Poultry meat production in Spain is technologically advanced and fully integrated, representing 23% of the national meat production. Around 80% of Spain's total poultry meat comes from chicken.

EURSPO - the Programme:

The EURSPO Programme focuses on the promotion and information of European sustainable poultry products and the benefits of the consumption of European poultry meat with a strong emphasis on the efforts of the industry towards more sustainable European production systems and more sustainable consumption trends (zero food waste).

The market analysis identifies and justifies the need for such an important programme, both for the European Union and the proposing organizations alike (CIPC, BVH, AVIANZA, KRD) and it is aligned with the Farm to Fork and Green Deal strategies and Work Plan 2023 and complies with FBDG (Food Based Dietary Guidelines), reinforcing all efforts made by the European Commission itself.

The programme's main goal is to provide general information and to raise awareness on the sustainability strategies that the European poultry meat industry has been and will continue to be implementing, most significantly in terms of the negative impact of food waste on the environment, the economy and the society.

The general objectives of this proposal are:

  1. to highlight the specificities of the European Unions, in particular in terms of environmental friendliness and sustainability in order to highlight the sustainable strategies that the European poultry meat industry has been implementing for many years;
  2. to increase the awareness of the benefits of choosing EU products in order to promote a healthy lifestyle;
  3. to increase the competitiveness and consumption of European poultry products, thereby increasing the European market share in Germany, France, Spain and Poland.

This proposal has a pan-European identity with a unified European image in all target markets, adapting the message to the individual challenges that they are facing and inspiring and motivating action all stakeholders.

EURSPO program focuses on three main target audience: young people, family decision makers (both of which would form the end consumer section) and key opinion leaders, in France, Poland, Germany, and Spain. By selecting these segments, the promotion campaigns plan on targeting the generations who are seeking information, learning about food choices and making their mind; those who make food decisions for themselves and their families, shaping our consumer trends; and those who can spread our sustainability message.

With an overall budget of over €4 mill and many promotion and information activities in France, Poland, Germany, and Spain the partnership will not only use online and offline channels to communicate the message but will also organize different events, tasting days and workshops to reach the highest number of consumers possible. The impact that this programme will have for the European poultry sector will also encourage other industry key players to work on their sustainability and approach to food waste.

2/ OBJECTIVE OF THE CALL: SELECTION OF AN EVALUATION AGENCY FOR THE CAMPAIGN

In accordance with the EU regulations, the promotion program must be assessed by an external Evaluation Body, in order to guarantee the respect of planned deliverables, costs and objectives.

The agency will determine a methodology to evaluate the correct implementation and effectiveness of the activities, as well as will evaluate the effectiveness of the campaign, especially on the targeted groups determined by the objectives and strategy. The selected evaluation body will have to consider for each planned action the output, result and impact indicator. They will gather data using appropriate means and use the data collected during the campaign to reach an appropriate level of information.

The evaluation body will have to be mindful of:

  • Output indicators: deliverables of the campaign (number of press ads, number of press releases, number of social media posts...)
  • Result indicators: measuring the reach of each action (viewership of videos, readership of press releases and of social media posts...)
  • Impact indicators: measure of how the campaign has increased awareness / image of the product and created a tangible economic return thanks to its various promotion actions, compared to the situation before the campaign and a baseline scenario without the campaign being implemented.

 

3/ BUDGET AND ACTIONS EXPECTED:

The budget of the evaluation of the campaign including fees is 66 000 € (VAT incl.) over a total of 2 year-campaign. The repartition of the total evaluation budget per year is the following:

  • Year 1 (01/01/2024 - 12/31/2024): 15 400 €;

Extract from Plan B - below.

Work Package 8. Evaluation of results

Activity 1: Awareness Level Survey. In order to calculate the evolution of consumer awareness, it is necessary to carry out yearly surveys regarding the level of awareness of sustainability values of the European poultry sector in target countries at the beginning of the programme and at the end of its implementation period. This survey will be carried out by an independent third party which through a series of surveys will report on the status and measurement of indicators established necessary to correctly evaluate the achievement of the target values set for the impact indicators, the persons reached by this survey will be 150 per target country. Evaluation of results. KPI Study As with the activity 1, the study of KPIs is necessary to better estimate the real impact of the programme. The evaluation of the KPIs will include and allow all four beneficiaries to better understand information such as the increase of the recognition towards the EU sustainable poultry and the increase of its consumption and market share in target countries. Data will be extracted from the KPI monitoring to evaluate the results, level of impact and tendences. Study on Perception of Poultry Sustainability. As with the activities 1 and 2, since there is not that much information available for consumer habits and consumer behavior towards sustainability, we aim to develop a study by survey methodology on how consumer behaviors are embracing sustainability regarding the poultry industry. This study is intended to reveal the growing influence of sustainability of the post-pandemic target market's consumers, the insights into the level of engagement between different age groups, the importance of sustainability in the decision-making process, the barriers to sustainable poultry shopping and the key aspects of consumers trends towards sustainable poultry meat and production methods. The persons reached by this survey will be 175 per target country. Thanks to this information and insights, the sustainability and continuity of the programme is ensured and guaranteed.The Survey will be set up following the regulations and expectations following Annex III.
