NEW YORK, NY, June 14, 2012 (Press-News.org) Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company (A&P) President and Chief Executive Officer Sam Martin is featured in the company's new marketing campaign, according to a Wall Street Journal article. The campaign pushes A&P's vision to be the top neighborhood food and drug store with better services, products and value. Communications and marketing professional Brianna Ladapo believes the campaign will appeal to A&P customers.
"The campaign's theme, 'Shopping just got a whole lot better,' is relatable to customers," Brianna Ladapo said. "When I go into any store, I want it to be fully stocked, presentable and easy to maneuver. It's also important that customer service representatives are present and able to help me with questions or concerns."
For the first time, the new marketing campaign will reach all A&P, The Food Emporium, Pathmark, Superfresh and Waldbaum's stores. Tim O'Boyle, Executive Vice President of Merchandising, Marketing and Supply and Logistics at A&P, said, "We chose Sam to be featured in our ads so that he could share his passion of a better shopping experience with our customers and help them see why coming to our stores is better than ever before."
To spread the word, the campaign started using in-store signage, direct mail and digital search components last month. Television commercials with Martin begin airing May 10 on select networks and cable stations, like HGTV, E! and The Food Network. A&P has also revamped its website to match the new marketing campaign.
As part of the marketing initiative, A&P added a new line of bakery items with gluten-free products; chicken, turkey and beef products raised humanely on family farms; top-quality Angus beef at low prices; and in-store shopping tips promoting healthier living. Several Pathmark and The Food Emporium stores have been renovated this past year and plans are in the works to remodel more in the future.
Brianna Ladapo notes that adding these new components makes A&P stand out among the competition. "In today's society, people are striving to be healthier," she said. "They want fresh, local produce. They are reading labels, counting calories, and being more conscious of what goes into their bodies. A&P is wise to make this information available to its customers."

Bat bridges don't work
2012-06-14
Wire bridges built to guide bats safely across busy roads simply do not work, University of Leeds researchers have confirmed.
In a study published today (13 June 2012) in PLoS ONE, a team from the University's Faculty of Biological Sciences monitored four wire bridges spanning major roads in the north of England. All had been built over the last nine years to replace hedgerows – the bats' established commuting routes – when these routes were severed by new roads.
Roads act as barriers to bats, cutting colonies off from established feeding sites and reducing their ...
'Hitchhiking' viral therapy deals a double blow to cancer
2012-06-14
Scientists have shown how a promising viral therapy that delivers a double blow to cancer can sneak up on tumours undetected by hitching a ride on blood cells.
The work, led by researchers from the University of Leeds and The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR), reveals how the 'hitch-hiking' virus is shielded from antibodies in the blood stream that might otherwise neutralise its anti-cancer properties.
The findings, from a study in patients, suggest that viral therapies like this can be effectively injected into the bloodstream during routine outpatient appointments ...
Innovations in anticoagulation for stroke prevention
2012-06-14
Nice, 13 June 2012: New scientific findings in anticoagulation for stroke prevention are paving the way for updates to the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Guidelines for the management of atrial fibrillation.
Some of these findings were presented during the European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) sessions at Cardiostim 2012, 13-16 June, in Nice, France. Cardiostim is an international scientific congress in the field of electrophysiology and cardiac techniques. It is organised in collaboration with the ESC and EHRA, which is a registered branch of the ESC. Link to ...
Genetic discovery will help fight diarrhea outbreaks
2012-06-14
Researchers at the University of East Anglia (UEA) have discovered unexpectedly large genetic differences between two similar species of the pathogenic Cryptosporidium parasite.
Published today in the journal Evolutionary Applications, the findings pave the way for a new gold standard test to distinguish between the waterborne parasite's two main species affecting humans. One species is spread from person to person (Cryptosporidium hominis) but the other is often spread from livestock to people (Cryptosporidium parvum).
"Being able to discriminate quickly between the ...
Tracking MRSA in real time
2012-06-14
In a new study released today in New England Journal of Medicine, researchers demonstrate that whole genome sequencing can provide clinically relevant data on bacterial transmission within a timescale that can influence infection control and patient management.
Scientists from the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, University of Cambridge, and Illumina collaborated to use whole genome sequencing to identify which isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) were part of a hospital outbreak.
Current laboratory techniques often cannot distinguish between ...
Putting parasites on the world map
2012-06-14
Researchers have developed a new technique to identify hotspots of malaria parasite evolution and track the rise of malarial drug resistance, faster and more efficiently than ever before.
For the first time, researchers have the ability to analyse malaria genomes straight from patient blood samples using new sequencing technologies and informatics methods. As a proof of principle, the team conducted the first analysis of clinical samples from six countries and uncovered unique differences in malaria development in Africa, Asia and Oceania. This study is published in Nature ...

'Extremely little' telescope discovers pair of odd planets
2012-06-14
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - Even small telescopes can make big discoveries.
Though the KELT North telescope in southern Arizona carries a lens no more powerful than a high-end digital camera, it's just revealed the existence of two very unusual faraway planets.
One planet is a massive, puffed-up oddity that could change ideas of how solar systems evolve. The other orbits a very bright star, and will allow astronomers to make detailed measurements of the atmospheres of these bizarre worlds.

Caregiver's health is strong predictor of orphan's health
2012-06-14
DURHAM, N.C. -- The health of a caregiver is the most important predictor of orphan health, according to a new Duke University study that spans five less-wealthy nations in Africa and Asia. More important than an orphan's geographic location, living conditions or past trauma, the Duke study finds that an unhealthy caregiver likely means an unhealthy child.
The findings prompt Duke researchers to call for international orphan policies to place greater attention on assessing and treating an orphan and his caregiver's health together, rather than focusing solely on children's ...
