Trade Promotions


Trade Promotions - Pepsi 24s Co-op advertisement of an in-store promotion

Exhibit 17.2   Co-op advertisement of an in-store promotion.

Trade promotions take precedence over consumer promotions because the brand must first gain and hold distribution before consumers can buy it. They come in many different forms including trade discounts, free of charge (FOC) goods, contribution to cooperative advertising, promotions support, cash payments, payment for product displays and other selling aids, year-end rebates (monetary and non-monetary), sales on consignment basis, and acceptance of returned good.

Cooperative advertisement is a form of joint advertising where the cost is shared by both the retailer and the manufacturer. These advertisements usually communicate promotional offers, such as the Pepsi promotion at FairPrice supermarkets on May Day (refer to Exhibit 17.2).
