At the heart of the award-winning video commerce campaign was a forty-five minute livestream cooking demonstration hosted by celebrity chef, Anna Rossi. The event was held on November 3rd, 2022 and hosted on The Fresh Market’s flagship website, TheFreshMarket.com. A staggering 7,140 unique viewers tuned in to watch the event live, while an additional 743,698 viewers watched the on-demand, shoppable replay, which remained available through November 21, 2022. Using Firework’s video commerce technology, viewers could shop within the live and on-demand video modules, adding items to cart as chef Anna Rossi introduced them, and even purchasing an entire, ready-made meal kit, including all the necessary ingredients for Chef Rossi’s entire Thanksgiving feast.

In addition to its industry-leading technological capabilities, Firework also boasts a unique Creative Services offering — a team of industry experts dedicated to helping brands become fluent in the language of livestream shopping and shoppable video. Firework Creative Services helps brands with a wide variety of both fully managed and consultative support, including creative and content strategy, activation training, casting, creative development, and ongoing optimization strategies and full video commerce production.

“Firework is so much more than just another SaaS platform,” said Kevin Miller, Chief Marketing Officer at The Fresh Market. “They are a true partner in video commerce content creation. Livestream shopping and shoppable video are still entirely new media for most organizations. But, with Firework’s white-glove, end-to-end service, any brand can create award-winning video commerce content that drives real, significant business value, all with minimal onboarding and lead time.”

The Digiday Video and TV Awards program recognizes the companies, campaigns and technologies modernizing video and TV. New to the program this year, the category of “Best Live Video Strategy” recognizes the live video strategy that has most successfully achieved its set goals.
