- Music Solution Helps Enhance Aelia Brand Identity Across Europe and
Asia
Mood Media Corporation (TSX:MM/ LSE AIM:MM), a leading in-store media
specialist, has won a contract to supply Duty-Free retailer Aelia with
bespoke in-store music to play across its European and Asian retail outlets.
The music will be broadcast across 168 Aelia outlets in 28 airports in
the UK, France, Poland, Czech Republic and Hong Kong.
Mood Media worked with Aelia to create a pleasant and relaxing experience
for shoppers prior to flying, through the use of a tailored playlist of over
2000 soothing and uplifting songs by international artists.
Particular emphasis has been placed on outlets in the Paris-Charles de
Gaulle and Paris-Orly airports in France to complement and enforce its
signature 'Buy Paris Duty Free' brand.
The aim of Mood Media's music programme in these airports is to create a
typically Parisian ambiance with four key genres to fit with the outlet
environment: happiness (a selection of upbeat, modern pop tracks), travel
(captivating tracks centred on exploration and foreign lands), comfort
(relaxing lounge tracks) and Paris (a glamorous musical vision of the capital
city).
Lorne Abony, CEO and Chairman of Mood Media Corporation, said: "Audio
solutions help brands speak to their customers. We are thrilled to have been
able to work with Aelia to develop a 'musical identity' which is recognisable
across its global retail network.
"By entering into a highly emotive and sensorial environment where the
music is designed to complement the look and feel of the retail outlet, its
customers are provided with a heightened shopping experience."
