Lantmännen’s long-term communication receives new recognition — “Länge leve jorden” honored for the fourth year in a row
"It means a lot that Lantmännen has been recognized for our long-term communication and the impact it has had. By focusing on how sustainable food is produced and the crucial role farmers play, we have reached a broad audience and sparked engagement. Our responsibility from field to fork adds credibility — and the communication has strengthened trust in both Lantmännen and Swedish farmers," says Frida Tydén, SVP and Head of Communications & Marketing at Lantmännen.
The competition jury highlights that “Länge leve jorden” has strengthened the image of Lantmännen as an important societal actor and delivered measurable effects, such as higher trust and appreciation.
"This is not a one-off campaign. It is long-term communication work, built step by step over time, with the goal of increasing knowledge about Sweden’s socially critical agriculture and why it matters to all of us. That perspective also shapes how we communicate — fewer slogans, more context. For us, the Long-term category is the finest one, and the one I am most proud of," says Mark Robinson, Director, Group Brand & Marketing at Lantmännen.
The jury further notes that Lantmännen connects business and transition, and that the concept spans the environment, biodiversity and profitability in a “from field to fork” logic.
"This is clear proof that emotional, long-term communication can drive business impact. 450 watts over four years is a tangible confirmation of the value created by the entire team behind the communication concept over five years," says Per Holgård, Head of Group Marketing at Lantmännen.
