Pacvue Expands Retail Media Offering for Brands to Manage Their Kroger Product Listing Ads

Pacvue, a leading enterprise software suite for brands, sellers, and agencies to manage their eCommerce business, announced general availability of Pacvue Advertising for Kroger, in partnership with Kroger Precision Marketing (KPM), the retail media business of the Kroger Co. The Pacvue software suite will enable advertisers with programmatic bidding, analytics, and automation on Kroger.com.

As America’s largest grocery retailer, Kroger serves 60 million households annually nationwide. Key to their retail media offering, Kroger’s popular loyal-shopper program is connected to 96% of sales.

Advertisers can now use Pacvue to programmatically manage advertising campaigns on Kroger to create cost efficiencies, grow share of voice, and increase sales. Kroger Product Listing Ads are a pay per click solution where brands can set the bid price for individual products within the campaign. The selected products will be eligible to boost within the search results they organically show up in already. The Pacvue suite provides intelligent automation, optimized bidding, and robust reporting tools to succeed with this valuable campaign type.
