The first Outstanding Shopper Marketing Awards (OSMA), to be held on 1 November, have been launched by Shop! South Africa, the new trade association dedicated to enhancing retail environments and experiences.
The association is calling on the shopper marketing industry for entries and sponsors.
“As the retail market evolves and consumer behaviour changes, it’s more important than ever to recognise shopper marketing as an approach that goes beyond traditional marketing to create more immersive and personalised buying experiences for consumers,” says Shop! global development director, Leo van de Polder.
Global annual awards
Around the world, the Shop! OSMA awards have become the industry’s major annual awards contest, with the intent to recognise and reward best practice, innovation, and excellence in shopper marketing.
“What sets the awards apart are their focus on shopper programmes and executions that change shopper behaviour and deliver results,” says Shop! SA managing director, Di Wilson.
“Where other awards recognise the creative industry, we recognise shopper marketing. The Shop! OSMA Awards celebrate creativity, innovation and excellence in-store, online and throughout the shopper path to purchase. It’s all about moving the dial, increasing the bottom line, changing consumer behaviour and driving shopper conversions,” says Wilson.

First of all I would like to say terrific blog!
I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your head before writing.
I’ve had trouble clearing my mind in getting my ideas out there.
I truly do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are wasted just trying to
