SSP UK, the food travel experts with outlets across major UK train stations and key regional airports, is launching a promotion across UK railway stations in the run up to the World Cup.
The campaign, called ‘Get Your Free Kicks’ will run from 10 June to the 11 July, 2010 and involves a match and win promotion supported by an integrated marketing campaign designed and implemented by 3sixteen.
This is the first time that SSP has run a promotion across such a wide range of its rail outlets; which include some of the worlds most trusted and recognised food brands such as Upper Crust, Caffe Ritazza, Whistlestop, Millies Cookies and Delice de France.
With every purchase consumers will receive one of 3.5million free game cards; each card depicts half of a World Cup nation’s flag and consumers are encouraged to collect and match two halves of a flag with the chance to win products such as baguettes, sandwiches and coffees. The activity will be promoted via transvision and digital 6-Sheet advertising, posters, in-unit point-of-sale and PR.
Heather Cooper, head of marketing development at SSP UK, says: “This is a simple mechanic that should really capture the imagination of our consumers. We’ve been very impressed with the creativity of the team at 3sixteen, as well as their ability to create simple but effective promotional campaigns.”
Carey Trevill, 3sixteen managing partner, says: “This is the first ever cross-brand promotion for SSP and demonstrates a bold step for the company in terms of undertaking a large integrated marketing campaign to drive consumer response.”
