1980s During the 1980s Woolworths adopted the "Fresh Food People" slogan that is still in use today. In 1985, Woolworths acquired its Safeway stores through the acquisition of an American company. At this time, Woolworths was the market leader in grocery sales, serving up to 10 million customers per week. In two years, profit rose from $8 million to $136 million.

Advertising Woolworths advertises through TV, radio, newspapers, catalogues, on their website and in-store. The main slogan Woolworths has been using since the 1980s has been "The Fresh Food People" which is used prominently as part of their logo. Safeway, Purity and Roelf Vos also used the slogan as part of their logo. In the early 1990s, an advertising campaign for Woolworths was launched with an advertising jingle that continues today. However, when Woolworths introduced its second slogan "Bringing food to life", that was replaced with a newer one which used both slogans in their jingle. That slogan was eventually dropped and soon after that, reverted back to the original jingle. In late 2005, a new second slogan "Low prices you can count on everyday" was launched. As of 2007, that second slogan has changed to "Low prices you can count on".
