The Cannes Lions festival celebrates creative excellence in brand communications and is the largest gathering of communications, advertising, designers, marketers, and innovators from across the globe. More than half (54%) of all US online shoppers have increased their usage of coupon codes over the past year to stretch their budgets and maximize savings**. And every year, 99% of digital promos go unused**; shoppers miss out on billions in savings due to expired coupon codes, leading to significant financial frustration. The Ziploc® team saw an opportunity – to drive brand engagement and loyalty – by focusing on what Ziploc® does best, preserving food. Ziploc®, long known for safeguarding what matters—from meals to memories—recognized a chance to bring its preservation power to an unexpected space: expired digital promo codes and turned every expired promo into a fresh offer on Ziploc®, as well as fresh food. The campaign invited shoppers to upload a photo or screenshot of an expired food promo to and receive a new offer—up to $4 in fresh savings—redeemable at retailers like Walmart, Kroger, Target, and Amazon. To unlock the deal, shoppers simply had to include a Ziploc® product in their cart. The result? A unique digital experience that preserved expired promos, elevated the Ziploc® brand relevance, and rewarded everyday families in a meaningful way. The program's mobile-first design made the redemption process seamless and intuitive. Shoppers could easily upload their expired coupon, receive real-time validation, and apply the new offer—proving that saving money can be as easy and satisfying as sealing freshness with Ziploc®. The Ziploc® "Preserved Promos" campaign received multiple accolades and was recognized for innovation, mobile-first design, as well as data-driven creative excellence: Grand Prix – Creative Commerce: Consumer Goods (A01) Gold Lion – Direct: Use of Real-Time Data (C03) Silver Lion – Media: Retail Media (B13) Silver Lion – Direct: Market Disruption (F08) Bronze Lion – Creative B2B: Market Disruption (A10) Bronze Lion – Direct: Use of Mobile (D02) Shortlist – Brand Experience and Activation: Market Disruption Shortlist – Creative Commerce: Retail Media Shortlist – Creative Commerce: Customer Acquisition & Retention The campaign generated powerful results for consumers and retailers: +61% Share of Voice – Increasing Ziploc® market presence 5% Sales Lift – Demonstrating direct commercial impact +14% New Buyers – Attracting new Ziploc® consumers +49% Redemption Rate – Showing exceptional consumer engagement 80+ Retail Partners – Representing more than 65,000 stores *Voted most trusted Food Storage Bags, 2025 Brandspark® American Trust Study**Capital One Shopping Research: Retail Data & Analysis ABOUT ZIPLOC® Ziploc® brand bags and containers provide smart, quality solutions that help you maximize your resources, and ultimately get more out of your everyday.
