YCD Multimedia [1] announced today that their Benelux partner ThisPlays2 [2] had helped them win a 70 branch install at Krëfel (the largest electrical home appliance chain in Belgium and Luxemburg).
ThisPlays2 together with Fast Retail (Krëfel’s own in-store marketing agency) have developed the disappointedly name ‘Krëfel TV News Channel‘ which will be broadcast on approximately 4,000 screens throughout the 70 Krëfel branches across the Benelux region. The project’s value by the way is estimated at more than 300,000 Euro.
The channel, we are told, “displays an interesting and well-balanced mix of lifestyle content, such as animated movie trailers, information on Krëfel’s products and services and external advertising”.
In addition, shoppers can listen to carefully selected music, played on ‘Krëfel Radio‘ with advertisement spots inserted informing them about new and special offers.
Krëfel’s staff reports that the dynamically programmed, high quality content has proven useful and has been well received by their customers.
Olivia Devuyst, Marketing Manager for Krëfel told us “Krëfel is and has always been a trendsetter in optimizing shopping experiences. KTVN is a very flexible and powerful tool in our marketing mix and we are happy to have delivered a solution that is truly unique in this segment”.
