Foodies Are SORTED: Tesco Partners With SORTEDfood, Europe's Largest Cooking Community On YouTube
Tesco has
partnered with SORTEDfood, one of the world's largest social media cookery
channels, to help inspire a new generation to fall in love with cooking and
food. The partnership, which is a media
first, will showcase Tesco’s passion for food.
SORTEDfood
has over 800,000 subscribers on its YouTube channel, with over 4million monthly
views. With many video recipes the result of the SORTED community's suggestions
or requests, engagement levels are the highest of any food based YouTube
channel.
Originally
school mates, Ben, Barry, Jamie & Mike now dedicate all their time to
running the channel where they release video recipes every few days to share
with everyone from first time cooks to passionate foodies. Simple recipes are
complemented with a heavy dose of entertainment, and tips or twists are often
suggested by the community.
Tesco’s first
content will focus on cooking with everyday essentials and products where
prices are down and staying down. This
is one of the areas where customers said they wanted some inspiration, so Tesco
challenged the SORTED team to develop three unique recipes using ingredients
like fresh chicken, tomatoes, cucumbers, eggs and milk. The video will air for
the first time on a bespoke air slot between the National and Regional news on
Thursday 26 June, and will be supplemented by a full video recipe released
online.
Leonie
Foster, Customer Communications Director at Tesco comments, “We’re delighted to
be partnering with SORTEDfood. We know our customers love tasty, simple and
delicious recipes and are always looking for great value meal solutions. So
whether a first timer or an experienced cook, customers will find something
that they enjoy cooking. We’re inspired by the creativity of the SORTED team
and hope our customers are too!”
Barry Taylor
of SORTEDfood said, “Working with Tesco is a great way to amplify what we do
and connect with an even wider community, hopefully encouraging them to get in
the kitchen and try something new.”
The SORTED
team recently joined a Tesco Farm to Fork trail, which takes primary school
children to Tesco stores and suppliers’ farms and factories to learn where
their food comes from. So far over 120,000 children have taken part. Watch the
film here.
