Kiwi supermarket New World launches brand campaign
New Zealand supermarket New World has launched a series of TV ads as part of a brand offensive.
The idea behind the ads is that peoples’ moods, occasions, relationships and even the weather affect what and how we eat.
The ads were shot by director Patrick Hughes of Finch who used a variety of cameras – a 35mm, anamorphic, 16mm on a Bolex, digital HD and an iPhone, mixed in with stock footage.
To complement the different stories, three individual music tracks were used, including an original recording of a 1928 blues standard, Fishin’ Blues by Henry Thomas.

It tells me nothing about the service offering, point of difference, etc. But who cares, those are wicked tvc’s and to be honest I am going to go in and check out the first one I see.
Well done peeps
Awesome for any category. But outstanding for this one.
The last one was probably the first ever supermarket ad to give me goosebumps. Excellent track (by Silversun Pickups) as well.
Love ’em. Brilliant.
makes a refreshing change from Curtis fucking Stone
Just way better than anything you’ll see from Woolworths or Coles here. No desperate generic fresh claims or be a gourmet if you shop here.
That last one is extraordinary
Nice! A big move for these guys from what they have had in the past. Kiwi supermarkets are essentially a duopoly with only 2 main players owning the various brands so branding is very important
Amazing. Fantastic work.
A couple of things to point out.
1. New World supermarkets are far better than the crap Woollies and Coles avails to us.
2. New World supermarkets ads are far better than the crap Woollies and Coles avails to us.
Wish they’d open in Australia.
Marvellous, bloody marvellous. There you go Ted, that’s how it’s done.
I quite like it. The fishing spot was unrealistic though. Where was all the booze for the boat FFS?
Brilliant! Finally a client with some vision. Well done!
Wow! So nice to see some really great creative. Especially for the category that bores us with the price and fresh crap
Love the third one!
This creative style would have worked so much better for CommBank #Can idea. True life events where they needed to pay for stuff to fund their budding romance 😉
AWESOME. No surprise that my all-time favourite ad is also from NZ – the Lotto one with the dog travelling through hell and high water to get back to his owner, with Nick Cave playing in the background. What brilliant ads, and great that a client had the vision to approve them.
