Innovative bakery brand, Deli Kitchen, owned by Signature Flatbreads, is hitting the ground running this year following another strong year seeing double-digit growth in 2024 and with Signature Flatbreads announcing a £150m investment plan for the company over the next five years.
Following research which shows 48% of Brits are stuck in a lunch rut[1] and to capitalise on the trend of consumers adopting healthier habits in January, Deli Kitchen is launching its new lunchtime-focused media campaign. For this, the brand has focused on its Carb Lite Wraps and new Protein wraps to inspire consumers to liven up their lunch break. The Carb Lite Wraps contain just 14.6g of carbs. The Protein Wraps are a daily go-to for an easy way towards adding extra protein into everyday meals, with each wrap containing 10g of protein.
The brand has created three bold, colourful visual variations which will launch across 2750 Tube Card Panels across all London lines, as well as across the underground and train network in Northampton, Milton Keynes and Bedford. The OOH launches on the 14th January and will run for two weeks.
In addition, Signature Flatbreads is excited to announce the expansion of its marketing team with three strategic new hires. The appointments reflect the company’s commitment to driving brand growth and staying at the forefront of innovating the bakery market.
