PRSA CT Presents Stop & Shop With Mercury Award

Mercury

Stop & Shop has been awarded the 2021 Bronze Mercury Award for Crisis Communications by the Greater Connecticut Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America.

The retailer was honored for its communications around the implementation of senior shopping hours and its partnership with Uber during the COVID-19 pandemic to offer discounted rides during those special shopping hours.

The Mercury Awards recognized outstanding creative and strategic excellence demonstrated in 2020-21 by a wide variety of agencies, companies, colleges, nonprofits and organizations across the state following judging by 19 members of the New Mexico Chapter of Public Relations Society of America.

“Stop & Shop and Rubenstein Associates have worked diligently together to set a high standard for innovation and creativity in our continued execution of public relations tactics and campaigns,” said Maura O’Brien, Stop & Shop spokesperson. “This award is particularly meaningful after a year filled with unforeseen and unprecedented challenges.”

With nearly 100 members, the chapter encompasses a diverse group of entry-, mid- and senior-level professionals, representing advertising agencies, independent consultants, business and industry, government, hospitals and health care organizations, professional associations, education and nonprofit organizations.

Through PRSA CT’s website and social media channels, Stop & Shop received public recognition and digital tributes in lieu of an in-person award ceremony. This year’s virtual Mercury Awards celebration was sponsored by Sullivan & LeShane Public Relations Inc. and Albertus Magnus College.
