New loyalty program launched Today, Empire (Sobeys Inc.) is announcing the launch of Scene+ at its stores throughout Quebec, marking the fourth phase of the program’s rollout in Canada. Empire is now a co-owner of Scene+ with Scotiabank and Cineplex to drive this new loyalty program forward and will be able to offer customers more flexibility, more options, and personalized offers. “We are very pleased to be able to offer this new loyalty program to our customers. As we all know, groceries are a weekly necessity, and as a full-service banner, we want to offer a program that will meet even more needs and allow consumers to reward themselves in so many ways,” says Carl Pichette, Vice-President, Marketing, Quebec. “Customers at Empire’s corporate and franchise stores in Atlantic Canada, Ontario, and the rest of Western Canada have been delighted to earn and redeem points as often as they want,” said Tracey Pearce, President, Scene+. “We are excited about the extension of the incredible value of this program to our members in Quebec as Empire concludes the fourth phase of its Scene+ rollout across Canada.” Scene+ is transitioning from an entertainment-focused loyalty program to a full lifestyle loyalty program and is now available at all IGA, Les Marchés Tradition and Rachelle Béry stores and on Voilà’s online platform. Customers will be able to earn points and rewards on banking products with Scotiabank, movies with Cineplex, and home improvement with Home Hardware (starting this summer). The program, which will continue to evolve, will also allow customers to redeem points for trip planning with Scene+ Travel, powered by Expedia, and for shopping with major brands such as Apple, Best Buy, and many more. “In addition to enjoying a wide selection of choices, consumers can now earn points when they shop at IGA supermarkets in Quebec and New Brunswick, at Rachelle Béry and Les Marchés Tradition stores, and online with Voilà par IGA and use them towards buying their groceries.” explains Carl Pichette, Vice-President, Marketing, Quebec.
