Hannaford Supermarkets

Hannaford Supermarkets partenered with Sesame Street's Healthy Habits for Life inititvie in 2007 to encourage healthy snacking.

Partnering Stemilt Growers Inc., producers and packers of Washington state apples, the grocery store chain featured a diffrent monthly apple variety paired a character from Sesame Street with a fun message about apples. The promotional program is set to run from January until June, 2007.
