Brazil’s Megamidia Group [1] has successfully deployed DIA TV across 30 stores of the DIA Groups’ supermarket chain in Brazil.
[2]DIA’s strategy calls for the DIA TV network to be rolled out to at least 100 locations of DIA’s 400 stores within the next 12-months.
The network is comprised of 7-to-10 LCD screens per store and features promotional and lifestyle programming hosted by Jaqueline Pedroso, a well-known television personality in Brazil.
“We’ve been supporting their in-store music needs for more then four years across 400 of DIA’s Brazil-based stores,” says Celso Hey, Megamidia’s president and CEO. “The DIA TV network is a natural extension of our expert capabilities and exemplifies the growing importance that leading companies such as DIA are placing on in-store digital media programs.”
[3]The DIA TV network will also be leveraged to deliver employee targeted communications, including training and motivational messaging, before store opening hours and after closing times. The ‘Keep Up with DIA’ employee programming will be broadcast every Monday and re-broadcast on Saturdays. Employees will be encouraged to engage through contest, sweepstakes, and prize giveaways to participate by contributing to the program – including suggesting music and video content they would like to share with their fellow employees when at work.
The music and DIA TV programming are integral elements of DIA’s in-store experience and communication strategy, helping it to more effectively connect with its customers, and to train and motivate employees.
