They have teamed up with digital retail agency, abc media, to make the Media Centre work.

"We are the first major retailer to adopt this innovative, co-ordinated approach to in-house media targeting consumers at the point of purchase," said head of commercial marketing at The Co-operative, Susan Beetlestone.

"At a time of media fragmentation and changing consumer habits we can offer brands a unique opportunity to reach millions of regular shoppers and members. We are committed to becoming a credible media owner and delivering results for advertisers."
