255

In a significant advancement for retail media, Grocery TV has introduced a closed-loop measurement system that allows advertisers to assess the impact of in-store digital ads across various grocery retailers, including Hy-Vee, Cub Foods, and ShopRite. This initiative addresses a longstanding challenge in retail advertising: the ability to measure ad performance uniformly across different retail environments. ​

Grocery TV’s network spans nearly 6,000 stores across over 120 retailers, reaching approximately one in four Americans.The new measurement capability aggregates sales data from participating retailers, providing advertisers with a comprehensive view of their campaigns’ effectiveness. This development is particularly timely, as in-store retail media spending is projected to grow by 45.5% this year and surpass $1 billion by 2028.

Hy-Vee has been the first to implement this system, offering brands enhanced visibility into how in-store advertising influences sales. Kathryn Mazza, Hy-Vee’s Chief Marketing Officer, emphasized that this capability allows brands to make more informed decisions and improve their retail media performance.

The introduction of this measurement system represents a pivotal shift in retail media, enabling advertisers to better understand and optimize the impact of their in-store campaigns across multiple retail platforms.​
