Unmatched value and quality

The campaign, created by adam&eveDDB and bought by MG OMD, promotes our commitment to offering excellent value for money without compromising on the things that matter most to our customers, such as quality, animal welfare, and sustainability. 

The Essential Waitrose campaign showcases the breadth of our value range, which now has over 1,000 products. It will also highlight the provenance behind some of the key products including our outdoor bred pork, free-range milk, and responsibly sourced fish fingers, all at unexpectedly low prices.

Lighting the way

Martin George, Waitrose Customer Director, said: “We’re very excited about this ground-breaking first for us.  As customers look for ways to make their money go further, it’s the right time to promote the unmatched quality and value of our Essential range, which offers over 1,000 great products. 

“Piccadilly Lights are so iconic and reach an audience of over a million people a week, so we know it's an effective way to amplify this campaign.”
