Jan Linders Supermarkten is a regional supermarket chain founded in 1963. With over 60 stores, all in the southeast of the Netherlands their focus is on solidarity with the region and a good balance between product, price and promotion.

our approach

Sharing knowledge and product
Customers can learn more about product groups such as olive oil, bread, nuts, potatoes, vegetables and fruit through instore signing where this specific “knowledge” is shared. "Knowledge and product are shared exuberantly with the customer." Or as the Levensmiddelenkrant describes it: "Jan Linders teaches customers".

Jan Linders' DNA
With great pleasure we developed a communication concept based on the DNA of Jan Linders: being helpful. Customers can learn more about product groups such as olive oil, bread, nuts, potatoes, vegetables and fruit through instore signing where specific product “knowledge” is shared. "Knowledge and product are shared exuberantly with the customer." Or as the Levensmiddelenkrant describes it: "Jan Linders teaches customers".

The new instore and outdoor communication gives Jan Linders customers that 'joie de vivre' feeling: Jan Linders knows how the south eats and celebrates life. The focus is on inspiring the customer putting together his meal and also on offering more shopping convenience. Because of that combination, the formula gets even more identity.
