The packaging for Ardmona's tinned tomatoes, featuring pictures of growers with their families, has been designed to boost its appeal as a paddock-to-plate brand as SPC rolls out its latest advertising campaign.

The campaign follows SPC’s 2015 #MyFamilyCan campaign, which centred around Kialla East peach and pear grower Gary Godwill.
