The Path to Purchase Institute, in partnership with presenting sponsor 84.51, unveiled the winners of the second annual OmniShopper Awards on Oct. 20 at P2PI LIVE in Chicago. The OmniShopper Awards program is the only program designed to recognize excellence in shopper engagement across the entire path to purchase, from newer tools like retail media networks and social commerce activations to traditional methods such as in-store displays and on-shelf signage. The program shines a spotlight on the effective activation of touchpoints both separately and as part of more comprehensive campaigns designed to reach shoppers at all stages of their purchase journey.

There were 21 winning campaigns in 13 categories this year. Click on the category headers (or view Related Content below) to read more about them.
