INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (August 22, 2024) – Walmart BB #:143789 has launched an online Back to School campaign featuring The Produce Moms BB #:366223 CEO Lori Taylor and the TPM brand.
Taylor is featured on Walmart’s US e-commerce Website and App in a Back-to-School Campaign that features products representing The Produce Moms Approved seal.
“The Produce Moms Approved seal represents a product that supports our mission to get more fruits and vegetables on every table,” said Taylor. “NatureSweet, Wada Farms, Crunch Pak, and Sage Fruit are some of the TPM partner brands represented within this Walmart campaign.”
TPM also awards the seal to brands engaged in sustainability and employee engagement:
• the product extends the fresh life of fruits and vegetables, in support of The Produce Moms value of reducing food waste;
• reduces plastic waste associated with grocery shopping, in support of The Produce Moms value of environmental sustainability;
• and the employer provides childcare, lactation facilities, and/or meaningful paid maternity/paternity leave, supporting The Produce Moms value of building career and family.
“Incorporating The Produce Moms into our Back to School campaign was a no brainer,” said Walmart Grocery eCommerce Manager of Site Merchandising, Evan Gaetano. “Lori and TPM stand for accessibility to fruits and vegetables, aligning with Walmart’s mission of helping consumers save money while accessing what they need to live better.”
Consumers within the United States can view and purchase TPM-approved products through Walmart.com and the Walmart Mobile App. Featured brands include TPM partners NatureSweet, Wada Farms, CrunchPak, Sage Fruit (Cosmic Crisp Apples), Duda Farms Fresh Foods, Naturipe Farms, and Envy Apples. Many of the fresh products are packaged and easy to include in a lunch box or bag.
“One of the ways TPM promotes our mission of getting fruits and vegetables on every table is by encouraging our audience to always make fruits and vegetables available to children when food is being served,” said Taylor. “This campaign supports that by promoting convenient and fun products for parents to include for their kids.”
