"Ontario peaches are juicier ,and sweeter tasting than imports, our apples are unsurpassed unsurpassed for eating enjoyment and our tomatoes are rich with a sweet and good tomato taste." Together with a $l-million increase in budget for other non-advertising activities of Foodland Ontario announced today, the campaign represents an important new thrust in the marketing of fresh and processed Ontario products. "We want to use as many tools as possible to increase the consumption in this province of Ontario-produced fresh and processed products," he said. The campaign - featuring television commercials and billboards - will help to increase consumer's association association of the unsurpassed taste of our fruits and vegetables with products carrying the Foodland Ontario symbol. Riddell said the ministry is building on the success of our Foodland Ontario symbol, which now has a very high recognition factor. "We are building on the success of the "Good Things Grow in Ontario" slogan, which helped to create a high degree of awareness of the quality and diversity of Ontario foods. We are now refining that by zeroing in on the great taste of our products." The campaign includes a series of 30-second television commercials, the first of which is to be aired beginning Aug. 4. Peaches, tomatoes, apples, winter vegetables and frozen vegetables are featured , in individual advertisements. À11 commercials have a similar format and the same type of friendly, down-to-earth style. Since Ontario products are locally grown, they taste better since they are fresher and are often harvested at peak quality in comparison to products that must be shipped long distances, Riddell said. The new campaign was created by SMW Advertising Ltd. of Toronto, which was named Foodland Ontario's creative advertising agency earlier this year. By the time this year's campaign ends, about 85 to 90 per cent of the target audience will have seen the commercials about 25 times, Riddell said. Foodland Ontario, now in its ninth year, has been successful successful in making consumers aware of the variety, quality and availability of Ontario food products.
