DALLAS, TX - Cinco de Mayo is just around the corner, and you know what that means, it's time to bring out the avocados! In preparation for the holiday, Avocados From Mexico™ (AFM) has partnered with Mission® and Modelo® to create CincOMG-worthy celebrations in the produce aisles.

Stephanie Bazan, Vice President of Shopper and Trade Marketing, Avocados From Mexico"Cinco de Mayo represents a great opportunity to showcase the essence and origin of Avocados From Mexico—the spirit of Mexicanity," said Stephanie Bazan, Vice President of Shopper and Trade Marketing at Avocados From Mexico. "It's important for us to connect with shoppers as they get ready to celebrate this holiday with friends and family. And by partnering with perfect avocado pairings like Mission chips and tortillas and Modelo beer, we're making it convenient for shoppers to find all the essentials they need for Cinco parties."

Over the last five years, avocado consumption in the first four weeks leading up to Cinco de Mayo has grown 27 percent, a press release explained. Capitalizing on this rising trend, the three popular brands have created fun in-store displays and announced consumer savings, sweepstakes, and digital and social activations to inspire shoppers. The new program launched April 11 and will run through May 9, 2022.

Avocados From Mexico™ has teamed up with Mission Foods® and Modelo® to inspire shoppers ahead of the Cinco de Mayo holiday with a new program

This partnership with Mission and Modelo will help retailers turn their aisles into Cinco de Mayo destinations by combining the three items central to celebrating the holiday. Shoppers double their basket spend when buying chips and avocados. They also spend 1.7x more when buying beer and avocados, compared to when avocados are not in the basket, so make sure to get in on this program while the iron is hot.
