuvre des
mesures. La première étude a été menée avant la préparation du programme, de manière à
quantifier le point de départ; elle sera répétée chaque année selon la même méthodologie. Les
études de comportement du consommateur jugent pour leur part des résultats de leur attitude
d'achat et de consommation et révèlent l'impact des actions d'information: elles font ressortir
les changements d'attitude en mesurant et en comparant les données générées pour les
produits concernés, avant et après les mesures. Des évaluations auront lieu chaque année pour
mesurer systématiquement les résultats des actions. Dans un souci d'impartialité, elles seront
confiées à un ou des organisme(s) extérieur(s) indépendant(s) expert(s) en la matière. 3% du
budget sont prévus à cet effet (74 294 €) et les études programmées pour nov-déc 2014, 2015
et 2016.
Dimension européenne du programme :
Les retombées à long terme de ce programme au niveau européen seront une meilleure et plus
large application de la Politique Agricole Commune à l’horizon 2020, avec un concours direct
à la stratégie Europe 2020 et au programme national lituanien de 2012 Le programme répond
aux orientations de la PAC, qui privilégie le soutien à une agriculture garantissant la sécurité
alimentaire, un usage durable des ressources naturelles et la dynamisation des zones rurales,
ainsi que la croissance et l’emploi. Il contribue en outre aux priorités du livre vert sur la
promotion et l'information sur les produits agricoles: mieux expliquer aux consommateurs les
efforts des producteurs UE pour atteindre le plus haut niveau de qualité, offrir la gamme la
plus large de produits et de goûts en provenance des différentes régions, aider les producteurs
UE face à de nouveaux défis, notamment à une situation économique imprévisible.
Les mesures d'information sont destinées au marché local, où la consommation de fruits et
légumes frais diminue, et sont choisies pour délivrer des messages illustrant les
caractéristiques spécifiques des produits européens, leur qualité, les aspects gastronomiques,
les questions de santé, le développement durable et la sécurité. En accroissant le goût du
public pour les fruits et légumes frais de l'UE il contribue à l'accroissement de la valeur
ajoutée du secteur agricole européen, en augmentant la conscience du consommateur sur la
qualité, la diversité, la disponibilité de ces produits, il améliore l'image de marque de la
production de l'UE et stimule ainsi une consommation en déclin et dont il souligne la valeur
154
nutritionnelle et les effets en termes de diète alimentaire équilibrée, en particulier pour les
groupes cibles retenus (ménages, enfants et adolescents, grossistes en restauration collective,
leaders d'opinion sur les groupes considérés) Les mesures à destination des jeunes sont
notamment complémentaires de la formation de leurs habitudes alimentaires et répondent aux
orientations nationale et européenne en ce sens.
En outre, le programme aura des retombées concrètes en termes de développement rural en ce
sens qu'il développera la prise de conscience de l'importance des produits de l'UE, de par leur
qualité, confortant ainsi ni leur compétitivité au-delà du simple choix de prix. Il développera
également la prise de conscience chez le consommateur de l'importance de l'environnement et
du paysage, grâce à des méthodes de production qualitatives et respectueuses de
l'environnement et des exigences du développement durable. Il aidera enfin à améliorer la
qualité de la vie dans les zones rurales et à diversifier leur économie en incitant les
producteurs à s'orienter toujours plus vers les marchés et les produits à plus forte valeur
ajoutée, consolidant ainsi leur situation économique et sociale.

Anticipated impact:
After the implementation of all information and promotion actions it is expected that the
objectives of the Programme will have been met:
1. Improvement of the image of PDO/PGI products as high quality products +50%.
2. Enhancement of the demand for PDO/PGI products +20%.
Method of impact assessment:
An evaluation study will be conducted at the end of every year of the Programme.
The measurement of results includes (a) quantitative assessment of the actions (collection of
quantitative data and correlation to the anticipated results), (b) qualitative evaluation (based
on the questionnaire which will project the satisfaction of participants in the actions) and (c)
measurement of the impact of each action, to each target group, in each country, in each year.
The questionnaires will be addressed to all target groups and will be filled in during the
exhibitions and the promotion actions. They will be used as a means to collect data regarding
the habits and preferences of the consumers, the level of knowledge of all target groups about
the European quality framework, their opinion about the PDO/PGI products.

Programme eligible:
Yes
First observations to be communicated to MS:
1. Provide further information, with reference to the current exports of promoted products to
target markets and current awareness of target groups for the products and themes of the
programme, for the quantitative assessment of the impact of the programme.
2. It is suggested that the "… .eu" is used as extension for the creation of the internet site.
3. In action 2, on the participation in trade fairs, additional information and clarifications
should be provided on tasting and the role/need of persons employed during the trade fair
for support and translation.
4. The action on the points of sales is considered an expensive action in relation to the cost
per contact. Therefore it is considered that higher yield actions (cost per contact) such as
advertising could have a higher budget expenditure to the expense of the points of sales
action. Provide additional information and clarifications on this observation.
5. Concerning the action 6, invitations to opinion leaders, it is suggested that the costs are
adapted to those foreseen in annex III.B.2.2 of the model contract. The visits refer to the
internal market rules since they will be undertaken in Greece and Romania. Therefore the
amounts could better match the aforementioned rules of the model contract to be eligible.
Provide additional information to cover this observation, if necessary new budget tables
should be provided.
6. Provide the budget tables that present expenditure by year and by target market i.e. Saudi
Arabia, UAE and USA.
165
7. The declarations of the annex of the application form should be provided by the third
participant organization of the programme (producer of dairy PDO and PGI cheese
products)
8. For the competent authorities of Greece and Romania: In accordance with Article 9(4) of
Commission (EC) No 501/2008 Member States have to agree on administrative
collaboration procedures for the monitoring implementation and checking of the
programme. Provide additional information to cover this observation.
9. Concerning the evaluation of the competent authority of Greece for this programme, the
evaluation form used that refers to the programmes targeting the internal market is used.
However the correct form should be used that refers to the evaluation of the programmes
targeting third countries and which is slightly different. Provide the evaluation of the
programme in the correct form.
10. Article 6(1) of the Council Regulation (EU) No 3/2008 lays down that only trade or intertrade organizations representative of their sectors are eligible for financial support.
Additional information and clarifications should be provided to confirm the evaluations of
the competent authorities of Greece and Romania in particular regarding the eligibility of
the company Kourellas SA as beneficiary.
11. Provide clarifications whether the proposing organizations are considered public bodies in
accordance with Article 1(9) of Directive 2004/18/EC.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAMME :
Objective(s):

Obtenir une meilleure connaissance des signes IGP/AOP des fruits et légumes, en
fournissant une information exhaustive sur le contenu, sur le fonctionnement et sur le
169
caractère communautaire de ces signes, à travers d’exemples concrets en France, en Italie et
en Allemagne;

Entraîner un développement des ventes des fruits et légumes sous signes IGP/AOP,
impliqués dans la campagne.
- gain de notoriété de 3 à 5 % à la fin des 3 ans du programme
- augmentation moyenne de 30% des ventes des produits sous IGP/AOP partenaires du
programme, à la fin du programme (soit une augmentation moyenne de 10% par an).
Strategy:
Le programme s’appuiera sur les axes stratégiques suivants:
- Valoriser les qualités des fruits et légumes sous signes IGP/AOP pour satisfaire les
- attentes actuelles des consommateurs, de plus en plus exigeant eu égard à la qualité et
à la sécurité alimentaire: de vrais goûts (produits de saison, cahiers des charges, contrôles
permanents, lien avec le terroir) et de vraies histoires (patrimoine de culture alimentaire
européenne, lien entre les produits/les terroirs/les hommes et les cultures de chaque
produit/région).
- Profiter de la saisonnalité de la gamme des produits pour avoir une prise de parole
annuelle de cette campagne.
- Créer une campagne unique, avec une stratégie de communication européenne, qui
soit adaptée à la réalité de chaque pays cible.
- Pour cela, il est prévu la création d’un positionnement unique, d’un cadre créatif unique,
d’une signature unique avec une accroche unique, d’une approche européenne de la
campagne avec des déclinaisons créatives et un plan d’action cohérents entre les pays et
qui collent à la réalité des marchés.

cadre créatif unique : une "charte graphique" dont les codes fondamentaux, qui
mettent en valeur les signes de qualité européens, seront appliqués par l'ensemble
des partenaires pour toutes les déclinaisons produits dans les 3 pays.

signature unique : « L’Europe signe les produits de ses Terroirs », avec une
déclinaison par produit
Target group(s):
- consommateurs
- leaders d’opinion (journalistes)
- distributeurs du secteur (acheteurs, grossistes, détaillants)
La principale action du programme (communication auprès des consommateurs) est réalisée
dans les magasins de grande distribution, car c’est le lieu où sont commercialisés environ
70% des volumes des fruits et légumes sous IGP/AOP partenaires du programme. Il est donc
nécessaire de communiquer là où le consommateur peut trouver le produit, c’est-à dire là où il
est commercialisé.
Themes:
Les « bénéfices » des produits sous signes IGP/AOP
 Les bénéfices rationnels:
 les caractéristiques spécifiques de chaque produit : variété, goût
 les garanties des cahiers des charges européens AOP/IGP et des contrôles
 la fraîcheur de la saisonnalité
170

 la naturalité des produits
Les bénéfices émotionnels:
 l'importance des liaisons avec chaque terroir
 le savoir-faire des hommes, une tradition très actuelle
 la possibilité de se valoriser par rapport à ses amis et à ses proches
 l’appartenance à un groupe qui crée la tendance.
Aspects covered:
quality
safety of food
specific production methods
nutritional values
health impacts
EU labelling system
respect for the environment
Messages to be conveyed:
« L’Europe signe les produits de ses terroirs »
L’objectif de ce programme est d’afficher clairement l’engagement européen et ne plus se
contenter d’une caution en signature. Aujourd’hui toutes les communications produit sont
cautionnées d’un label en signature (Bio, AOC, Max Havelaar, Label rouge…). Cette
profusion nuit à la lecture des nouveaux signes de qualité européens AOP/IGP.
Or les logos communautaires AOP et IGP sont des symboles compris dans l’ensemble de la
Communauté Européenne comme désignant des produits répondant à des conditions de
production spécifiques liées à leur origine géographique et étant soumis à des contrôles.
Le discours est basé sur 3 niveaux : l’Europe, la culture du produit et le produit luimême.
Rappel du cahier des charges IGP/AOP. Valorisation d’un terroir et du produit issu de ce
terroir, les avantages pour le consommateur (sécurité, valeur nutritionnelle, naturalité, saveur,
traçabilité).

- Recettes et curiosités
• Informations sur la campagne locale
•
En année 2 et 3, une partie des ressources liées au développement et à la gestion du site
internet sera utilisée pour renforcer le plan média consommateur. Les passages seront
multipliés et par conséquent, les performances augmenteront proportionnellement.

Landes IGP, Pruneau d’Agen IGP et Kaki Ribera del Xuquer AOP.
Budget Total Action 3 pour les 3 Années : 326 146 euros
175
Expected results per action + proposed method:
L’impact du programme devrait conduire à un gain de notoriété des IGP/AOP d’environ 3
à 5 % au bout de 3 ans, auprès des consommateurs acheteurs de fruits et légumes.
Méthodologie proposée par l’IFOP :
 L’IFOP réalisera une enquête auprès des consommateurs acheteurs de fruits et légumes
afin de mesurer la notoriété et l’image des signes AOP/IGP.
Cette enquête sera réalisée à 4 reprises dans les 3 pays cibles (France, Italie,
Allemagne):
- à T0 (avant le démarrage du programme),
- à T1 (à la fin de la 1ère année),
- à T2 (à la fin de la 2ème année),
- à T3 (à la fin de la 3ème année).
 L’interview sera fait en face à face, en sortie de caisse des magasins, auprès d’acheteurs
de fruits et légumes (car il s’agit des personnes potentiellement touchées), âgés de 18 à 65
ans.
 Les dispositifs de communication/promotion étant différents dans chacun des 3 pays cibles
(budget plus important sur la France), l’enquête sera dimensionnée différemment dans les 3
pays :
- 300 interviews auront lieu en France lors de chaque enquête,
- 200 interviews auront lieu en Italie lors de chaque enquête,
- 200 interviews auront lieu en Allemagne lors de chaque enquête, soit un total de 700
interviews d’acheteurs de fruits et légumes.
 o Cette enquête, à partir de ces questionnaires, permettra, au niveau des personnes
interrogées, de :
 o mesurer l’évolution de la notoriété des signes de qualité IGP/AOP,
 o déterminer le niveau de souvenir de l’opération ainsi que le niveau de reconnaissance,
 o mesurer l’évolution du niveau d’incitation à la consommation de ce type de fruits et
légumes,
 o mesurer le pourcentage d’augmentation de la consommation de ce type de fruits et
légumes.
Mesure de l’augmentation des ventes
L’impact du programme en termes d’objectif d’augmentation des volumes de fruits et
légumes commercialisés sous AOP/IGP devrait être une augmentation d’environ 30% en
moyenne pour l’ensemble des 8 produits, soit une progression moyenne d’environ 10% par
an.
176
Ce taux d’augmentation pourra être différent selon les produits :
La mesure de l’augmentation des ventes se fera à partir des déclarations officielles annuelles
des organisations proposantes auprès des pouvoirs publics (déclaration annuelle des volumes
vendus sous IGP/AOP auprès de l’INAO pour la France et auprès des organismes compétents
pour l’Italie et l’Espagne)

RESULT OF THE ELIGIBILITY AND QUALITY EXAMINATION
Remarks:
Le Programme est pour la France une certaine continuation du programme Multi FR+ES
2010-MI- FR+ES Fruits et légumes AOP-IGP- 498 qui termine en septembre 2013 et qui a
mis en avant 7 fruits et légumes. Les produits français restent les mêmes (Asperges des
Landes, Fraise Périgord, Kiwis de l’Adour) le muscat du Ventoux ne reprend pas et est
remplacé par le Pruneau d’Agen. Pour l’Espagne, c’est un nouveau produit qui est promu
(Kaki de la Ribera del Xuquer (région de Valence)), et un nouvel Etat Membre est associé,
l’Italie avec ces produits sous label qualité européen : Poires, pêches/nectarines, chou
rouge.
L’évaluation par l’IFOP du programme précédent est fournie et montre, dès la fin de la
deuxième année, une augmentation globale de la notoriété des signes de qualité AOP/IGP
notamment en France. En Espagne, la crise économique a des répercussions sur les produits
AOP/IGP qui sont perçus comme des produits chers.
Programme déséquilibré du point de vue budgétaire étant donné que l’action 2
(communication auprès des consommateurs en grande et moyenne distribution) représente
83% du budget mais c’est le lieu où sont commercialisés environ 70% des volumes des fruits
et légumes sous AOP/IGP partenaires du programme. Il est donc nécessaire de communiquer
là où le consommateur peut trouver le produit, c'est-à-dire là où il est commercialisé.
Bonne dimension européenne puisqu’il s’agit d’un programme multi-pays, multi-produits
avec des produits qui communiquent en dehors de leur pays d’origine.
Les autorités nationales ont confirmé qu’APFELSO est une Association Loi de 1901; il s'agit
d'un organisme de droit privé, financé par les cotisations de ses adhérents. Il n'est donc pas
concerné par les procédures de passation des marchés publics. D’autre part, l'offre a été
179
publiée en France et en Italie, car il s'agit des 2 pays dans lesquels seront conduites les
principales actions de promotion. Il y a certes un partenaire espagnol (Kaki), mais il n'y a pas
d'actions réalisées en Espagne (le Kaki espagnol fera la promotion en France). Il était
préférable de consulter des agences qui connaissent bien la France et l'Italie.
Programme éligible:
Yes/No
First observations to be communicated to MS:
De manière générale, il est regrettable que s’agissant d’un programme Multi-pays, la
campagne ne mette pas en valeur, dans chacun des trois pays ciblés, l’ensemble des 8
produits. Expliquer les raisons qui ont empêché d’envisager cette option et, si possible,
améliorer le caractère multi-pays.
Serait-il possible de mieux décrire les synergies avec le programme précédent (réutilisation du
matériel, d'articles, de slogans publicitaires, spots radio existants et déjà connus des
consommateurs) afin d'en capitaliser les effets, les leçons retenues, les écueils à éviter.
Dans les sociétés ayant participé à l’appel d’offre, il est question de Sopexa (Italie). Est-ce
Sopexa (Italie) et non Sopexa (France) qui va exécuter le programme ?
Actions:
1. (p.29) Expliquer ce que l’on entend par « portage ». D’après la description, le portage
est adressé à 60 journalistes. Le coût est de 4.000 euros/portage. Quelle est la
différence avec le « dossier de presse » qui lui est adressé à 400 journalistes ? Justifier
le coût du portage par rapport à celui adressé à 15 bloggeurs en Italie et estimé à 50
euros.
2. (p.29) pourquoi n'y a-t-il pas de d'information ou de relais vers le site internet en
France (comme en Italie et en Allemagne)?
3. (p 31) le budget alloué à l'action 1 en France semble très important (60580€ pour
l'année 1), alors qu'elle est très générale et moins concrète qu'en Italie ou en
Allemagne. L'action en France se limite à des dossiers de presse et actions de portage,
alors qu'en Italie et en Allemagne des actions plus ciblées sont proposées
(foodbloggeurs, coopération avec Brandnooz.de). Quel est l'impact précis attendu des
actions en France? "Déclencher des articles"? Dans quel type de presse? L'action en
France pourrait-elle est mieux ciblée?
4. (p. 32) Justifier pourquoi l’action 1 Relations Publiques/Relations presse) en
Allemagne coûte (51.407,44 euros) presque autant que la même action en France
(60.580,00) alors qu’en Allemagne elle ne concerne qu’un produit (le pruneau
d’Agen) et en France elle concerne 5 produits.
5. (p.32) En quoi consistent les « frais de coopération » pour l’action Brandnooz qui
s’élèvent à 14.000 euros ?
6. (p.35 et 36) Action dans les points de vente de la Grande Distribution en France et en
Italie. Les enseignes sont indiquées mais pas les régions ou villes où l’action va se
réaliser. Les préciser. Paradoxalement, dans le budget de cette action pour l’Italie (p.
45) il est question de frais de voyage « km 780 et km 456 », à quoi correspondent ces
distances ?
7. (p.40) Action 2 en France Plan média radio. Expliquer pourquoi la cible du plan media
radio- responsables des achats de moins de 50 ans-est plus réduite que la cible du
programme global, les consommateurs en général.
8. Pour les spots radio pourquoi avoir choisi seulement deux produits et pour quelles
raisons l’asperge IGP et le Kaki AOP.
180
9. (p. 41) Action road show en Italie insuffisamment décrite, est-il possible de préciser
davantage l’action, les villes dans lesquelles elle va avoir lieu ? A quoi correspondent
les frais de voyage Km 782 ? Expliquer le nombre de 26 hôtesses prévu dans le budget
(tableau page 45).
10. (p. 46) Dans la description de l’action de sensibilisation sur les marchés de gros en
Allemagne, il est indiqué (p. 39) qu’elle aura lieu au sein des 5 à 7 marchés de gros les
plus importants d’Allemagne. Pourquoi a-t-on alors besoin de 20 « merchandiser »
(coût total 6.000 euros) comme c’est indiqué dans le tableau budgétaire ?
11. (p.47) Dans le tableau budgétaire de l’Italie, pour le road show il existe une ligne
budgétaire de 13.450 euros par an pour « Impression brochures PLV, cadeaux, stand »
et une deuxième de 25.200 euros/an pour « Logistique PLV et produits en
dégustation ». En quoi consiste cette « Logistique PLV » additionnelle à la ligne
précédente ?
12. (p.47) Le matériel de dégustation (assiettes, serviettes, cure-dents etc) (20.000 euros)
est comptabilisé pour 40.000 unités. Le road show étant prévu, selon la description (p
41) pour 4 jours, est-ce réaliste ? Le prix total du road show (203.611 euros /an) est-il
justifié pour une si courte durée ? Justifier.
13. (p 52) Action Plan média internet : Les bannières porteront-elles sur le programme en
général ou sur les fruits en particulier. Dans ce dernier cas, est-ce qu’elles
concerneront les 8 fruits et légumes du programme ou les sites nationaux ne porteront
que sur les fruits ou légumes à promouvoir dans leur marché (Italie 4 produits,
Allemagne, 1 produit) ?
14. Pourquoi le plan média en France se concentre exclusivement sur la presse écrite
professionnelle (alors que le projet de l'action 1 la vise déjà)? (impact prévisionnel très
faible - 150000 contacts par rapport aux 1.000.000 de contacts en Allemagne -pour un
budget très élevé)
15. (p 54) Justifier la différence de montants pour la même action Média/Internet en Italie
(28.281 euros) et en Allemagne (15.425,03 euros).
Impact/Evaluation:
Les données des ventes du Kaki Ribera del Xuquer fournies dans le tableau p. 19, 25.000
tonnes sont des ventes dans le marché ciblé, c'est-à-dire la France ?
(p. 63) A-t-il été vérifié que les organismes compétents (homologues de l’INAO pour la
France) en Italie et Espagne délivrent des déclarations annuelles des volumes vendus sous
IGP/AOP des fruits et légumes concernés dans les marchés cibles concernés (exemple volume
Kaki AOP vendu en France).

Programme summary for the Spokespersons' service (brief description of products,
objectives, target groups, actions). Preferably in EN and 2 paragraphs max.
A Dutch three year informative and promotional campaign which aims at increasing the
consumption of cut flowers of European origin. The programme will run in the Netherlands,
Germany, France and the United Kingdom where through attracting consumers, maintaining
contact with consumers and spreading the message through social media the objectives will
be pursued.
Thereby two specific groups of consumers will be targeted, 'cultivated performers' and
'cosiness seekers', and wholesalers and florists will be implied as supporting target groups
needed to reach the main two target groups.
By increasing the knowledge on the variety of cut flowers, the programme should lead to a
change in behaviour and attitude regarding the spending of cut flowers resulting in structural
higher purchasing intentions.
The programme amounts to a total budget of 8.073.579 EUR of which the EU co-finances
50% and the Foundation Flower Council of Holland finances the other half.

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
Objectif(s) :
To increase the consumption of cut flowers of Community origin.
Stratégie :
To inform consumers on the wide product variety of cut flowers, produced in the Community
and thereby increase consumption
Germany, France, UK and Netherlands have been chosen as target countries for the campaign
because the market situation in those countries enables the execution of one campaign. This
makes the campaign very efficient.
In the communication strategy three mutual connected fundaments are designated that
contribute to the realization of a maximum reach of consumers, both qualitative and
quantitative:
184
Attracting consumers by means of orchestrated activities, aimed at specific target groups of
consumers.
Maintaining contact with consumers by means of internet platforms that enlarge
commitment from/with consumers
Spreading the message and the activities by using the social media of committed consumers.
Herewith conversation value is created and committed and inspired ambassadors/consumers
spread the message.
Base of the campaign is a (mobile) video game with an older and obvious rich lady and five
young and gorgeous gardeners who execute orders of the old lady (voice-over only). The five
gardeners show a large variety of cut flowers of which the player of the game can choose
from. At the end one ‘favorite flower’ remain and this favorite flower is presented in a
spectacular way. The outcome of the game can be shared on Facebook and Twitter by a direct
connection and the gamer can invite friends to play the game too in order to see if the friend
chooses the favorite flowers the initial gamer presumed. If there is a match both gamers win a
bouquet of the favorite flower. The campaign directly aims at the consumer by social media &
advertising and POS-material and with information bearers & advertising to wholesalers and
retailers to inform them about the activities.
The target groups of the campaign are pointed at the game by advertisements in specific
magazines, a large outdoor campaign with direct connection to the game by means of a QRcode, pr-activities and pr-stunts in some large cities in all four countries.
The objectives, choice of target groups, the strategy and the visible actions are coherent and
integrated.
Cibles :
Main target group:
Specific groups of consumers:
High end market:
‘Cultivated Performer’ as frontrunner and trend maker
High End / Mass Market:
‘Cosiness Seeker’ as important frontrunner
Supporting target groups:
Wholesalers and florists in Germany, France, United Kingdom and Netherlands. A small part
of the budget will be spent to inform wholesalers and florists about the campaign in their
specific role as part of the chain.
Thèmes :
Consumer’s spending promotion and information for the category ‘Living plants and products
of ornamental horticulture’, more specifically: cut flowers.
Aspects couverts:
image des produits communautaires
Messages à communiquer :
The promotion of the large assortment of cut flowers that is produced in the European Union,
is aimed at enlarging consumer’s spending on cut flowers. Concrete messages are:
 Top quality cut flowers are available in a very large assortment
 They bring new life in relations between people (the gift component)
 Cut flower make you feel happy
185
Actions, y inclus leur portée/volume et calendrier prévisionnel :
There is 1 general (not-country related) budget sheet and 4 per member state with quantity
and volumes and provisional time schedule of the actions.

Impact prévisible :
The prognosticated impact of the proposed campaign on consumer’s level will be as follows:








Knowledge of the large assortment of cut flowers that are produced in the European
Community will increase
Behaviour and Attitude regarding the spending of cut flowers will improve which
results in structural higher purchasing intentions.
Activities in the campaign will trigger consumers directly to purchase cut flowers.
In each of the countries involved in this campaign consumer’s purchasing will
increase as a result of the campaign (or a foreseen decrease in consumption will be
smaller)
Based on actual consumer’s spending in 2013 as well as a forecast of autonomous
change in spending (increase or decrease) , the positive result of the entire campaign
will amount for approximately € 239 mln. (see table)
In 2014 the campaign will (partly) absorb the expected decrease of consumer’s
spending on cut flowers in France, UK and Netherlands.
In 2015 the campaign will partly absorb the expected decrease of consumer’s spending
on cut flowers in France and UK.
In the years in which some parts of the campaign will not take place in one of the
countries involved, there still is a positive influence because of the fact that some parts
of the campaign will still be visible, such as the game, YouTube movies, the internet
site and social networks.

Méthodes d’appréciation de l’impact :
The Flower Council has standard procedures concerning result measuring for all its activities.
These standards are based on regulations of the Horticulture Product Board in the Netherlands
and are in compliance with the rules of this program of co financing. Independent and
specialized companies investigate the impact of all activities according to EU-standards.
The standard result assessments are based on generally accepted consumer marketing units:
Knowledge, Attitude and Behaviour. Changes/improvements in Knowledge, Attitude and
Behavior of consumers (and retailers) will be assessed.
Most important assessment will be:
Based on a zero-measurement at the start of the campaign, the consumer’s spending as
forecasted in the table above, will be assessed. This will be calculated as spending on cut
flowers per capita.
The following questions (amongst others)1 will be asked in the annual assessment (in 2013
there will be pilot-assessment)
1
Exact questions will be composed in close cooperation with research bureau and will be available upon request for the National Authority
and/or the EU.

RÉSULTAT DE L’EXAMEN D’ÉLIGIBILITÉ ET DE LA QUALITE:
Remarques :
Eligibilité du programme :
oui/non
Premières observations à communiquer à l’EM :
1. Page 10 of proposal: Please provide the source of the data mentioned in the table at the
bottom of the page;
2. Page 11 of proposal: On what grounds do you claim to be able to reach 51,3% of all
Facebook users, and how do you explain that it is likely ("aannemelijk") that the selected
target groups will use more intensively Facebook?
3. Page 12 of proposal:
- Market situation per country: the data used for Germany and the UK are not recent
enough to make a reasonable assessment of the current market situation (2008 data for
Germany and 2007 data for UK);
- It is unclear which data source has been used for each of the different paragraphs
(production, development sale channels and consumption, development use social
media and internet); please provide more details on which source was used for which
paragraph, and give references;
- It is incorrect to use data on Social Media to make assumptions on the use of Facebook
(social media is more than Facebook); please adjust the proposal accordingly;
- Provide a reference of the quoted Nielsen research;
4. Page 14 of proposal:
- Under the section "development sale channels and consumption" of the market situation
in The Netherlands following statement:
"Op basis van aantallen bloemen is de situatie geheel anders. Door het veel lagere
prijspeil mindere kwaliteit, weinig tot geen toegevoegde waarde) van de bloemen in de
supermarkt is het aandeel van de supermarkt naar schatting van handelaren beduidend
meer dan 50%. Cijfers hierover ontbreken echter."
If there is no supporting data, how can you then make this assumption; please explain;
193
- Under the section "development use social media and internet" it is stated that the Dutch
are amongst the biggest users of social media; how is this claim supported, and here
also Facebook and social media are wrongly used as synonyms;
5. Page 16 of proposal: in the section "Coherence between actions and objectives", it is
claimed that "Cut flowers destined for the higher market segment are almost always produced
in the EU"; please provide data supporting this claim;
6. Page 17 of proposal: describing the acceptability (SMART objectives) of the proposal, it is
claimed that 8mio EUR of the campaign only represents 3% of the (predicted) profit; that
would mean that the (predicted) profit would be 266mio EUR whereas on page 39 (expected
impact) a prognosis of 239mio EUR is made; please explain this difference;
7. Page 18 of proposal: it is claimed that growing use of social media will lead to a higher
spreading of the message; please explain on which – reliable - base this assumption is being
made;
8. Page 27 of proposal: the mentioned cost for action A5 (11.200 EUR) does not correspond
with the cost mentioned in the table on page 28 and with the budget table under section 8;
please adjust accordingly;
9. Page 37 of proposal: "Honorarium van het Uitvoeringsorgaan": is the use of time sheets
foreseen for the personnel costs or will the flat rate be used; now it seems that timesheets are
being used for the calculation of the flat rate cost; please clarify;
10. Page 38 of proposal: an asumption is made in relation to an expected decrease in
consumption in 2014 and 2015; please explain on what grounds this assumption has been
made?
Additional remarks:
- It would be in favour of the European dimension of the programme if the used extension of
the various digital carriers would be ".eu". Therefore the European Commission suggests
the use of this extension for the programme.
- Please explain how, if necessary, the proposing organisation will select the implementing
body in accordance with Art 13§2 of Reg 501/2008.

Strategy :
Campaign’s strategy focuses around culinary meat and meat products certified within the
QAFP Quality System mark. Informational activities will be targeted at three groups: TG1 Consumers (split for 2 sub-groups – women responsible for household shopping, and so
called “foodies” , for which cooking and culinary experience are a hobby), TG2 – HoReCa
group, and TG3 – journalists and key opinion leaders. Three sets of activates have been
planned for different target groups. First set have been planned for mentioned above target
groups. It includes building and managing a www site containing all the necessary
information and frequently updated news, public relations activities as well as informational
materials distributed during different events. Second set of activities is aimed for consumers,
and those activities include: press campaign, idea placement campaign in tv, ad campaign in
cinemas, outdoor campaign on city-light media, internet campaign and set of events. The last,
third set of activities is aimed for HoReCa group, and these are QAFP workshops, planned for
chefs. All these activates have been design to provide all the necessary information regarding
QAFP Guaranteed Quality System while reaching a wide spectrum of representatives of the
provided target groups, for which subjects as food quality, safety, it’s repeatability and
accessibility are a key factor and concern. They have been also focused around spring and
Christmas time, in both cases which these are the moments of increased demand for pork and
pork products.
In terms of strategy it is important to achieve the desired perception of meat produced in
QAFP system. Regardless of the diversity of the priority objectives within specific target
groups, the key is the image of the product and the perception of its benefits in a consistent
manner.
Therefore the strategy is to build a perception of QAFP meat as following:
QAFP meat is a good choice
 The entire production cycle is controlled to guarantee high quality of the meat
 Ease of choosing a high quality - the meat is packaged and labeled, properly stored
QAFP meat price is adequate to the quality
 QAFP meat is a good choice
 This is an important element of food pyramid - contains essential components, is a
source of protein and vitamins
QAFP meat have the right amount of fat and comes from a trusted source - affects my
well-being
 great part of a healthy and active lifestyle
QAFP meat is a choice of taste
 QAFP meat is tender, juicy and soft
 It is a taste that both kids and adults like
 QAFP meat can be prepared in various ways without any difficulty
 It is easy to prepare and can supply an infinite amount of culinary ideas
The Key issue in the program is the synergy of activities for the three groups and the fit of
individual messages and their mutual integration
Important are:

Actions, including their scope/volume and a provisional timetable:
The actions designed for the campaign have been split into 3 main groups.
204
In case of first group, so called “Shared” group (TG1, TG2, TG3), it consists of www site
production and update, PR activities (press office, press conference, workshops, reports) and
production and distribution of press report. WWW site and press office will be working
throughout whole campaign, except the so called start-up time in case of the site.
Informational materials will be produced at the start of the campaign and distributed during
different events and workshops.
In case of the second group, targeted at TG1 – meaning consumers, it consists of: press and
internet campaigns, cinema campaign, idea placement campaign in tv, outdoor campaign and
direct events. In case of press campaign 22 titles have been chosen, in which press ads and
advertorials will be presented every year, during both spring and Christmas time. The same
model has been used in case of internet campaign, where banners film ads will be presented at
six portals during the same period of time, as in case of press. Cinema campaign, due to its
characteristics, has been planned for the first and second year, to help developed the initial
impact, and it will be provided in three cinema networks during spring and Christmas again.
Idea placement campaign has been planned during every year, again in the same period of
time, in two breakfast television programs. Outdoor campaign will be present in six polish
major cities and agglomerations, while using the city-light media on bus and tram stops. The
last planned activity – direct actions – three workshops for consumers organized with the help
of press and contests for bloggers.
Third and last group of activities is target at TG2, meaning HoReCa group, and it only
consists of QAFP Workshops. These workshops, 7 per year, will be organized for chefs. Their
aim will be to both inform them regarding the QAFP quality system as well as to educate
them about the proper meat preparation and processing.
The volume and planned schedule of the mentioned above actions has been presented in the
diagram below.

RESULT OF THE ELIGIBILITY AND QUALITY EXAMINATION
Remarks:
In application of Article 7(1) of Council Regulation 3/2008, the Member States concerned
shall examine the suitability of proposals for programmes and shall verify their conformity
with the said Regulation, the guidelines drawn up and the relevant specifications. They shall
also check that the programme offers value for money.
In application of Article 8(2) of Commission Regulation 501/2008, the programmes submitted
shall contain sufficient detail to comply with the applicable rules and enable their cost/benefit
ratio to be evaluated.
In application of Article 19(1) of Regulation 501/2008 an annual report must contain an
evaluation of the results obtained.
208
However:
1. In the programme there is no mention of another currently co-financed running
programme on the QAFP system (on poultry and goose meat, by National Poultry Council
– KRD, which started 28/9/2011, duration 3 years); a parallel programme on the QAFP
system in the Polish market would be possible (in particular because it is for pig meat and
not poultry), it should however be indicated in this proposal how actions will be organised
in order to be sure that resources will not be doubled for the same events, audiences etc.,
and it should all the more so be indicated what possible synergies and mutual
reinforcements of these campaigns could be observed for an increased information impact
in the Polish market;
2. The objective of the proposed programme is correctly "information", so the improvement
of sales is, also correctly, not a direct objective of the programme, but only a secondary
and complementing one; however, more data on the level of production of pigmeat in the
QAFP system should be provided, as well as the levels of its consumption in Poland, so
that it could be assessed that the product does exist in the target market and is available
for the potential buyers; also a quantified forecast on the production potential of QAFP
pigmeat in the future should be given; moreover it should be noted that "distributors" are
not a direct target group of the campaign – please explain how the programme will
contribute to the increased presence of the QAFP pigmeat in the market without targeting
directly the distributors;
3. Please foresee among the messages to be applied in the programme in the course of its
implementation the type of messages that are foreseen in the sectoral Guidelines for this
sector in Annex I of Reg. 501/2008; moreover the measurement of the impact of the
programme (in the domain of the increased awareness) should be focussed on the
observation of an improvement of knowledge of these messages.
Moreover, please adjust the following points:
4. On p. 38 in the description of the tender procedure for the selection of the implementing
body it is mentioned that 3 final offers came on 18 March, however on the previous page
it results that the date should be 8 March – please clarify;
5. When catering, tastings or seminars with the use of QAFP meat are mentioned in the
programme (for instance on p. 136, 139, 213), please confirm that the meat products will
be delivered at factory prices;
6. On p. 139 the assumed size of the room should be mentioned, the fees of the "expert and
service" should be broken down and justified better, the description of the "follow up of
invitations" should be improved;
7. On p. 143 the yearly cost of 42.240 EUR should be broken down more – who will be
hired in the press office?, what type of personnel?, what part of the amount above
mentioned is going to be made up of "cost of running of the press office"?, what does the
latter include? How will the daily work of the press office be monitored?
8. On p. 144 please justify better the level of the flat-rate fees of the experts, or if applicable
reduce them to average market levels;
9. On p. 169, 171 and 214 the expected size of each advertorial is provided, but not the
expected page in the selected magazines – please provide this information;
10. On p. 175 the strategy of the idea placement is focussed on breakfast broadcasts; please
explain if there is no other type of popular TV programme where the information actions
may take place (which would be perhaps a more preferable one for quality pig meat)?
Popular broadcasts aired at the time of barbecues or dinners (more in the evening time
slots) may be also recommended. If it is still reckoned that breakfast programmes are the
best tool, please improve the justification of this choice.
11. On p. 185 the actions "RPM" and "sound group" should be explained better; moreover
some words is clearly missing in some of the sub-actions, please verify and add the
209
missing wording; finally please explain on the basis of which strategy are the costs of the
spot campaigns calculated – is it on the basis of the strategy of "purchase of guaranteed
audience" mentioned on p. 183? Does the choice of this strategy mean that the length of
the action in the cinemas may be longer/shorter than assumed (in order to reach the
guaranteed audience)?
12. On p. 198 – how can the effectiveness of the viral spots be measured? Is there a way of
assessing the number of views of each clip? Moreover, can the costs of production of the
movies be lowered by re-using some materials/concepts from other actions of the
programme?
13. In the programme you may consider using a website with the ".eu" extension, which could
be used along with, or at least lead to, the foreseen ".pl" website, please consult
http://www.ambitionhasanaddress.eu/pl;

particular;
# 1 - Report the current quality level of the Vinho Verde wine and demonstrate it through

212
Strategy :
The program to be implemented is based on a clear differentiation strategy of Vinho Verde
PDO (based on the unique attributes of PDO Vinho Verde) and great value of the Protected
Designation of Origin Vinho Verde (different profiles of Vinho Verde for higher prices
categories).
Target group(s) :
- Trade/Professionals - This audience includes the media/journalists, importers, distributors,
retailers and sommeliers.
More than a business partner, the trade is an important vehicle for educating consumers,
acting as trendsetters, often explaining and influencing consumers in choosing the wine. In
this sense the role of sommeliers is fundamental in restaurants as well as retailers in
supermarkets, liquor stores, and hotels and importers in influencing distributors. Journalists
have the power to educate and influence professionals and consumers.
- Adult Consumers.
Themes :
1. Specifications, quality and diversity of European Wines
2. Information about the Community regulations on wines with protected designation of
origin, in particular the Vinho Verde PDO regulation
To benefit from a PDO label, the viticultural product is subject to rigorous control of
every phase of its production, from vine to consumer. The grape varieties used, the
methods of vinification and its organoleptic characteristics are only some of the elements
whose control contributes to the award of this PDO. It is the responsibility of the Regional
Viticultural Commissions to carry out this control, so as to guarantee the authenticity and
quality of PDO products from within its specified regions.
The certification Vinho Verde PDO shows that the requirements lay down by the
Common Wine-growing Market Organization (European Commission regulations), by
National legislation and the rules of the Region itself, have been met, relating to:
- Geographic area of production;
- Types of soils for the vines;
- Suitability of grape varieties;
- Cultural practices and methods of training vines (traditional and those recommended by
CVRVV);
- Register and characterization of the vines;
- Yield per hectare;
- Wine-making methods and practices;
- Oenological practices;
- Minimum natural alcohol content;
- Physical-chemical and organoleptic characteristics;
- Wine-making, distillation, storage and pre-packaging facilities;
- Inscription according to the general norms of the Vine and Wine Institute and the
internal procedures of CVRVV;
- Distribution and marketing;
- Labeling to be used on containers.
3. Information about the Vinho Verde PDO, certified quality, the intrinsic qualities of this
wine.
For the consumer, a viticultural product that carries a PDO label is sure to be genuine and
authentic, a favorable factor in the perception of its quality.
4. Vinho Verde and food.
213
Aspects covered :
quality
wines with a protected designation of origin or a protected
geographical indication, wines with an indication of the wine grape
variety.
Messages to be conveyed :
- The Vinho Verde is a European wine with PDO; certificate.
- Vinho Verde offers appealingly light wines and lower alcohol wines, reflecting the natural
assets of this unique coastal wine region.
- There is no other wine like Vinho Verde in the world. Vinho Verde provides refreshingly
different wines to most other great white wine regions by basing much of its winemaking
craft on the clever use of blends from several indigenous varietals, including the classic
Alvarinho.
- These qualities together deliver a range of distinctively fresh, crisp, and lightly aromatic
styles.
- There are different profiles of Vinho Verde, which share common characteristics
(freshness, lightness, low alcohol) but present with different styles - white, rosé, sparkling
and sparkling, semi-sweet, dry batch, varietal, etc.
- Vinho Verde wine is surprisingly gourmet (food friendly), harmonize with huge dishes and
international cuisines
- Always great value – outstanding quality wine at everyday and premium price ranges; ideal
for many relaxing wine moments and food occasions.
All these messages are based on the intrinsic qualities of the PDO Vinho Verde and conform
to the law applicable in the target markets.
It is intended to communicate a Europe rich in tradition and culture, whose values are
revealed in agricultural products (wines) that are produced with quality in the European
Community; to demonstrate to Third Countries the ability that European Community have, as
experienced producer of quality wines, to combine these cultural and historical values with
modern technologies and consumer tastes.

RESULT OF THE ELIGIBILITY AND QUALITY EXAMINATION
Remarks:
This programme is the continuation of four programmes:
- Programa de Promoção do Vinho Verde em Países Terceiros (FEOGA - Nº 04DFA2/SPA-040), aprovado a 22 de Abril de 2004 e com bom término a 21 de Abril de
2006 (mercados visados: EUA, CANADA, BRASIL E SUÍÇA);
- Programa de Informação e Promoção do Vinho Verde nos Países Terceiros (FEOGA contrato 07- DFA/SPA-025), comparticipado pelo IFAP/EU, com bom término a 4 de
Março de 2010 (mercados visados: EUA, CANADA, BRASIL, SUÍÇA E NORUEGA);
- Programa Reforço de Informação e Promoção dos Vinhos Verdes (DOP) nos Países
Terceiros (Contrato FEAGA n.º 05 02 10 01 – 3801 437), comparticipado pelo
IFAP/EU, com bom término a 25 de Fevereiro de 2013 (mercados visados: EUA,
CANADA, BRASIL, SUÍÇA E NORUEGA);
- Promoção de vinho em mercados de países terceiros, Concurso nº 1/2010, contracto
0011/APVMPT/11, comparticipado pela IFAP/EU, em execução da terceira e última
fase (mercados visados: EUA, CANADA, BRASIL E SUÍÇA).
Annual reports of these programmes were sent together with this application and show the
positive impacts these programmes had on the target markets.
One has to note that CVRVV is representing a very high number of producers (21,000) and
that although the programmes seem to repeat themselves, they may benefit different
producers and target different markets within a country. CVRVV indeed intends to extend the
range of wines proposed in each of these target markets.
Programme eligible:
Yes/No
First observations to be communicated to MS:
Proposing organisation and implementing body:
- The Member State is asked to confirm whether the proposing organisation is a public or
private body, in the sense of Article 1(9) of Directive 2004/18/EC (c.f. Article 13(2) of
Regulation 501/2008).
- As there is a risk of double funding of promotion activities for wine in third countries,
the Member State is asked to confirm that the activities foreseen within this programme
will not receive any other funding from the EU, in particular within the framework of
the wine support programme (Article 103p of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007).
- Provide a detailed calendar for the procedure to be followed to select the implementing
body (p. 11).
Programme type:
- According to the objectives and actions description, the programme type should be
modified to mixed and not promotion only (p. 13).
Objectives:
- All objectives should be quantified for each target country. Some indications are given
under the impacts' section but they should be further detailed under this chapter (p. 18).
Actions:
For all target countries:
- Media Trade and Consumer Material: provide more detailed information on the type of
material to be produced as well as to whom they will be distributed; justify the wide
range of costs used (from 3,500 to 10,150 EUR);
- Educational tastings: indicate the approximate numbers of participants/contacts per
training; justify the unit cost used per training (this cost varies from 1,000 to 2,500 EUR
depending of the target country); confirm that the cost of the wine used for tasting
230
corresponds to factory prices. If it is not possible in some of the target markets (for
example because of monopolies), duly justify the costs used;
- Samples transport: justify the costs foreseen with the volumes transported and the
distances.
For USA actions:
- Press office (USA): confirm that the cost of the wine samples to be sent to journalists
and bloggers corresponds to factory prices; indicate the size of these samples (p. 28);
- Website (USA): in the description of this action (USA), it is clearly mentioned that this
corresponds mainly to the maintenance of the existing website while in the cost section,
the cost foreseen includes much more. Please clarify and justify the cost;
- Media & Trade meetings (USA): justify or modify the numbers of hours attributed to
the coordination of these actions by the executive agency (37.5 hours) as similar actions
in other countries require less time;
- Market Study (USA): this study is part of the compulsory final evaluation of the
programme and does not represent an action as such. It should therefore be removed
from this chapter and its cost should be included in the 3% foreseen for the final
evaluation (see below in budget).
Impacts and final evaluation:
- Indicate the expected numbers of direct and indirect contacts for each action;
- An evaluation study is foreseen for the USA market and is proposed to be used to
extrapolate the impacts of the programme in the other target countries. Provide more
details on this evaluation and on its methodology. In addition, it seems that
extrapolating the data obtained from this study to results obtained on the other target
markets will have its limitations and won't produce reliable data to assess the overall
impact of the programme. Therefore the final evaluation methodology should be refined
and further detailed.
Budget and administrative certificates:
- The cost of the implementing body is based on time sheets and not on a percentage fee.
As a result it sometimes represents more than 40% of the cost of the actions. This seems
very high and should be duly justified or revised if necessary;
- 3% for the compulsory final evaluation of the programme should be added to the
budget.
- Financing plan: two plans are presented, one with 20% MS co-financing and one with
no MS co-financing. This is not allowed as the co-financing plan should be determined
when the proposal is submitted. Confirm that the MS will finance 20% as stated in their
summary table and remove the other financing table from the proposal. The declaration
of the proposing organisation should also be modified accordingly;
- The social security and financial certificates are not valid anymore and should be
resubmitted.
European dimension:
- It would be in favour of the European dimension of the programme if the used
extension of the various digital carriers would be ".eu". Therefore the European
Commission suggests the use of this extension for the programme.

and development of rural areas and population.
Strategy :
In order to achieve our goals and proposed objectives, we have decided for a strategy of
development which lays in a fluid communication process, capable of changing the
consumers’ habits.
The strategy is based on three complementary areas, which should always be looked upon in a
combined manner:
1. Marketing and communication should accompany the entire program, and make easier the
information flow, laying down conditions for the consumers better understanding of our
messages.
2. As far as the public relations actions are concerned, the direct contact with different
audiences will allow us to better interact, especially with children. These actions are of
extreme importance as they allow the development of experimentation activities, which
will work as consumption enhancer.
3. Events and Fairs: fairs still have a major importance in the food sector, as always are
present the major distributors. The events will be activities that will allow us to have a
more near and direct contact with different audiences.
It’s our belief that this strategy is the more correct and appropriate to achieve the goals
and proposed objectives.
Target group(s) :
1. Families, particularly young families (less than 35 years);
2. Youth population (ages between 5 and 12);
3. Restoration, school canteens and distribution companies;
4. Media and Social communication.
Themes :
1. With this program we aim to develop the message: “Do you really know honey?”. With
this message we intend to create expectations in the consumers, and by that, growth the
awareness for the benefits of honey consumption.
2. Additionally we intend to promote the increase of honey consumption, and to establish an
consumption habit, through the message: “More Honey, More Life”
Aspects covered :
quality
safety of food
nutritional values
labelling
respect for the environment
image of Community products
Messages to be conveyed :
1. The benefits and different applicability of honey as food;
2. Beekeeping is an environmental friendly activity, perfectly integrated in natural
ecosystems and habitats;
235
3. The profits and indirect benefits of beekeeping and honey consumption for today society
and global economy are unquestionable and not measureable.

private body, in the sense of Article 1(9) of Directive 2004/18/EC (c.f. Article 13(2) of
Regulation 501/2008).
- Selection of the implementing body: reference should be made to annex 6 and not 7 (p.
7).
Target markets and objectives:
- Clarify which are the target markets (chapter 4.4, p. 8): add Portugal explicitly in the
list given; since DE, FR, ES, SE and UK are also mentioned as markets targeted
through this programme, the current situation of honey on these markets should be
added in chapter 5.1.
- Objectives should be better aligned with the guidelines of Annex I of Regulation
501/2008; for instance, the following objectives should be deleted:
o lower the average age of honey consumers
o change the present balance of the Portuguese market
o channel the expected production growth
- Objectives should all be SMART, in particular they need to be quantified and
measurable for each of the target markets (p. 13).
Actions:
- For all actions, include in their description (in chapter 5.5 – and not in the annexes) a
table presenting their respective costs. In particular:
o align description of action 1 in chapter 5.5 (p. 17-21) with the budgetary
breakdown provided p. 36.
o provide breakdown costs for the following actions (p. 36) as they are currently
missing from the proposal:
 First three marketing and communication activities
 Video
 National Fashion Events
 Meliseme
 Aldeia do Mel
- Action 1.B (p. 18): clarify how many press conferences will be organised, provide more

communication materials? Will you need translation costs? If so, their relative costs
should be included.
- Action 2.A (p. 22): precise when, where, for how long and who will participate in the
National Fashion Events.
- Action 2.C (p. 26): according to the calendar it is foreseen to visit 74 schools during
three months each year (including the month of December). Is that realistic? If too
ambitious, modify the calendar accordingly; provide information on the "brinde
promocional" to be distributed at the School events.
241
- Action 3 (p. 23): clarify if you intend to participate in the Feira Agricola de Santarem or
in the Salao de Prazer de Provar as stated in the annex and in the calendar; reference
should be made to annex 7 and not 8 (p. 24); provide more details on the actions to be
carried out on the main squares: where, when, how long, who, how many visitors
expected, etc.? In annex 7, SISAB should be organised in 2015 and not in 2014 as
mentioned in the calendar.
- Action 4.A (p. 25): provide more details, in particular on who will participate, how
many participants, how long will it last; explain the cities chosen.
- Action 4.B (p. 25): provide more details, in particular where will it take place, what will
be the programme of this event, who and how many persons will participate, etc.
Impact and final evaluation:
- Provide more details on the methodology of the final evaluations (p. 32): who will carry
it out, who will be interviewed, etc. Ensure that all objectives for each target markets
will be assessed through these.
- Note that to take maximum benefits of initial studies, we highly recommend to carry
them out before proposals are made. This indeed enables a better design of the
proposals. Therefore ensure that this initial study will be carried out at the very
beginning of the programme.
- Revise the quantification of foreseen direct impacts:
o 74 schools (and not 75) will be visited by the FNAP associates as one per year
is already counted in the School action with a public figure.
o ANUGA, action in Cologne: only one participation is foreseen according to
calendar.
o SIAL, action in Paris: two participations are foreseen according to calendar.
o The 3 Meliseme actions are missing and should be added.
- Number of contacts through the website (25 visits per day during three years) may be
too optimistic, revise if necessary.
Budget:
- Ensure consistency between the budget breakdowns provided in chapter 5.5 and the
summary budgetary table (chapter 8 – p. 36).
- Provide the budget breakdown by target markets.
- Travels and accommodation costs for members of the proposing organisation (FNAP)
are not eligible as such and should be included in the general costs sub-items; therefore
delete all these costs in each of the actions.
- Confirm that the costs of samples to be distributed are factory prices.
- Confirm the size of samples to be distributed during all relevant actions; for instance,
30g to be used for schools but what about other activities such as fairs.
- Justify the higher cost for the chef participating in the school actions (300 EUR/day
compared to 200 EUR/day for other actions) or modify accordingly.
European dimension:
- It would be in favour of the European dimension of the programme if the used
extension of the various digital carriers would be ".eu". Therefore the European
Commission suggests the use of this extension for the programme.
Administrative certificates:
- Modify and resubmit the FNAP declaration to be consistent with the financing plan
provided.
- Resubmit more recent attestations for finance and social security.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAMME :
Objective(s)
Strategic objectives of the IVDP: the IVDP has the mission to guarantee the sustainability of
the row.
 To Promote the Concept of the Denomination of Origin, created and developed in
Europe, undertaking communication activities about quality, typicality, norms,
labelling, notoriety of the system, the increment of value and guarantee using, as an
example, the Porto and Douro D.O.s.
Over the three-year period, the aim is to reach out directly to over 40 000 European
citizens and to over 150 000 indirectly via the Media. Most of these citizens work in
the wine business, directly or indirectly (restaurants, tourism, food distribution,
teaching and the Press.
The advantages of the excellence of European agricultural products will also be thus
shown, when integrated in healthy competition with wine products from other parts of
the World.
In this strategy, the communication of the “Wine in Moderation” program, a
245
European strategy for moderate wine consumption, will be ever-present in the
IVDP’s message and also all its activities in this project.
 To contribute towards the rise in value-added wine sales quotas in the markets in
question, especially the Premium Port and Douro categories. In markets where
consumption is decreasing, strategies to communicate the concept “drink better” in
quality and price should be devised. A sustained project focusing on premium wines
meets this objective whilst, at the same time, improving the health and dynamics of
the Douro Demarcated Region wines (Port and Douro wines) and – also – the
economic activity of the EU agricultural sector.
With this project, the aim is to:
 Increase by 2% in the Special categories Ports (global Port sales in each market).

Increase sales of DOC Douro wines to the markets in question by 3% a year
(average price)
In view of these objectives, below is a projection of the respective growths in each of the
target markets:
 To reach out to both professionals and wine appreciators, as a strategic
communications axis of the two previous objectives. Being aware of the challenges
involved in direct communication with the final consumer, there is a huge amount of
on-going work to be carried out with this public. The aim is to contact the targets
either before their integration in the work place (schools and other teaching facilities)
or once they are working (associations, companies, groups, trade fairs, etc.).
The objective of the IVDP is to organize activities in 180 hotel schools in France,
Spain and Germany (through the holding of Master Classes). Portugal has an
autonomous program to this project, in the IVDP’s promotional budget, but the
objectives and strategies are shared. In all, it is possible that 3000 pupils will have
been involved in these activities over three years, professionals who will swell the
ranks of the European labour market. With the activities for professionals, the targets
are sommeliers, chefs, owners and managers, waiters, beverage and supermarket
retailers, buyers and journalists, totalling 6000 professionals over the duration of the
project. All these targets will have had direct contact with the Denomination of
Origin concept and with both Port and Douro wines.
Strategy :
The markets were carefully selected based on the large experience of the IVDP, in the actual
context of supply and demand whilst taking into account the results of several events
organized in the past few years. Knowledge of the markets and the program of proposed
events will permit that the defined targets be reached.
246
The Communication strategies of this program are based on these axes:
 Public relations events: tasting and educational events: different wine tastings
among the target public (journalists, opinion leaders, wine professionals, On and Off
Trade, etc.). These events will take place in very prestigious spaces and have a strong
media impact. This type of public relations events will guide consumers to choose the
wines from the Community be it in the supermarkets, in restaurants or other places.
 Training and informational events about the quality of the Douro and Port
wines in Hotel and Catering Schools and Colleges: this type of event aims to create
awareness and interest in future professionals of this sector and allow them to obtain
deeper and more complete knowledge about our products. The French and Spanish
markets were selected for these activities.
 Training for Professionals: events aimed at providing on-going training and
information, including seminars, providing reliable information to this public on the
EU norms.
 Training for Consumers: with a program directed to Port and Douro wine lovers,
we propose the holding of initiatives that are different and that cause impact thus
allowing us to approach to the capital’s public.
 Participate in fairs and other prestigious events: the presence of the Port and
Douro Wines in prestigious, internationally acclaimed fairs (Prowein and Vinexpo),
will promote and enhance the image of these, as well as other European wines and
products.
 Online Presence: the use of the internet, and other virtual tools, is considered
essential in the modern global village setting of online communications.
 Production and distribution of promotional material: the objective is to sustain
and strengthening all the marketing events previewed in the program, maximizing
their promotional effect and projecting to the target public a solid and positive image
of the promoted products.
Target group(s) :
These actions are intended to cover a diverse audience (final consumer) and prescriptor, who
can be the driving force in the sharing of experiences, enhancing the scope of these activities
and increasing the number of contacts made (adoption of a seed marketing strategy). The
target public of the proposed events is the “trade” professional sector of each market,
specially influential journalists (both specialized and more generalized), sommeliers, directors
of Food & Beverage, as well as buyers, retailers, agents, importers and other opinion leaders,
who can influence – in a positive way – future habits of E.U. consumers and their wine
preferences of wine. In some activities, the final consumer is also a target.
Themes :
Aspects covered :
quality
specific production methods
labelling
image of Community products
Community systems for PDO/PGI/TSG
wines with a protected designation of origin or a protected
geographical indication, wines with an indication of the wine grape
variety.
247
In relation to quality European wines (DOP and table wines with regional IG), focus will be
given to:
 The specificities which serve as a basis for the delimitation of the denominations of
origin;
 The organoleptic characteristics of the wines;
 Their process of certification;
 Their suitability and combination with the gastronomy of the target countries.
This project to promote the Port and Douro Denominations of Origin will centre on
communication, namely:
 The enhancement of Special Category Ports;
 To place focus on the complementary designations of Douro Wines (with emphasis
on the words "Reserve" and "Grande Reserva");
 The use of these as examples of the European Denomination of Origin System, which
recognizes and gives them unique and inimitable qualities;
 The recommendation of responsible and moderate consumption;
 Pairing of wines with local food.
Messages to be conveyed :
It the aim of the IVDP to inform consumers on the carefully conducted certification process
applied to these wines, thus demonstrating its added value in terms of health and food safety
and feasibility. In this way, Port and Douro wines are differentiated – and, by extension,
European wines – by their use of the region as the core of their promotional activities.
 We propose to demonstrate to the internal market the capacity of the Member States,
as experienced producers of quality wines, allying these cultural and historical values
to modern technology and the preferences of the Community and international
consumers by the use of tastings of, and information on, Port and Douro wines and
their links to the gastronomy of each member state.
 We aim to create a higher awareness and knowledge to the target public about the
guarantee of quality, typicality and authenticity of Port and Douro wines, produced in
the Douro Demarcated Region, using them as an example of the European Union
system of Denominations of Origin.
 We intend to promote to all publics the importance of responsible and moderate
consumption of Wine.
 We propose to inform consumers about the regulations governing the description,
denomination and presentation of the wines, namely their labelling.
 Make consumers aware of the importance of quality control in wines, of which the
IVDP laboratories are in international reference.

250
1.5 Porto Wine Fest (Vila Nova de Gaia) |Predicted duration: 6 days
With a program aimed at wine appreciators, wine connoisseurs and new consumers, as well as
both national and foreign tourists, the Porto Wine Fest was created. Its aims are to promote
and reinforce the Port brand in a contemporary, “cool” and trendy setting, to both actual and
future wine appreciators as well as tourists from both Portugal and abroad. Held on the bank
of the River Douro, in the heart of the historic Port bonded area, where the lodges are situated,
the event allows the visitor to taste a Port, to celebrate with Port, to relax with Port and to
snack with a Port. The Fest affords us the opportunity to bring a large number of consumers
and tourists closer to Port during the high point of the tourist season, giving us the chance to
de-bunk myths and show alternative forms of consuming Port. The Fest is also foodorientated and many well-known chefs as well as public personalities. During this event,
many novel Port-based cocktails will be presented. Visitors will be able to sample these and
learn first-hand how to make them, thus opening up a whole new avenue of opportunities of
consumption.
Objectives:

The activities are aimed at young people between the ages of 10 to 18. The events will take
place in the Douro Region. This novel project aims to organize “technical workshops” to
awaken, deepen and develop two senses fundamental to the development of human balance:
smell and taste.
Information in the form of kits with technical information and practical exercises will be
adapted according to the different classes and aims. The teams will be made up of teaching
and winemaking professionals.
The aim is to motivate younger people to the importance of these senses within the
framework of their full development and point the way to new horizons in the professional
sphere (for example, wine-making, catering, etc.).
Due to the young age of the target group, wine will not be present at these workshops, the
emphasis being on other food products.

VINEXPO is an excellent showcase, visited by buyers from the four corners of the Globe. It
is also a premium forum for the debate and exchange of ideas and trends on both the
production and sale of wines. VINEXPO also produced a number of important studies,
symposia and conferences where crucial wine-related matters are discussed, this being
considered of great relevance by the wine producers.
This international fair is also very influential both the home market and abroad. The inclusion
of this event has a transversal influence on the entire project.
Advantages:

in this fair, it is possible to obtain a global view of the markets and also accompany
closely the latest trends and future opportunities.
 The opportunity to be in constant contact with the wine world: VINEXPO is a leader
in this sector, uniting at one event hundreds of professionals crucial to incrementing
sales

2.3 Regional Seminars for Professionals | 1 day per seminar
The seminars listed in this action are aimed at a range of professionals concerned with the
wines. They include information sessions for chefs and cook associations and will be given a
strong emphasis on specialized retail stores, which are called in this market "cavistes". These
activities will focus on professionals and be based on informative and teaching activities
based on Douro and Port wines. The events are planned for Paris, Lyon, Marseilles,
Bordeaux, Toulouse, Lille, Dijon and Nice.
The IVDP, due to its legal status, is responsible for informing and promoting both the
European Protected Designation of Origin system as well as moderate drinking, activities that
it has developed over the years throughout Europe. It is intended to reach and inform these
targets about the benefits of protection and defence of protected designations of origin and the
252
maintenance of the application of the European system of quality wines, using as examples
the cases of the Port and Douro Wines.
The activities focus on communication of all aspects that make up the systems of Protected
Designation of Origin, its basis and legal reasoning, the law in the European context, its
implications, labelling and marketing, forms of fraud detection and defence European product
with DO and I.G as well.
The seminars will primarily aim to equip participants with tools to identify and protect the
quality wines produced in Demarced European Regions. Therefore we will contribute to
greater knowledge and awareness about the systems governing european quality products and,
in particular, Port and Douro wines, so that they can apply the knowledge gained in their
professional activities.
We will contribute to increase knowledge and awareness of the Target about European quality
products and, in particular, the Port and Douro wines, so that they can apply the gained
knowledge in their professional lives.
2.4 Seminars for Hospitality and Tourism schools (year-round activity)
These seminars are especially dedicated, prepared and directed to students and teachers of
hotels and tourism schools of France, who are under the jurisdiction of National Education
Ministry of France. They will be prepared together with teachers to better leverage the
information given to the students. We intend to hold 60 activities each year of the project in
the following cities: Aix-Marselles, Amiens, Bordeaux, Caen, Clarmont-Ferrand, Dijon,
Grenoble, Lille, Limoges, Lyon, Montpellier, Nancy, Metz, Orleans, Tours, Paris, Poitiers,
Reims, Rouen, Strasbourg, Toulouse and Versailles.
The Hospitality and Tourism schools are today a force of skilled human resources, reflected
in the enthusiasm that the industry have joined in the acceptance of these new experts in
hotels and tourism areas.
On the other hand, the schools have been giving great importance to the participation of their
students in festivals and national and international competitions.
These schools established itself as a center of cultural and technical level to prepare
professionals who can meet the challenges facing the business sector and institutional tourism
and hotels. Through a scientific and technical preparation objectified according to the needs
of the sector, recent graduates are true agents of change, capable of facing challenges and
opportunities in a great uncertainty context and intense competition. We believe that the
actions taken at Hospitality and Tourism schools have central importance for the development
and increased of the popularity of Portuguese wines, internally or externally.
Once that these schools have the future technical staffs of Hospitality and Tourism industry, it
is imperative to begin to "educate" them and make them aware to the importance of the wines
produced in the demarked region of the European Union, to their quality, to the requirements
and control.
The training courses aim to raise awareness and clarify the current students of Hospitality and
Tourism School for the known and recognized quality of our wines. These are the future chefs
and hoteliers responsible, whose role will be important for further dissemination and
appreciation of terroir and quality, increasing wine consumption in the EU.
2.5 “Master of Port” Contest | Duration: Annual
Port and Douro Wines and two national entities representing the professional sector, the
SGMP and USDF, took upon themselves the responsibility for the development of this action,
which contribute to the better knowledge of the Port Wine, of professionals connected with
the restoration, specifically sommeliers.
Candidates must have sommelier training and be over 18. They must also have a minimum of
two years professional experience as sommelier, Maître d’hôtel, Head waiter, restaurant
manager or wine buyer.
253
During the initial phase of the competition, competitor’s representatives of regional chambers
of the USDF will have to answer a written questionnaire to assess the expertise of each
participant, followed by a blind tasting of two Port wines.
This contest has two stages: Regional Finals and then a National Final. After scrutiny of the
exams by members of the Technical Committee of the USDF, the 12 best candidates go on to
the final to again undergo more rigorous testing of their knowledge and skills. Once the
Technical Committee of the USDF, headed by their President, have again marked the papers
and technical exercises, the winner is announced.
This contest is considered as an essential part of any sommeliers’ education and is an

2.6 Internet, Social Networks and Press Trips |Duration: annual
A considerable number of consumers interact daily over the Web. The interaction from this
media has proved over the last three years of major significance when compared with other
media, giving evidence that an online strategy should be considered in a marketing plan.
In the context we live, with rapidly changing online and offline, we already abandoned a
reactive web stance in favour of a more active participation on the web. We have evolved
from static web pages to the platform web where users create and develop relationships
through videos, podcasts, blogs and social networks, among others.
This new web paradigm moves through a constant consumption of content, which in turn
triggers a natural process by reaction of users sharing the free production and new contents.
Any user has now the ability and power to convey messages with intensity equal or greater,
since the digital environment allows obtaining genuine and transparent information.
We must understand how the online has transformed the world. Given the importance of the
French market for Port and Douro Wines, we believe necessary and important to capitalize
digital communication.
It is time to understand and demystify the myths around this media. It is our intention to:
 Develop the microsite to the French market, hosted by the IVDP site
 Manage of social networks in French and adapted to local market
Microsite: Internet is an indispensable tool in the search for information from our target. The
development of a microsite is fundamental to the communication and to structure the
communication in this market. The microsite will be worked according to the market and will
provide information regarding:
 The Douro Region: the territory, its characteristics;
 Promotion of Protected Designations of Origin;
 Styles and forms of aging of Port Wine;
 Characterization of different types of Port Wine;
 Service temperatures;
 Consumer Moments of Port suited to this market.
Social Networks: Social networks are changing the life habits and global communication
form. Millions of users around the world are multiplying daily. This is one of the biggest
phenomena of the last decades, with consequences for marketing and communications
activities. Research in this area indicates that social networks have been an exponential
growth in recent years and the trend is for it to grow and intensify their use.
254
The presence of the Port and Douro Wines in social networks is, therefore, fundamental, in a
strategic market for Port and Douro wines. Accessibility, proximity, daily presence on the
consumers lives, and possibility to work on viral marketing are the objectives.
Press trips: Due the importance of this market for Port and Douro wines, it is considered
relevant to invite 3 wine journalists per year or reporters writing about food or life-style
issues. This will allow them to get better acquainted with the region and some European highquality products. They will also understand more fully the unique characteristics of these
wines, whilst forming a bond with these and their region of origin.
2.7 Cannes Festival Film |Duration: 10 days
The Cannes Film Festival is the most important film event in the world, with the presence of
more than 4,000 journalists from over 30,000 accredited, representing the full spectrum of the
film industry.
This festival reflects the dual nature of cinema, the industrial and artistic essence, promoting
the appearance of new artists and being an important stage for the meeting of the most
representative professionals from this industry.
The Port and Douro Wine has the mission to make Public Relations sessions to these
professional targets, that are not wine market players, but they are prescribers and opinion
leaders in their communities. On the other hand they will act as advisers and pass the word
about their good experiences with Port wines and quality wines produced in the European
Union.
Facts and Numbers:
 More than 30.000 people attend the Festival;
 Created in 1946, it takes place in Cannes in May;
 Presence of more than 4.300 journalists, of who over 1.700 are French and more than
2.500 journalists representing a total of 84 countries;
 Official Sponsors: once it is one of the most know and recognized Film Festival in the
world, it is supported by companies with international representation: Air France,
Europcar, HP, L’Oreal, LG e Renault, among many others.
A wine tasting in a Festival like this, allows us to achieve a form of communication and brand
exposure different from the usual. If we make known our wines to a market with a difficult
access, we are communicating the product in two ways, since, in today's society, beliefs and
tastes of media figures are increasingly taken into account by the ordinary consumer, and
even influence their intention to purchase or consumption of a particular product.
On the other hand, these festivals offer us the opportunity to communicate our wines in
several countries at once.
We would like an action for journalists and opinion leaders, in a very specific and limited
environment, in which we can communicate the unique characteristics of our wines with more
detailed information, and a more interactive and personal way, creating a connection with a
market segment difficult to access.
In addition to this market segment, we also consider the ordinary consumer that as we see in
the statistics, is a considerable presence in this type of event.
In parallel, we could not overlook an audience also crucial for Port wines - French
Sommeliers. We will contribute to greater knowledge and awareness about the European
quality products and, in particular, the Port Wines, so that they can apply the knowledge
gained in their professional lives.
Our Presence
How? It is important to achieve a partnership with a high quality space, exchange of
information and contacts. It should be considered a place for artists, journalists, filmmakers
and opinion leaders to meet.
Ways:
255
 Daily Tastings to artists, journalists, filmmakers and opinion leaders;
 We will use the own bar of the space of partnership; we will have a space for
presentation of Port Wines. Cocktails or Simple Ports will be prepared by a bartender
and promoted by specialized host formed for this purpose, every day of the Festival;
 Tastings for French Sommeliers;
 Tastings for actors and Portuguese filmmakers;
 Gifts of Port during high impact moments.
The presence at the Cannes Film Festival will ensure:
 Disclosure / internationalization of Port Wines, produced in Demarked Region of the
European Union;
 Allow several contacts with a diverse audience;
 Enhance contacts with several journalists, actors, opinion leaders, sommeliers, etc.
2.8 Shipping and Insurance Costs
The costs refer to the transport of wines and other items to be used for all the activities in this
market.
3. SPAIN
Spain has a similar profile in this project to that of France, with a strong emphasis on
professional publics, connected or not to the wine trade. Due to its strong gastronomic traits
and the increase of the excellence segment of the tourist trade, the emphasis is on the hotel
schools and on Tourism. This gives the IVDP the opportunity to press ahead with the message
of the excellence of European DO areas.
3.1 Promotional Material
The objective is to sustain and strengthening all the marketing events previewed in the
program, maximizing their promotional effect and creating on the target public a solid and
positive image of the promoted products. All the planned actions in this market will be
supported by information materials. This will have a transversal character to all markets
proposed in this program.
3.2 Seminars for Hospitality and Tourism schools |Duration: 4 weeks
There is still much work to do in this market as for the education of new and young
professionals in the field of hospitality, culinary and catering service in the field of knowledge
about the Port and Douro wines, and the added value given by the European designations of
origin and geographical indications. This action centred on schools and on future
professionals who will soon enter the labour market, is essential to reach this challenge. The
goal is to reach 15 schools and professionals throughout Spain (Madrid, Barcelona,
Compostela, Bilbau, Málaga, Mayorca, San Sebastian, e Gijón).
Given that, these schools are the future staff skilled in the sector of hospitality and tourism, it
is imperative to begin to "educate" them and make them aware of the issue of the wines that
are produced in the demarcated regions of the European Union with quality by their own
required control.
These educational activities aim to raise awareness and clarify the current students of the
Hospitality and Tourism Schools for the known and recognized quality of our wines. These
are undoubtedly the future chefs and hoteliers, whose role will be important for further
dissemination and appreciation of terroir and quality, increasing wine consumption in the EU.
3.3 Training for Professionals – Sommelier Associations |Duration: 3 weeks
With the holding of regular seminars, this project aims to give the professionals of this area
more expertise and greater knowledge, thus greater understanding, of Douro and Port wines.
The seminars will be held in Madrid, Barcelona, Bilbao, Palma de Majorca, Santiago de
Compostela, Malaga, The Canary Islands and Valencia.
256
3.4 Program with Michelin Star Restaurants
Another very important vector for the Port and Douro wines are the professionals who are
already in the market, especially chefs and sommeliers. Spain is one of the countries in the
internal market where the restoration and innovation in this sector is more bustling and
creative, which impels a strengthened commitment to raise awareness of these professionals
for consumption, prescription and suggestions of these wines.
This project fits into the perspective of education and information, offering seminars (3) in
top restaurants, aimed at wine professionals (hotels, sommeliers, journalists, etc.) stating truly
the public about the EU standards. The axis Madrid | Barcelona | San Sebastian will have
priority due to the number of Michelin star restaurants.
Therefore we will contribute to greater knowledge and awareness about the recipients of
European quality products and, in particular, the Port and Douro wines, so that they can apply
the knowledge gained in their professional lives. The activities focus on communication of all
aspects that make up the systems of Protected Designation of Origin, its basis and legal
grounds, the law in the European context, its implications, labelling and marketing, as well as
forms of fraud detection and defence European product with D.O and I.G. Will be mostly
technical seminars seeking to provide its participants with tools to identify and protect the
quality wines produced in European trade demarcated regions.
3.5 Internet, Social Networks and Press Trips | Duration: annual
The social networks are changing life habits and the way global communications are
conducted. Millions now use these networks daily and their number is constantly increasing.
This important phenomenon is of utmost relevance in the field of marketing and
communication. Research shows that social networks have risen exponentially in the last
years and that this tendency will continue as well as the increase in usage.
The presence of Port and Douro wines in these networks is seen as fundamental in this
strategic market. Access, proximity, presence in the consumers’ day-to-day and the possibility
to work the viral marketing angle are the objectives.
As in the case of the French market, it is considered important to invite 3 wine journalists per
year or reporters writing about food or life-style issues. This will allow them to get better
acquainted with the region and some European high-quality products. They will also
understand more fully the unique characteristics of these wines, whilst forming a bond with
these and their region of origin.

RESULT OF THE ELIGIBILITY AND QUALITY EXAMINATION
Remarks:
IVPD is currently (partially) running the following programmes:
- Discover the origin (2011-2014): multi-countries programme with FR and IT, target
countries are UK and IRL, budget: 4,300,00 EUR
- Porto e Douro – a excelencia do terroir europeu (2009-2012): the programme ended in
October 2012, taret countries were FR, DE, ES and PT, budget 2,500,000 EUR
This proposal is the continuation of the later, with the same target countries and mainly the
same type of actions (although there are a few new actions added).
This proposal was submitted in Feb. 2012 and was refused. It was then submitted again in
June and December 2013 and refused again but for eligibility reasons.
Now the proposal addresses most of the comments made during the previous evaluations,
describes clearly the strategy to be followed in each target country, sets SMART objectives
and presents a coherent set of well-described actions.
Nevertheless some aspects still need to be clarified, and very little information is provided on
the impact assessment and the final evaluation of the programme is missing.
Programme eligible:
Yes/No
First observations to be communicated to MS:
Proposing organisation and implementing body:
- The Member State is asked to confirm whether the proposing organisation is a public or
private body, in the sense of Article 1(9) of Directive 2004/18/EC (c.f. Article 13(2) of
Regulation 501/2008).
- The implementing body is not selected yet but a precise calendar of the procedure to be
put in place to ensure the signature of the contract on time is required (p. 4).
Previous programme:
- Provide a summary of the previous programme evaluation (chapter 4.6 – p. 7-9). If no
final data are available yet, provide numbers for the first two phases of the programme.
Objectives and themes:
- According to Annex I of Regulation 501/2008, one of the main goals of programme
promoting PDO/PGI wines on the internal market is to inform consumers about
responsible drinking patterns and the risks of alcohol abuse. In the objective section, a
quick reference is made to this theme "Wine in moderation" but it is not mentioned
further in the proposal. Ensure that this message is carried out throughout the
programme.
- Check consistency between the number of citizens to be directly reached by the
programme (above 40.000, p. 16) and the total number of direct contacts in the foreseen
impact (total for actions' contacts equals to 36.090, p. 48-51).
- Clarify the objective to be reached for the Portuguese market. Please include the
targeted numbers in the table accordingly (p. 17).
Actions:
- Calendar: indicate that the action 1.3. Concurso "Gastronomia com Vinho do Porto"
will only take place in year 2; correct numbering of the two last actions as they should
read 4.2 ProWein and 4.3 Masterclass e Prova Aberta (p. 22).
- 1.1, 2.1, 3.1 and 4.1 Material de Merchandising: justify the numbers of each promotion
materials to be produced for each target country (p. 23, 29, 39, and 44).
- 1.2 Grande Prova de Vinho de Porto: spell out the cost for the organisation and
production of this event (107,563.32 EUR); explain if the average cost of 650 EUR per
266
journalist for travel costs corresponds to their travel from their home country to the
event place or to the tour organised in the Douro and Porto Region (p. 27).
- 1.4: spell out the cost for the organisation and production of the "Porto & Douro Wine
Show" (84,975.00 EUR); justify and modify - if necessary - the very big area rented
(1.190m2) for the "Porto & Douro Wine Show" (p. 27).
- 1.6 Oficinas de Aromas e Sabores: delete this action as it is not coherent with the rest of
the programme and will not participate to the set objectives (p. 26); adjust the budget
accordingly.
- 2.3 Seminários Regionais para profissionais do sector: confirm that 4 seminars will be
organised each year (p. 30) and modify description in budget table accordingly (p. 37).
- 2.4 Seminários em Escolas de hotelaria: specify the duration of each seminar (p. 31).
- 2.5 Concurso "Master of Port": specify how many of these will be organised within this
programme (p. 32), according to the budget table, one will be organised during year 1
and 2 while during year 3, only the first step of the competition will be organised.
- 2.6 and 3.5 Websites: clarify what content will be added to the existing French (p. 33)
and Spanish (p. 41) versions of the website as well as justify and spell-out their
respective cost since these versions do already exist (p. 38 and 43).
- 3.2 Seminários em Escolas de Hotelaria: specify the duration of each seminar and
indicate that 15 schools per year will be targeted in order to be consistent with the
budget table (p. 39).
- 3.2 and 3.3: justify the numbers of "custo de cada deslocacao" used in the budget table,
respectively 7 for 15 training actions and 5 for 8 training actions (p. 42).
- 3.4 Programa com Restaurantes com estrelas Michelin: this action is indicated to last
one week and to include 3 seminars (p. 40) while in the budget table (p. 42) it seems
that 3 seminars will be organised per year for a duration of two days each; check
consistency and clarify the total number of seminars and the duration for each of them
(p. 40 and 42).
- 4.2 Feira ProWein: revise the area rented (300m2 instead of 320m2) in order to be
consistent with the budget table (p. 45).
- 4.3 Materclass e Prova Aberta. Explain why this action will be carried out in the same
cities in year 1 and 3 (p. 45).
Impact and final evaluation:
- Indicators of realisation and of results are specified in order to measure the impact of
the programme during its implementation. But there is no information on how the final
evaluation will be carried out. Provide detailed information on this final evaluation (p.
48-51) and modify the budget accordingly (see below).
Budget:
- 3% for the compulsory final evaluation of the programme should be added to the budget
(p. 54).
- Financing plan: numbers in the total column are wrong due to the use of an incorrect
formula. Modify the financing plan to have the correct totals as indicated in the detailed
budget table (p. 55).
European dimension:
- It would be in favour of the European dimension of the programme if the used
extension of the various digital carriers would be ".eu". Therefore the European
Commission suggests the use of this extension for the programme.

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
Objective(s) :
1. Informing about the meaning of the controlled and safe origin of quality poultry meat will
strengthen the public confidence in quality poultry meat of EU origin. The high EU
standards applied by producers in all Member States ensure qualitative, safe and traceable
poultry meat irrespective of the country of origin.
2. Informing about the quality schemes for products and foodstuffs with special qualities due
to higher quality, geographical origin, and traditional and environmental-friendly
production, which is defined by the European Union, will help consumers to recognise
products of higher quality.
3. The promotion and information activities will increase the knowledge about the
importance of including EU quality poultry meat in human nutrition in order to live a
qualitative life, as the poultry meat is nutritious, tasteful, price available and easy to
prepare.
4. As a result of the information and promotion campaign of poultry meat the consumption
of EU poultry meat in the target markets will increase during the implementation of three
270
years campaign, namely: in BIH for 6 %, in Serbia for 5 %, in FYR Macedonia for 4 %, in
the Republic of Kosovo for 4 %, and in Montenegro for 4 %.
On the basis of a previous programme carried out in 2007-2010, the confidence in EU poultry
meat measured in 2010 increased by 33% in Serbia, 26 % in Bosnia and Herzegovina, 7% in
the FYR of Macedonia; according to the statistical data on poultry meat sale in target
countries, there still is a big potential for increasing the consumption.
Strategy :
The campaign target markets close to the European Union, with a culmination of
opportunities for the increase of demand and consumption of poultry meat. As such these
targets present a third market that is practically the closest to and the most logically connected
with the EU. The campaign aims at creating opportunities which will allow consumers to pay
more and more attention to the EU quality schemes and the quality, safety and traceability
systems that ensure the deserved reputation of the EU production. At a time of economic
crisis many people often resort to cheaper solutions and products and it is thus of great
importance for them to be warned that buying cheaper products, mainly those from
underground markets, are not without risks.
This campaign is a continuation of the completed project “Quality, Safety, and Traceability –
Poultry meat of EU origin” (contract number: 328-12-9/2006/17), but will be started with a
completely new visual image, the goal being to line the campaign with fresh communicational
trends that will have a maximum effect on target population.
The backbone of actions will be a direct contact with consumers and other target public, i.e.
“below-the-line” communication action. The public will be addressed on the spot directly,
which is the easiest and the most effective and memorisable way to present the topics and the
questions that need to be addressed when purchasing poultry meat and products thereof.
Organising workshops and inviting representatives of B2B will help to communicate with the
B2B target public about the main project messages in an attractive yet technical-manner, and
thus address them more actively. The goal is to influence the operation of the communication
object and not just to attract attention by a good use of advantages offered by social
networking, an excellent channel for reaching general public, and a price-effective and lowcost manner of communicating and informing. Other forms of informing will not be
neglected.
Adapting all communication tools envisaged by this campaign to the characteristics of
particular target groups will bring bigger effectiveness of an action and bigger influence on a
particular target group member. Active cooperation with professionals in meat-processing
industry, nutritionists and health professionals will give greater weight and credibility to our
activities.
The programme will continue with the positive communication and messages as it will not
draw the attention to the deficiencies of the domestic and non-EU poultry industry and poultry
meat, but rather to the advantages and the importance of the origin of poultry meat. Planned
activities will strengthen consumer and other target group awareness and influence their
behaviour so as to create opportunities for the EU poultry meat sector.
Target group(s) :
1. Consumers and their associations
2. Persons responsible for household purchases
3. Institutions (restaurants, hospitals, schools, etc.)
4. Distributors and their associations
271
5. Press and opinion leaders
Themes :
1. The campaign messages need to become the primary association when a consumer
decides to buy poultry meat. At the time of economic crisis and low buying power in
various countries it is very important to direct the consumers’ attention to avoid cheap
products that do not meet the quality and safety standards defined by the European poultry
meat processors with the vertical traceability system.
2. The average consumption of poultry meat takes the second place these days but the share
of poultry meat is increasingly growing according to forecasts. In comparison with other
sorts of meat, poultry meat is already low-cost competitive whereby the qualitative
poultry meat of EU origin ensures the highest standards of food safety due to special
quality schemes, labelling and traceability Ensuring the price and the quality is the
effective way to solve the price vs. quality dilemma of a consumer.
3. Institutions in targeted countries must understand the responsibility towards their pupils,
patients and other consumers of the food provided by those institutions. Introducing them
the European quality production processes and vertical traceability system can assure
them that the poultry meat they will provide will be of high quality, safety and will be a
good basis for their healthy life.
4. The development of markets and discussions over accession to EU will increase the
awareness of consumers in all target markets. It is therefore expected that the quality and
the safety of products, nowadays often forgotten, will be more and more important for the
consumers. Together with this larger awareness is the increase of consumers’ expectation
that the products shelved include safe products of the highest quality too. Distributors,
their associations and decision-making persons in B2B and Horeca sector have to be
aware of the risk when a product does not meet the traceability and the quality standards.
They have an objective responsibility in their relation to consumers, by their strong
influence on the supply.
5. The growth of poultry meat demand and consumption – all target countries have to start
evolving their production and processing industry meat closer to the EU standards,
otherwise their domestic producers will experience a great shock at the accession. Their
consumers are already looking for meat products of higher standards, still they prefer to
buy cheaper and economically advantageous, yet often unsuitable meat.
Aspects covered:
quality
safety of food
specific production methods

272
Messages to be conveyed:
1. The consumer has a right to demand from his meat provider that the poultry meat is
produced according to quality production processes, vertical traceability system and other
high hygiene standards.
2. Quality poultry meat is an excellent choice for nutrition of all family members, for it
contributes to safe and balanced diet and to diversity of daily menus in a simple and
affordable manner.
3. Catering institutions hold the responsibility for the food they provide. Because some of
the institutions provide food to the more vulnerable part of society (babies, children,
patients, etc.) they have to be even more careful that the poultry meat they offer follows
quality processes, vertical traceability system and other high hygiene standards.
4. Consumers want the most for their money and distributors have to recognise their need for
poultry meat produced with quality processes and vertical traceability system. The quality
poultry meat from the EU strictly follows these high standards.
5. EU production standards assure poultry meat from EU is produced according to quality
processes, vertical traceability system and other high hygiene standards.
Actions, including their scope/volume and a provisional timetable:
1. WEB COMMUNICATION
On-line communications:
On-line communication will combine more elements (a new Web Portal, Twitter, Facebook,
You Tube, QR code and Newsletter), which will be active during the entire 36 months of the
project. These elements will be intertwined and supplemented and will connect as well other
project activities. This measure will serve as one of the measuring tools: number of visits of
the Web portal, Facebook, Twitter, number of You Tube videos seen and all other responses.
Web portal
Web portal will be launched in all five target countries at the beginning of the information and
promotion programme and maintained and updated with new topics during the entire project.
The web portal will be used mainly for presenting information and promotion of quality
poultry meat and products thereof and will serve as a linking tool for the complete project as
other activities and information regarding this programme will be presented on-line.
 It will include basic information and facts on poultry meat and introduction to EU
standards
 The web portal will also offer recipes and the public will be invited to send proven or
innovative recipes with poultry meat. Thus it is to become an interactive place for
exchanging information.
 The web portal will be the most recognisable place for launching information about
safety of consumers, the EU quality schemes, and quality, safety and traceability of
meat of EU origin.
Newsletter
Monthly web news – “newsletter” informing system - the public will be informed about
novelties and top themes on poultry meat on a monthly basis, given some advices about the
selection of food and present various recipes. Some key dates of issuing newsletters are the
following: the Global Family Day (January 1st), the World Consumer Rights Day (March
15th), the World Health Day (April 7th), the International Family Day (May 15th), and the
World Food Day (October 16th). Taking into account these dates, themes like the suitability of
poultry meat in comparison with other food will also be addressed.
273
Twitter and Facebook
An account will be opened on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, which will also spread the
issues to a wider public through these social networks that are an important source of
information and influence as well public opinion. Twitter and Facebook will be also
integrated via the campaign’s website. They will strengthen the communication with their
users and allow thus valuable return information.
QR code
The project official web site will be accessible via mobile phones as well. QR code will be
included in brochures and all other visual elements, enabling an easy access to the web site
via mobile phone. QR code will be included in all promotional elements.
You Tube
You Tube profile will be used for all project video content, such as reports from events and
other interesting shots. The broadening of visual messages will thus be optimised.

2. PRINTED MATERIAL – Informative and promotion brochure
An informative and promotion brochure will be the only printed informational material of the
campaign. Due to its colourful form and a direct introduction to customers, the brochure will
enable a relatively in-depth presentation of the messages. It will be distributed mostly in
promotional tastings as an informative and promotional material, with all basic information. It
is also intended for the participants in workshops and other events. With its colourful and
popular form and attractive photographs it will catch reader’s attention and will be
understandable for the widest target public. It will find its place in private recipes collections,
due to its practical information and usable recipes for everyday cookery. Therefore, its
practical and informative value will cover a longer period. However it will also be technically
informative enough to present the project topics to the widest public in a credible manner.
Dimension: size A5, coloured-printed 4/4, 32 pages.

3. TASTINGS AND PROMOTIONS IN SHOPPING CENTRES
Tastings and promotions focused on the advantages of the qualitative poultry meat of EU
origin will be organised in shopping centres in all target countries, establishing a direct
communication with consumers on the spot and influencing their decisions about purchasing.
Various themes will be presented on the spot, namely: the EU quality schemes, advantages of
the quality, safety and traceability system, advantages of quality poultry meat, the correct
preparation of poultry meat and other significant themes which each and every consumer
should be aware of. This action will contribute to:
 acquiring and strengthening the consumers’ confidence in quality and safety of EU
poultry meat
 wider information about the advantages of including poultry meat in our nutrition and
on safe consumption of food,
 direct influence on buying decisions and nutrition habits of consumers.
An attractive stand will be organised with well-known project logo, hostesses and a cook
dressed in clothing with project logo and suitable emblems. During presentation, poultry meat
will be prepared on the spot. Culinary part of this action will be adapted to the local
particularities and will present, with its sensual irritation, an important part for encouraging
tastings on the spot. Informers will be properly educated in order to present information in
line with the campaign. They will distribute informative brochures and promotional bags and,
at the same time, invite visitors to tastings and to check the campaign’s web portals with their
recipes, questions or remarks. Costs of promotional bags are included in these costs. Tastings
will be organised when the number of visitors in shopping centres is the highest, as well as in
places with high frequency. It is our aim accordingly to get 1000 visitors per tasting. Two
tastings at the same time, but on different locations are envisaged in countries with more
275
tastings planned (Serbia and BIH), in other countries (FYR Macedonia, Montenegro,
Kosovo), one tasting on one location will be organised in a day.

5. COOKING COMPETITION IN PREPARING MEALS FROM POULTRY MEAT
A public cooking competition in preparing meals from poultry meat will be carried out in order to draw attention to the content presented through
the project. Such a contest will take advantage of the popularity of cooking competitions and shows. The campaign’s messages will thus be
launched through various additional channels in an attractive manner. This action will contribute to the popularisation of poultry meat in general
and will, throughout the cooking competition, communicate these messages to some parts of the wider public normally hard to reach. This
competition is an excellent manner to encourage the public to consider and to test possibilities offered by poultry meat, and it gives an
opportunity to form the topics with insufficient alluringness in the start in a very attractive action. The competition will be performed in two
categories, with three team members: teams of general public will compete in a category “Amateur cooks”, and teams of young cooks will
compete in a category “Young cooks”. At the beginning of each event, there will be an hour-long introductory part – an educational part with
short lectures on the advantages and the meaning of qualitative poultry meat, EU quality schemes, and the importance of safety and traceability.
This action composed of several events will be divided in two major parts: elimination and the finals. We plan to carry out three elimination
events in three different cities in Serbia and BIH, and two in two cities in Montenegro, Macedonia and Kosovo. Each action will last four months
279
per county. It will also increase the number of website visitors as the entire entry will be via the Internet, and the rules and competition news will
be published on the website. The competition will be carried out when no other activities take place.

8. PROMOTIONAL EXPERT ARTICLES
Publishing articles in magazines will help reach the target consumers and other persons involved in housekeeping and purchases, as well as
professionals in purchasing and/or food preparation. In order to communicate the campaign’s messages to target public, the promotional articles
based on technical facts will be published in magazines. Articles will present technical contents in a popular way. They will be published in
various printed media in each target country and will enable a detailed and accurate description of separate key topics connected with qualitative
poultry meat. We plan to publish 8 various whole-page articles in 5 different commercial and technical media, giving thus an opportunity to
address the widest segment of target public. The stress will certainly be on magazines and supplements that deal with a qualitative, healthy and
active life. In a separate media, articles will be published as a series of 8 articles in two or three-month, dependent on the media periodicity.
Publishing expert articles in the selected printed media will:
- gain and (furthermore) strengthen the consumers’ trust in the quality and safety of poultry meat of EU origin;
283
- gain a wider information of people about the advantages of including poultry meat in their nutrition and about its safe consumption;
- influence the consumers’ purchasing decisions and nutrition habits;
- create new visits of the project’s website and other digital communication tools.

9. ON-LINE ADVERTISING
The backbone of information-promotional on-line actions of this campaign is pointed at “below-the-line” communication activities, which
directly address the consumer. However, for an optimal efficiency, “above-the-line” activities need to be realised to a certain extent as well,
dispersing the campaign’s messages through other indirect channels. Advertising through various websites will help gain bigger perception of
campaign’s messages and create visits of the campaign’s website. Indirectly, activities will be created, connected to other campaign’s actions.
Advertising will be dynamic, banner shaped, immediately drawing the visitors attention. Banners will be launched in the most visited websites of
a particular countrydealing with the topics related to purchasing, food preparation and health. In each country banners will be launched in three
various websites for one month per each year. Advertising on the Internet will be launched during those months when other activities, applied for
addressing the public, will not take place, whereby the authenticity of the campaign’s messages will be ensured all the time.

10. PRESS CONFERENCE
Press conferences will take place in each country as an introduction for the 3-year informational and promotional campaign. The goal is to
present the project and to excite the interest for the planned activities. Press conferences will be organised in the capital cities of target countries.
The list of invited persons will include representative of general and specialised media in the field of nutrition, healthy life and cooking, and
other interested public such as consumer associations, companies involved in poultry meat and products thereof, distribution and catering
organisations and traders, giving the press conference a wider extent. They will be attended by informers who will present the content and by
representatives of target countries and the EU. A nutritionist and a representative of a target field will be invited, as well as a representative of an
EU poultry industry, of a veterinary organisation and of the proposing organisation, who will present the campaign’s extent. Two of the
informers on the press conference will thus come from the EU. Press conferences will be launched during the first months of the campaign.
Target number of participants is 100 people in total in Serbia, 80 in BIH, 70 in FYR Macedonia and 50 in Montenegro and Kosovo each.

11. STUDY VISITS FOR MEDIA IN THE EU
Expert and study visits of editors and journalists in plants for production and processing of poultry meat is one of the communication tools which
help to form a long-term alliance between EU meat processing industry and consumers in third countries. We plan to organise an expert and
study visit for the key editors and journalist covering trade, economy, agriculture and nutrition. Information checked on the spot is more effective
and more impressive than information written as a press release. Journalist will be acquainted with processing industry and the quality, safety and
traceability system in practice. They will meet the representatives of the Slovene Commercial Branch Association of Meat Industry and will take
part in an accompanying programme. The expert and study visit for media from all target countries to Slovenia will last 3 days (two nights) with
30 journalists from Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, 20 journalists from FYR Macedonia, Montenegro and Kosovo. The foreseen price
includes costs of transport, overnights stays, food and promotional material and gifts.

European dimension
- the target public will achieve a higher visibility and understanding of EU quality systems,
which provides a higher quality of products bearing the symbols of these schemes
- thus, the image of EU products and of EU agriculture, and consequently of the EU
Common Agricultural Policy, will be promoted among likely future candidates.
- increased knowledge of EU signs and products will lead to an increased confidence in EU
products. In the peculiar case of poultry meat, where consumption is increasing, it will lead
to more, and more selective, imports, for the same and for other new consumers.
The envisaged effects and the evaluation methods:
Ensuring correct information on the EU quality schemes, national quality schemes, and the
control system, which all together ensure a strict control from breeding to sale, as defined by
regulations, will return and strengthen the consumers’ confidence into EU quality poultry
meat that has been deeply shaken by avian influenza. Target groups will gain a higher level of
awareness of high EU standards applied by producers and which ensure qualitative, safe and
traceable poultry meat irrespective of the country of origin. The increased conscience of the
importance of including quality poultry meat within human nutrition for the quality of life
will be perceived at the same time. The interest in purchasing EU poultry meat will increase
due to the comparative advantages of EU products. This will result in an increase of the EU
exports towards target countries. The result of the information and promotion campaign will
be measured in the increased consumption of poultry meat in target countries within the
campaign implementation, namely in Bosnia and Herzegovina for 6 %, in Serbia for 5 %, in
FYR Macedonia for 4 %, in Montenegro for 4 %, and in the Republic of Kosovo for 4
%.Official statistics on consumption and sale of poultry meat in a particular country will serve
as a basis for the measurement of these changes.
The concrete anticipated effects of the information and promotion campaign of poultry meat
of EU origin in target markets and the ways of measurement are presented in continuation
within each particular action. Results will be measured equally for all target countries.
Measurement and recording of the statistics will be carried out by a selected independent
external body. Results will be measured by the number of website visits, on the spot
participants, contacts made, and media publications. A market analysis with a 3-year
periodical research will also be carried out and used to apparise the campaign results, the
official statistics being published rather late.

RESULTAT OF THE ELIGIBILITY AND QUALITY EXAMINATION
Remarks :
Programme eligible :
yes/no
First observations to be communicated to MS :
- confirm that the executive body is not a public entity
- Confirmation has been given and the statute of the applicant precised
- meat for tasting should be furnished at production costs; certify that this will be the case
Such a certification has been given.
- what is the size of the stands for tastings and promotions ?
The size is précised; it has been determined In order to also allow promotional
tastings and other accompanying information-promotion and promotional measures
- what is precisely meant by "EU expert" for the workshops: experts coming from EU
member countries (if so, how are they selected) or from the EU institutions ?
They are specialists form EU countries competent on meat quality matters; they can
come from ministries or private professional organisations. Commission experts,
especially on quality matters, are also welcome
- there should be a table per year for measurement of results, quantitative objectives
measured by the survey should also be set.
Such a survey will be included in the regular market analysis foreseen every year
during project implementation. It will measure in each country the level of knowledge
of EU poultry meat, its advantages and EU standards for guaranteeing that UE meat
is of high quality, safe and healthy. The starting point will be the study carried out in
year 1; another one is foreseen in year 2 and a final one immediately after the end of
the information-provision and promotional activities, with the same questions as the
original survey. The aim is to increase by 6% in year 1 and by 4% each of the two
following years the proportion of consumers aware of the advantages of EU quality
poultry meat yearly, and by the same percentage the proportion of consumers aware
of the high standards of quality and safety for poultry meat of EU origin, as well as
the confidence in EU quality poultry meat, the proportion of consumers aware of the
quality schemes used to mark higher-quality products and that of consumers who
include poultry meat in their diet at least twice a week.
In addition, digital communication (websites, Facebook profile, etc.) will also be used
to monitor the changes in the awareness of consumers in target markets, and people
attending tasting events will be asked to fill in the survey, with questions on
290
knowledge of the advantages of poultry meat in general and EU quality poultry meat
in particular.
- - a .eu site should be preferred
The recommendation will be followed and a website www.perutnina.eu will be
created.

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME :
Objective(s) :
The objectives of this programme are to:
• continue to grow sales of organic foods and farming, aiming to return the market to growth by
2017, and potentially grow the market by between 1‐3%;
 increase understanding of the benefits of organic food and drink;
 improve consumer and media attitudes to organic.
Strategy:
The strategy is to increase demand for organic food and drink by clearly promoting the benefits of
organic production to those consumers who are most likely to buy more organic.
 The strategy will involve:
 Evolving and optimising the advertising ensuring that it will still grab people’s attention.
 Having a light hearted tone of voice, which is humorous and contemporary.
 Ensuring that the language explaining the benefits of organic is simple yet compelling.
293
 Maintaining a strong focus on the audience with the most likelihood to spend more on organic the “Heavyweights” and “Occasionals.”
 Keeping a strong central message that will help increase sales.
 Working to create stronger advocates from the 65,000 plus Facebook following.
 Having a “push” and “pull” strategy – the push coming from the advertising and the pull
coming from on‐ line work.
 Addressing the price barrier and clearly communicating the value of organic food.
The campaign will focus around five core areas:
 Advertising: the big “shout” that will raise awareness and make people stop and think about
organic, prompting them to buy more of it.
 Digital & social media: where people come to find out more, and then interact and become
part of the campaign and help spread the word.
 Media and PR work: to create the stories in the media that encourages people to re‐ think
organic in positive ways through independent comment and endorsements from journalists.
 Retailer activation: raising awareness of organic in-store so shoppers are reminded about its
benefits as they shop
 Measurement and evaluation: to ensure the campaign is achieving results and to continually
check back on progress so plans can be amended as necessary.
The strategic pathway for the campaign started with the previous campaign creating a “reason
to believe” in organic. There was a great deal of information to get across in a simple way and
the benefits of organic were not yet understood.
The next step is to give consumers a “reason to buy” organic so the strategy will be more
confident and overt about this in the next campaign. The strategy will include talking about the
difference in price of organic food and drink, but will do this with confidence showing people
that organic may sometimes cost more, but it is worth it.
There will also be a strong call to action, a similar tone of voice that has been proven to work
very effectively in the first campaign.
Target group(s):
The consumers: Regulars (or Heavyweight) buyers who buy organic products more than 27 times
per year and Occasional purchasers who buy organic between 7 and 26 times per year.
Themes:
The campaign's main themes are to increase understanding of the benefits of organic food and
drink and organic production methods.
Main themes:
 Organic productions systems have very high animal welfare standards.
 Organic is good for the environment and biodiversity and is more natural.
 Organic food contains lower pesticide residues and organic farming uses fewer pesticides.
 The campaign will stress the value of organic food and drink –it sometimes may cost more, but
it is worth it.
 The use of the word "organic" is protected by law so organic food has undergone stringent
checks.
The campaign will also increase understanding of the EU standards contained in Council
Regulation (EC) 834/2007 and the new EU logo for organic food, building recognition
following its introduction in 2010.

Messages to be conveyed:
The campaign name is "Organic. Naturally different" and the proposition is built around "If your
food could talk, what would it tell you?" The campaign aims at encouraging consumers to think
beyond what the food looks like to consider the processes it went through to get it on their plate.
The key messages to be communicated in the campaign are:
 Organic is natural and great tasting food.
 Organic has lower pesticide residues.
 Animals on organic farms are raised to high animal welfare standards.
Having seen the campaign, consumers should think more about the food they are buying, they
should feel good about choosing organic and they will have powerful reasons to buy organic.
Each version of the advertisement will:
 Be generic – no brand names will be mentioned.
 Explain a key benefit of organic food and farming.
 Refer to EU funding.
 Highlight the new EU organic logo to improve consumer and trade recognition.
 Include a call to action to a campaign Facebook page enabling respondents to learn more about
organic foods, to view our latest recipes and news.
The proposing organisation is evolving stronger messages, based on those developed for the first
programme as they are proven to work. Leapfrog research shows the messages are well
understood by shoppers, with 80% of those surveyed saying they were likely to buy more organic,
having seen the adverts.
Actions, including their scope/volume and a provisional timetable:
Action 1 – Creative
Objective: That the campaign creates awareness and “talkability” and stimulates people to reappraise organic, go online to find out more and buy more organic food and drink.
How will the objective be achieved?
 Having the existing awareness for the adverts in the previous programme means the
campaign should capitalise on it and use the same creative concept again:
 The campaign will continue to be good value for money. Evolving the current campaign will
ensure we build on the momentum from the previous campaign and do not waste time and
money developing new approaches from scratch.
 Consistency works. Organic now has an effective, award winning advertising “look and feel”
and it makes sense to build on this.
 The advertising campaign achieved over twice the usual awareness levels for the industry,
achieving 39% awareness among London Underground users (average 17%).
 The importance of clarity. The same research shows 84% of consumers find our advertising
“clear and easy to understand” so we will continue with the same concept.
 The advertising is not “worn out.” The advertising has not yet been seen by enough people to
require a total change.
Based on this foundation the proposing organisation will develop a new campaign by:
295
 Making the “reason to believe” section of the advert (the text at the bottom) more prominent so
that it will be easier for consumers to remember the message
 Addressing the perception that organic costs more, and is the main barrier to buying more
organic. The adverts will address this head on and show people that organic is worth it.
 Encouraging people to “buy something organic today” or using similar words as a call to
action.
Expected impact:
The Monitoring and Evaluation Campaign tracking2 will show:
 Awareness of campaign in London, where advertising appears: 40%
 Likelihood of campaign encouraging more people to buy organic: 75%


o London Underground advertising captures people
when they have “dwell time” waiting on the platform
for trains. In this way the adverts are unavoidable
o 87% of commuters welcome advertising on the tube
and they have the desire to engage with it as it fills
their “dead” time (source: CBS)
o Consumers spend an average of 3 minutes on the
platform engaging with cross track ads (source: CBS)
Using London Underground allows us to showcase
different creative executions and product benefits
Reach audience in relevant environments, allowing us
to reach people when food and wellbeing is front of
mind
Opportunity to promote the organic message to people
with an established interest in food and related topics,
with minimal wastage
Precise keyword targeting provides message at key
discovery moments
“Network” buys allow cost efficient message placement
Advertising formats allow us to demonstrate the
numerous benefits of organic as well as inviting
interactivity to gain message visibility
 Cultivates organic advocates and creates momentum
around key campaign messages
 Allows two-way conversations and interactivity with
audiences
 Presence in owned media (our own website and
Facebook pages) and earned media (other people’s
social media pages) spreads the message further
without any extra media budget
o Credibility of messaging is extended when derived
from peer to peer recommendation or advocacy
o 87% of people trust peer recommendation over
conventional advertising (source: Jupiter research)
 Taps into established communities of interested
audiences
 Encourages “talkability” around key issues and product
benefits
o Encouraging people to both think about the key
benefits of organic and communicate these to a wider
audience, essentially making our audience spread the
organic word on our behalf
 Placement affords video content for greater message
depth and context, plus higher levels of interactivity
 Premium page post link ads on Facebook can drive
direct to point of purchase at key retailers, encouraging
greater organic sales
 Provides national presence
 Remind shoppers about key benefits of organic while
they shop
297
Paid Search
Google
 Encourage shoppers to switch to organic at the point of
purchase
 Targeting capabilities allows us to reach those with an
established interest in organic products, or those who
would be most receptive to organic messaging –
allowing our budget to work harder for us
 Provides national presence
 Introduces paid search, to capture people who have
demonstrated an interest in organic
 Drives awareness of Organic UK’s website
o Pushing consumers to “owned “ media space, allows
us to explain the benefits of organic with more detail
than an advert can allow
o Driving audience to the “owned” media space,
facilitates ongoing communications with the
consumer, beyond the life of the paid for media
campaign
 Provides national presence
The activity will be phased to maximise people’s spending levels and to reach people at most
receptive times of year.3 The majority of the media activity will fall in to two key bursts:
Phase one: End of January/beginning of February
There are two benefits to starting in January. First, the adverts will be seen by people in the
New Year when they are thinking of changing their eating habits. Second, the timing means
that the campaign will not have lost momentum since it ended in September.
Phase two: “Organic September”: The month of September is designated as the month-long
promotion of organic food and drink in the UK. It therefore makes sense to amplify the
activity around this time when organic has a high profile.

Action 3 - Digital marketing and social media
Objective: For digital to be the hub for the campaign – where consumers go to find out more
and to share our campaign messages and talk about organic to their friends achieving “peer to
peer advocacy” (helping spread the benefits of organic themselves).
How will the objective be achieved?
In summary the campaign will refresh the www.organicukfood.co.uk website and Facebook
page, create excitement, visibility and create a new “app” for Facebook each year to ensure
continued engagement with our “fans.” The work on this action will include:
 Digital activity that encourages our community on Facebook to become true organic
advocates, encouraging sharing of digital assets including recipes, hints and tips on
shopping and the benefits of organic with their friends and family to help amplify the
advertising campaign and PR activity.
 Digital challenges promoted via the Facebook wall and hosted in a Facebook application
will include a “Cook Organic Challenge!” where the Facebook community use five organic
ingredients to come up with their own take on a classic British dish. This will be a seasonal
activity supported by hints and tips from our celebrity chef partner.
 Organic meal plans will be created with our celebrity chef and blogger ambassadors to
demonstrate the good value and ease with which it’s possible to shop and cook organic.
These will have a seasonal and provenance focus and will also encourage our community to
share their own adaptation of the plans with us on Facebook and via their blogs.
 Shareable assets will be created following the theme of the advertising and will include tips
on buying organic, simple recipes and campaign messaging. They will also celebrate
occasions such as Christmas.
 To help our audience learn more about what organic means and how committed and expert
our campaign supporters are, we will run a series of pledgor profiles on Facebook for
example with video interviews and question and answer sessions.
 Video content will include master classes with our celebrity and blogger ambassadors who
will share their personal tips and advice on cooking organic, for example cooking for
special occasions such as Easter, but also other social occasions including BBQs and
preparing the perfect picnic.
 Competitions are a proven route to amplifying the campaign and engaging with our
audience. We will run regular competition activity on both the Facebook wall and via a
dedicated competitions app with a range of prize options and values to encourage as many
of our fans to take part as possible.
299
 The focus for Twitter will be to continue to engage with food bloggers and the wider
mainstream media as well as pledgors and trade media to amplify news on organic, news on
wider food issues and to share the opinions of the campaign.
 Community management for the Facebook account will continue to post daily and
moderate conversation and engagement on the wall. Posts will feature food and related
lifestyle news to promote debate among our community as well as posts to direct fans to
our digital activity on the app(s) and with our celebrity ambassador’s activity for example.
Rationale
Some 85% of all adults in the UK regularly use the internet and this rises to over 90% of
adults in the 25 – 54 age group.5 Over 50% of the UK population is on Facebook.6 The
campaign therefore needs to engage people and capture their interest while they are on line,
and this is why the campaign Facebook page and website are the key information hubs for the
campaign. They are also an extremely cost effective way of reaching our audience.
Impact
Facebook
Facebook is the activity hub for the campaign and a platform for conversation between us and
organic consumers. As we continue to promote Facebook as the home of Organic UK in the
advertising campaign and social media advertising, the number of fans or community will
grow. Carefully targeted Facebook adverts and media spending will help to ensure we are
recruiting the “right” people on to our page. Thus quality over quantity of fans will ensure we
maintain the same level of engagement or “sharing” that we are currently achieving.
The Facebook activity aims to build on the 57,000+ community of committed organic “fans”
we already have with these specific aims:
 To create a positive perception of organic and encourage more people to use organic
in their daily cooking.
 Our target will be 100k likes at the end of the next three years of the campaign.
 Build advocacy amongst the existing community. Our target will be an average 2.5%
“talking about” figure7.
Twitter
When we first launched the organic Twitter account, Twitter was considered to be more of an
“emerging channel”. This has evolved considerably over the past three years and has proven
to be a key channel primarily for targeting and engaging with influencers (such as journalists
and bloggers) as well as consumers. As this trend looks set to continue, Twitter will become
an invaluable PR tool to maintain relationships with these key influencers.
Currently the campaign has over 4,000 followers and our target is to increase that to 8,000 at
the end of this campaign.
Website
As the focus of the organic campaign and consumer behaviour has shifted over to social
media channels, traffic to the website will remain stable, and is still important for more
information about organic as well as organic recipes. By supporting the site with additional
paid search we expect to increase traffic to site during bursts of above the line (ATL)
campaign activity.
The impact of the website is likely to be 1,450 unique visits per month, of which:
 New visitors 75%

Action 4 - PR
Objective: Extend the reach of the advertising and paid for media by developing engaging
stories on the benefits of organic production, food and drink for consumer PR and also have
an effective trade PR programme.
How will the objective be achieved?
CONSUMER
 Celebrity and blogger endorsement and partnerships will continue as both have been
effective in making our voice heard in a crowded media marketplace. These relationships
will also be useful as they amplify the digital part of the campaign, and provide content for
our social media channels too.
 The celebrity will also work with us on a recipe challenge which will show consumers how
easy it is to buy organic and make it stretch over a number of meals, giving great value for
money and dealing with one of the main barriers to purchase organic which is price.
The celebrities below are just examples of who the proposing organisation would consider
working with:
Si King and Dave Myers – The Hairy Bikers: They have several cooking series on
mainstream terrestrial TV, and also cookbooks. The pair are widely viewed as ‘national
treasures’ and are praised for their down-to-earth cooking and love of good food.
Tom Kerridge has a two Michelin starred restaurant and appears regularly on TV
programmes, Saturday Kitchen and the Great British Chef. He is know for his hearty and
wholesome cooking and straight talking approach to food and how we eat.
301
 The campaign will sponsor a major national award that encourages people to cook with
/use/endorse organic ingredients. The Observer Food Awards are held annually and are the
among the most highly regarded and popular awards in the UK, receiving considerable
media attention. There are a number of categories that would suit the organic campaign,
including Best Independent Retailer and Best Ethical Restaurant, so there will be an
opportunity for the campaign to work with the award organisers to tailor the sponsorship to
suit its objectives.
 Celebrate with organic – encouraging more use of organic at more meal occasions using PR
activity to remind people to enjoy organic both as part of their everyday food, but also
when enjoying special mealtimes with family and friends.
 Create vibrant stories around the theme of “you get what you pay for” - using PR stories to
remind people of the importance of understanding the quality and content of their food.
 Target influential consumer and food journalists with news around the value of organic,
work with these stories to shift perceptions of organic from a price point of view and focus
more on animal welfare, the reduced pesticide residues in organic food and drink and
knowing where your food comes from.
 Media will include: Weekend Telegraph – Xanthe Clay, Daily Telegraph – Harry Wallop,
The Guardian – Emine Saner, Word of Mouth Blog – Felicity Cloake,
BBC Radio 4 Farming Today – Melvin Rickarby, Food Programme – Sheila Dillon,
Good Housekeeping – Monaz Dumasia, Tesco Magazine – Jenny McIvor, Metro – Chloe
Scott, Prima – Heather Whinney, Healthy Food Guide – Ellen Wallwork, Great British Food
– Natasha Lovell-Smith, Metro – Kylie Martin, Olive – Janine Ratcliffe, Lavender and
Lovage – Karen Burns Booth, Eat Like a Girl – Niamh Shields.
 One-to-one media briefings will allow the opportunity to work closely with campaign
pledgors and leading journalists to develop feature stories on key aspects of organic as well
as to look at the value of organic over and above any price premium.
TRADE
 As part of the trade activity the proposing organisation will hold briefings with the trade
media once a year. This event will be an opportunity for the key trade titles to talk to the
leading organic category producers about their business and how it’s progressing and to
look at new product development and innovations for example. The objective here is to
develop news stories that will engage the trade media and provide platforms for better
understanding of each key organic category to increase listings in the major multiples and
also to increase business for the independent sector and online.
 Category profiles will be used throughout the year to reinforce the success of organic
products and also to keep the trade media up-to-date with the latest product and category
news.
 The trade PR campaign will work with key industry figure to develop profile and interview
opportunities both with food trade press but also extending this to the business sections of
quality national titles including The Times, The Financial Times and Daily Telegraph, for
example.
Rationale
For consumers, articles in their favourite newspaper or magazine can really engage people
and persuade them to try organic for the first time. For the trade, PR can help us overcome
negative attitudes on organic and encourage retail buyers to stock more organic lines.
PR is therefore an important part of this campaign. It will work hard to shift opinion about
organic with particular focus on the benefits of organic. PR also allows in-depth
communication of some of the more complex areas of interest to consumers. High quality
302
images and well researched written materials will support the efforts of the press office to
develop influential editorial coverage.
Impact
The proposing organisation will measure the changing media opinions about organic through
regular media auditing. This will be a survey of media coverage before the campaign starts
together with telephone interviews with key journalists who have already written about
organic. This activity will be repeated every 12 months during the campaign to track and
measure not only our share of ‘voice’ but also how our key messages are being received.
In terms of activities, building on the success of the Year 3 campaign, the PR activity aims to
provide:
 6 one-to-one media briefings
 10 feature-led pieces
 20 pieces of coverage - broadcast and print
For the trade campaign the PO will be aiming for:
 1 major organic feature
 9 further pieces of coverage during the course of each of the three years of the
campaign.
PR aims to deliver a return on PR investment of 3:1

Action 5: Retailer activation
Objective: To re-ignite trade interest in the organic category so organic becomes more
prominent in store, there are increased numbers of product lines in store and organic moves
further up the retailer’s agenda
How will the objective be achieved?
A two pronged strategy will be implemented focusing on major multiple retailers (accounting
for 70.7% of organic sales) and independent stores (accounting for 15.1% of organic sales) in
2013.8 Both outlets are important for organic food sales and therefore both need attention.
MAJOR RETAILERS PROGRAMME:
Multiple retailers continue to generate a significant majority share of organic sales. However,
sales through UK multiple retailers have reduced in some areas and therefore this has had an
impact on overall organic sales which this campaign aims to address.
Within the multiple grocery channel, the two largest organic retailers, Sainsbury’s and Tesco
suffered the biggest declines, down 1.1% and 6.9% respectively. 9
Three main factors are impacting multiple sales:
 Continued pressure on household spending as family budgets are squeezed
 Continued reduction in organic ranges offered in shops
 A lack of investment in own-label organic ranges

The campaign will address this by working on point of sale materials for retailers. Multiple
retailers represent the largest opportunity for driving organic sales and if we can increase sales
through them, this will have a significant impact on the organic market overall.
Supermarket loyalty cards will provide the means for targeting organic shoppers by
frequency, spend and product category:
 Targeted emails – emails would be sent to highly targeted occasional organic shoppers
incentivising increased purchase of organic products through the incentive of additional
Tesco Club Card loyalty points
 At till loyalty points – to provide added value to customers, loyalty point rewards will be
used as an incentive to increase organic purchase. Specifically, targeted occasional
shoppers would be offered additional points for purchasing a higher number of organic
products on subsequent shops.
INDEPENDENT RETAILERS PROGRAMME:
Organic sales through independent retailers have remained stable and the channel represents a
valuable opportunity for organic sales growth as the channel grows its share of grocery sales.
The recession, growth in single person households, an increase in ageing population and
growing interest in local produce and local communities all have a positive influence on the
appeal of independent retail, in particular convenience shopping, with sales representing 20%
of total grocery sales (£33.9bn sales out of total grocery sales of £163.2bn in 2011).
UK Convenience stores’ sales are forecast to grow by 29% to £44billion over next 5 years
according to IGD Forecast. Of the £10billion growth about half is expected to come from
symbol groups and a third from the convenience formats of the multiples.
Greater caution about how people spend money has led to an increase in shopping ‘little and
often’ to avoid overspending; shoppers feel they have greater control in convenience.
Increase in smaller households leading to less meal planning – so the convenience format
suits changing lifestyles.
One person households reached 7.6 million in 2011 (increase of 1 million over last 10 years);
Reducing food waste is highly important for these people: smaller packs & shelf life both
important.
An ageing population of 9.2 million over 65 years old in 2011 – up 0.9million since 2001;
Older people more engaged with local community – more likely to support local producers,
local retailers, lower food miles, and freshness.
The marketing challenge lies in the number of independent retailers – some 50,000 in the UK
including symbol groups, unaffiliated independent retailers, convenience formats of multiple
grocers, convenience forecourts and co-operatives. In this context the opportunity is to
provide point of sale materials amplifying the core marketing campaign.
This could be provided in two formats
 Printed Point of Sale materials
 A digital downloadable toolkit
Availability of the Point of Sale material would be promoted via trade media and through
distributive trade Cash & Carry stores and Wholesalers.
Rationale
In the 2010 – 2013 campaign we had major success with advertising online on supermarket
websites. This has led to some excellent increases in demand for organic products. (See
section 4.6 above). So it has proven that if you catch consumers’ attention with advertising
when they are actually in the middle of shopping, this has a positive impact on sales. The
campaign therefore needs to work in store to improve visibility of organic products in store
and to remind people that organic ranges exist.
Impact
The expected results outlined below have been calculated based on previous results from
online banner placement campaigns and cross-industry benchmarks.
304
 Targeted coupons have well monitored redemption rates from retailer loyalty
programmes. Our activity should fall between redemption levels of 7-12% - for the
purposes of these calculations an expected 10% redemption has been used.
 The impact of the Point of Sale materials in independent retailers is harder to predict
due to a number of reasons including variety of store formats and customer profiles.
An estimate has been used equal to 50% as effective as comparable online banner
placements.
Multiple Retailer:
Expected sales uplift:
 (Coupons issued x expected redemption x basket spend uplift)
 142,800 x 10% x £5 = £71,400
Independent Retailer:
- Sales value of independents: £480.6m
- Proportion of stores reached 0.8%
- Activity length of 3 months
- Expected basket uplift of 5.5% (11% x 50%)
- Expected sales uplift:
 (Independent Market Value x reach (store% x timings) x % increase (50% of
online))
 £480.6m x (0.8% x 3/12) x (11%*0.5) = £52,866
TOTAL EXPECTED SALES UPLIFT = £124,266 (Uplift during campaign activity.
Additional uplift expected post campaign)
Budget spend and allocation can be reviewed each year to determine the most efficient and
effective use of budget.

Anticipated impact:
The impact of each individual Action has been detailed above where we show the impact we
expect for every Action the campaign takes. Those expected results above, and those below
have all been developed using the “SMART” method as detailed in the European Commission
handbook section 5.2.10
Section 5.10 above also shows how we will track impact and measure results throughout the
programme both quantitatively and qualitatively. In addition, we also expect to have the
following impact.
Quantitative
Overall impact on demand for organic products
Using Kantar data the campaign will track and assess sales every year to measure demand for
organic products. Currently total organic sales stand at -1%11 having risen from a deficit of 12% when the current campaign began in 2010. By the end of the campaign we would expect,
at the very least, a return to growth for the organic market.
Growth in the UK market is subject largely to distribution and availability of products through
a relatively small number of large retailers and a significant but less organised independent

sector. It is also subject to the variations in fortunes of the different product sectors that
comprise the overall market as well as the global economy.
Given the recent history and experience with the first three years of the programme we would
hope to see growth by 2017 at one of these levels:
- Good: with between 0.5 to 1.0% growth
- Significant: as between 1.0 to 2.5% growth
- Excellent: 3% growth. This level of growth will only be achieved if there is a significant
improvement in the UK’s economy. Currently the UK economy is forecast to grow by
between 0.5% and 2.4% in 2014.12 The average forecast is for growth to be 1.5% in 2014;
therefore the estimate of 3% growth is very optimistic when set against this backdrop.
On-line advertising impact
When the campaign adverts are on-line we aim to increase sales of organic products by 10%.
This data will be provided by the retailers we advertise with as they track results for every
advert that appears on their site.
Qualitative
Changing attitudes & awareness

Whilst these are our aims we would also point out that it is very difficult to predict the impact we will have
on people’s attitudes as we cannot foresee political or economic events or food scares that are outside our
control. However, based on experience of the past three years, this is what we would hope to achieve, if all
things continue as they currently are.

Appreciation methods of the impact:
Objective: To measure the impact of the programme on consumer understanding of the
benefits of organic and to assess the impact, change in attitudes and effect on buying
behaviour of the different actions.
The impact of this programme will be both behavioural – measured in terms of numbers of
households buying organic, frequency of purchase, spending on organic foods - and
attitudinal - measured by consumer understanding and disposition towards the benefits of
organic foods and farming.
Attitudinal research
The purpose of the tracking research is to monitor consumer understanding of, and disposition
towards, organic food and farming in the light of the campaign. Tracking will question our
two groups who are the target audience for the campaign:
 Heavyweight purchasers, who buy organic 27+ times per year;
 Occasional purchasers, who buy organic 13-26 times per year.
Tracking research will be conducted on-line as this is the most cost effective way to reach our
audience. The sample of 1,000 people would be recruited from the Toluna panel or similar;
one of the largest and most professionally run online research access panels. All eligibility
criteria including demographics would be screened at recruitment. A separate sample would
be interviewed at each wave.
We have assumed two open ended questions (spontaneous understanding of benefits, and
spontaneous awareness of communications) so we can track awareness and understanding
over time.
Activities
 Research design
 Fieldwork
 Analysis
 Provision of full tabulations, data file, and a summary report in the form of a PowerPoint
document after each wave
 Debrief presentation and discussion of implications
Behavioural research
The primary quantitative measures will be annual sales of organic foods for 2013 – 2017 from
Kantar data as well as sales results of any on-line advertising undertaken.
Each communication channel used by the campaign will also be monitored closely by:
 Coverage of the target audience;
 Opportunities to see;
 Cost per exposure;
 Return on Investment.
Overall budget for measurement of results : EUR 35,255.

RESULTAT OF THE ELIGIBILITY AND QUALITY EXAMINATION
Remarks:
Programme eligible:
oui
First observations to be communicated to MS:
General remarks:
Geographical extent of the actions:
A study has been made on London Underground users 'awareness, but why no other places
are targeted? Why are no other big cities in the United Kingdom targeted?
Goals
Provide the starting point, with reference to the level of awareness of target groups for the
products and themes covered, before the start of the programme in order to assess the
quantitative impact of the programme.
Proposing organisation
Please confirm that the proposing organisation is not a public body as stipulated in Article
1(9) of Directive 2004/18/EC.
Themes/Target groups
Are the themes to be addressed (increase understanding of the benefits of organic food and
drink and organic production method) adapted to those target groups who already buy organic
food?
Creative
The size of the EU flag and of the organic logo is small as compared to the overall size of the
visuals. Is it possible to reconsider this part of the creative so that at least the organic logo is
more prominent?
Annex 3 of the application form (programme identification sheet):
The financing plan p.20 of the annex 3 of the application form does not match with the
financing plan of the programme proposal (p.44).

Specific remarks:
Target groups:
The reason why this programme focuses on consumers who already buy organic is not clear.
Why not trying to reach new consumers? Did the first campaign not succeed in this specific
goal: getting new consumers go on this market? Furthermore, more details on these target
groups would be useful: number of households targeted, evolution of these numbers over the
past years and in relation with the previous campaign. Why not target opinion multipliers as it
was done during the previous campaign? Did these target groups show not to be relevant
during the previous campaign? Moreover, please give details of the awareness of the target
group after the first campaign.
As trade (action 4), retailer (action 5) and media (action 4) are also involved in the
programme, they should be mentioned in the target group.
Themes to be addressed
Please precise that "the use of the word "organic" is protected by European law so organic
food has undergone stringent checks".
Impact
According to the Annex III.C.5 of the Standard Contract, "performance of the evaluation will
be entrusted to an independent external body that is an expert in the field…"
Please confirm that this provision is respected.
Actions
Action 2:
Cross track (48 sheets): why is only London targeted, why no other big cities are targeted?
Digital display: please provide the names of the "relevant food sites" where messages will be
edited and explain the selection process of these sites.
Action 3 (social media):
How is the campaign launched on the Web? Is this campaign limited to the already existing
"fans" or a new target is aimed?
Action 4 (PR):
Section "trade", the target group is not the consumer but journalists and target groups of trade
press and business sections of national titles. This PR action seems also to target the retail
buyers. Therefore, these groups should be mentioned as "target groups".
Action 5
Please specify the geographical extent of this action: where are the shops (major retailers and
independent retailers) located? Please specify also the sell material which will be used for this
action.
Finally, as far as the website of the programme is concerned, we invite you to use the
extension .eu (please refer to the site http://www.ambitionhasanaddress.eu/en for more
information).
