Hyundai Motor America and U.S. Hispanic marketing agency Lopez Negrete Communications introduced a new Spanish-language campaign for the IONIQ 6 that helps debunk electric vehicle myths. The campaign, aimed at Hispanic audiences, launches May 2nd and includes a :30 TV commercial, :15 online videos, and digital and social media content that will be in-market through the end of 2023. Lopez Negrete Communications and Hyundai’s media agency, Canvas, collaborated on media planning and buying.  The campaign, Viejos Cuentos (Cautionary Tales), challenges common misconceptions about EV accessibility, range, performance, and maintenance with relatable and culturally sensitive family old tales. The new campaign encourages Hispanic audiences to question and challenge long-held, popular misconceptions and confidently embrace the excitement of the next generation of automobiles with the all-electric Hyundai IONIQ 6.

  • ALDI 

ALDI, one of America’s fastest-growing retailers, is further solidifying its position as one of the fastest-growing grocers in the country by adding 120 new stores this year. At a time when inflation is forcing some retailers to slow growth, or even shutter stores, customers are actively asking for more ALDI locations in their communities. Known for its unique shopping experience and selection of the best products at the lowest prices, ALDI will have more than 2,400 stores nationwide by the end of the year. This year’s planned expansion builds on a banner year in 2022. ALDI opened and remodeled 139 stores, welcomed approximately 9.4 million new customers and drove double-digit growth year-over-year as shoppers sought relief from soaring food prices. The grocer is on track to continue that momentum this year, opening 35 stores in the first quarter alone and welcoming 5.3 million new customers to its stores as of April 2023. ALDI new store openings will span the continental U.S., including the rapidly growing Southeast region where ALDI recently opened its 26th regional headquarters and distribution center in Loxley, Alabama to help support new stores in the area. This year, ALDI will add stores in Baton Rouge and New Orleans, new markets for the grocer. The brick-and-mortar expansion is part of a larger omnichannel experience designed to make grocery shopping as convenient and enjoyable as possible, no matter how customers prefer to shop, whether in-store, through curbside pickup, or via delivery through shop.ALDI.us or through e-commerce partners DoorDash and Instacart. As part of its larger commitment to sustainability, the grocer is enhancing new and existing stores with eco-friendly features. As part of this national expansion, ALDI will add nearly 2,000 new employees to support the additional store count. As a Certified™ Great Place to Work® and one of Forbes’ America’s Best Large Employers, ALDI will bring its employee-focused culture and above-average industry pay to more markets coast-to-coast.
