Full-service ad agency The Distillery Project (TDP) has created a holiday brand campaign for retailer Meijer. Along with a minute-long spot, TDP shot 30 and 06-second versions. The broadcast TV, streaming video, and social campaign will run throughout the Midwest from November 26 to December 25. TDP has been Meijer’s AOR for eight years. The earnest and reflective spot highlights the value of family and the lasting memories we create together while reevaluating what the holidays mean and what's truly important in 2021. Ultimately, it relays the idea that traditions carried on from childhood keep the magic and love of the holidays alive for generations and are proof that love is timeless. As the 60-second ad opens, a pair of kids are planting a small fir tree in the front yard with their granddad. “Grandpa, will this be our Christmas tree?” the little boy asks, to which he gets the reply, “Someday.” Next time we see them, the kids are tweens, and the tree is quite a few inches taller. Again, the little boy wants to know if it’s “ready.” “Someday,” the patient grandpa says. They return again as young adults to check on the tree, but the answer is always the same. In the final visit, just the sister and brother come upon a mighty fir tree. As they admire it, the brother asks the question one more time, and the sister looks over at her husband and toddler son playing in the snow. Apparently, it is finally ready, but there’s a catch: Rather than cut the tree down for a single year’s use, they decorate it on the spot with cherished ornaments from Meijer.
