Birds Eye Green Cuisine is revealing a new integrated campaign to support its role as the official plant-based sponsor of Team GB for the upcoming Tokyo Olympic Games. The push was developed in partnership with creative agency ELVIS.

To promote its first sponsorship of this size, Birds Eye selected its digital and social agency of record ELVIS as the lead creative agency for the partnership. Green Cuisine has worked with the agency to develop a sponsorship platform in order to boost brand awareness and drive sales amongst flexitarian families, with a focus on its taste credentials.

“Powered by Plants – proud to power Team GB” aims to bring Green Cuisine’s “Plant Power” proposition to life by combining imagery of Team GB athletes with exaggerated Manga-inspired illustrations to highlight their movement, in a nod to the Tokyo location of this year’s Olympic Games.

Running across OOH and social channels including Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, the push features impactful action shots of Team GB’s athletes, including Max Whitlock, Cheavon Clarke and Laviai Nielsen, with Manga-style illustrations amplifying their ‘plant power’. Using a bold art directional style, the campaign showcases the athletes propelled from a Manga-style plant-powered world into their kitchens, where they cook and enjoy Green Cuisine meals.

This activity is supported by a series of online recipes inspired by Tokyo 2020, featuring Japanese meals made with Green Cuisine, along with shopper marketing, PR, and an always-on reactive social strategy. ELVIS also developed the storyboard and voiceover for an updated version of an existing Green Cuisine TV spot as part of the campaign, with editing and playout managed by Hogarth.

Media planning and buying for the campaign is by Zenith, talent management is by Publicis Sport, PR is by Cirkle and shopper activity is by Juice.

Sarah Koppens, Marketing Director, Birds Eye, said: “We are hugely proud that Green Cuisine is the plant-based sponsor at this year’s Olympic Games. Partnering with ELVIS, we have created a dynamic, exciting campaign to celebrate the sponsorship and demonstrate that our products are packed full of powerful nutritional good stuff, giving athletes, and normal people like you and me, plant power. If it’s good enough for Team GB, it’s good enough for families across the nation!”

Rob Griffiths, Creative Director, ELVIS, added: “With so much noise around the Olympic Games, we wanted to create something out-of-the-ordinary to support Green Cuisine’s sponsorship of Team GB. Taking Tokyo as our inspiration, we’ve developed a brave and bold creative platform which positions the brand as a challenger, creating real stand-out for our audience of flexitarians.”

It’s the perfect finale to a great year of tennis and we cannot wait for the tournament to get underway!”

In 2018, Häagen-Dazs is returning to the All England Club as the Official Ice Cream of The Championships, Wimbledon, for the third year running. This year, in a celebration of brand ambassador Grigor Dimitrov’s favourite ice cream flavour, Cookies & Cream, the brand is challenging the classic champion Strawberries & Cream to a battle to find out which will be the No.1 flavour of the summer.

The “Let’s Play” campaign, devised by London-based creative agency Space, aims to highlight the fun, playful characteristics of both the brand and Dimitrov by introducing his favourite flavour, Cookies & Cream as the disruptive new challenger to the traditional favourite ‘champion’ Strawberries & Cream.

To mark the collaboration, the brand is introducing his all-time favourite flavour, Cookies & Cream, on a limited-edition stick bar designed by Grigor himself. This will be launched exclusively for Wimbledon to further drive buzz and rival Strawberries & Cream head-on for the duration to become the must-have accessory of The Championships.

Grigor Dimitrov, global ambassador for Häagen-Dazs, says: “I’ve been a Häagen-Dazs Cookies & Cream guy all my life, so when my favourite ice cream brand asked me what flavour I wanted as my limited-edition for my favourite tournament, the answer was obvious as it’s the one flavour I can’t live without. I’m thrilled to be the creator of the flavour challenge for this summer’s #letsplay campaign and had a great time collaborating on my limited-edition which I hope everyone will get to enjoy during The Championships. I love Wimbledon and all its traditions, but this time, I am hoping to start a new one with my Cookies & Cream.’’

The campaign will be activated across a series of content films, placed through Facebook, YouTube and Instagram, as well as out of home and in-store across all major supermarkets with money-can’t-buy experiences.

The ‘Champion vs Challenger’ campaign will also be brought to life on-site at the Häagen-Dazs parlour at The Championships with a face-off between Wimbledon’s favourite strawberries and cream-inspired ‘Champion’ recipe and Grigor’s favourite cookies and cream inspired ‘Challenger’ recipe.

In the build-up to The Championships, Wimbledon, the brand will also be activating the ‘Champion vs Challenger’ series around LTA events, including The Queen’s Club featuring fan engagements with Grigor himself and the Women’s Tennis Association’s (WTA) Tennis On The Thames event at Bernie Spain Gardens on London’s Southbank, at the foot of the OXO Tower.

Here, the brand will bring the #LetsPlay campaign creative to life for consumers in the form of an epic ‘Champion vs Challenger’ piñata game, in which consumers will be invited to participate, with free ice cream sampling happening all day on Thursday 28th June. Fans will also have the chance to challenge a secret women’s tennis star, who is a huge Häagen-Dazs fan herself and join in the flavour challenge.

Arjoon Bose, Head of Marketing at Häagen-Dazs, says: “We are thrilled to be launching our third Häagen-Dazs summer as Official Ice Cream of The Championships, Wimbledon. This year, however, we wanted to be more disruptive and playful, taking a cue from our very own super fan and ambassador Grigor Dimitrov who really germinated the idea for this unexpected flavour challenge, to create what we believe is our most engaging Wimbledon campaign to date. Grigor is a major challenger for Wimbledon himself and backing #TeamCookies which is certainly raising the stakes. But with our Strawberries & Cream keeping the bar high from last year, can Grigor’s favourite live up to the challenge and convince the nation? You decide!”

David Atkinson, Managing Director at Space, adds: “Space is proud to bring to life the collaboration between Häagen-Dazs and Grigor Dimitrov to celebrate some of the brand’s classic flavours during this grass court season. We’d like tennis fans and ice cream lovers to try both flavours and declare support for their favourite. So often ambassadors have only a tenuous link with the brand that they support, and it’s been refreshing to work with someone like Grigor who is sincerely passionate about his love for Häagen-Dazs.”

The campaign forms part of a £1million marketing investment, which includes out of home, TV, PR and social.

Häagen-Dazs is the Official Ice Cream of The Championships, Wimbledon, and British Tennis. The brand is owned by General Mills, which also owns a portfolio of dynamic market-leading brands including Old El Paso, Green Giant, Betty Crocker, Nature Valley and Jus-Rol.

El Jimador, a leading premium tequila brand owned by US drinks giant Brown-Forman, is launching a ‘smart’ bottle and connected drinks coaster, using technology developed by Norwegian NFC experts, Thinfilm.

The six-figure deal is a key element of el Jimador’s omni-channel ‘Soccer Moments’ campaign, and is being heralded as the biggest ever largest NFC-related activation for a tequila brand. El Jimador is the sponsor of the Mexican National Soccer team’s 2018 US tour.

In collaboration with Thinfilm, el Jimador has incorporated NFC tags in custom bottle-neckers and branded coasters. When tapped with a smartphone in-store, at home, or on the go, el Jimador customers can instantly submit their favorite soccer story for a chance to win $25,000, custom jerseys, and other prizes. The NFC tags fully integrate with Thinfilm’s CNECT Cloud Platform and enable el Jimador marketers to view real-time tapping activity, analyze campaign performance, and uncover actionable insights.

The connected el Jimador bottles and coasters are being distributed through select retail outlets, bars, and restaurants across the United States.

Ed Carias, Senior Brand Manager for el Jimador tequila at Brown-Forman says: “Our Soccer Moments campaign is connecting us with consumers who are both fans of soccer and fans of the el Jimador brand. By leveraging the smartphone that most of us carry today, Thinfilm’s NFC solution significantly extends our ability to establish those connections, build lasting consumer relationships, and drive the success of the el Jimador brand.”

Following its Soccer Moments promotion, el Jimador plans to use Thinfilm’s NFC mobile marketing solution in a “Day of the Dead” campaign this coming October.

“It has become increasingly common for leading brands like el Jimador to position NFC as a key enabler within major omnichannel marketing initiatives,” said Davor Sutija, CEO of Thinfilm. “The Soccer Moments campaign is a perfect example.”

Thin Film Electronics ASA is a publicly listed company in Norway with global headquarters in Oslo, Norway; US headquarters in San Jose, California; and offices in Linköping, Sweden; San Francisco; London; Hamburg; Singapore; and Shanghai. Its Thinfilm solutions use NFC to connect FMCG products to the Internet of Things.

El Jimador is a premium 100% blue agave tequila made by Mexican distillery Tequila Herradura, founded in 1870. In 2007, the company was bought by Brown-Forman for $776 million. Over the past 10 years, Brown-Forman, which owns other alcohol brands including Jack Daniel’s, Southern Comfort and Finlandia Vodka, has been expanding international distribution for el Jimador and it is now sold in 136 countries, compared with the 56 countries at the time of the acquisition.

London-based specialist Digital Out of Home (DOOH) agency Grand Visual has been brought in by Coca-Cola in Switzerland to run a large-format Augmented Reality (AR) experience at Zürich’s main train station to celebrate the FIFA World Cup and the soft drinks brand’s continued support of the game.

The campaign was created by Top-Spot and London-based DOOH creative services firm Grand Visual, which also directed and built the bespoke creative technology set-up. Project initiation and promotion consultancy were performed by GroupM Out of Home. Media planning and buying was by Top-Spot and Mediacom. Anthem provided video assets and delivered a social sharing App to further engage audiences on-the-go.

Robert Percze, Senior Brand Manager at Coca-Cola Switzerland says: “Coca-Cola Switzerland is pleased to offer a new type of experience for football fans. It’s the perfect way to get people into a perfect football mood right at the beginning of the FIFA World Cup 2018.”

Energy drink Carabao has launched a new on-pack offer giving UK and Irish consumers the chance to win a share of a total £1m cash prize fund, the brand’s biggest-ever giveaway. The top prize has been set at £50,000.

The campaign launches July 1st 2018 and will run for three months, offering consumers an opportunity to win every 60 seconds.

Carabao, which is a major football sponsor, plans to support the promotion with a £1m+ TV ad campaign that will run throughout August and September on ITV, Sky and Channel 5. There will also be on-demand ads, press ads, big screens at football stadiums and pitch-side LEDs.

To enter, consumers have to be over 18. They need to buy a promotional can, go to www.CarabaoCash.com and enter the unique code found under the ring-pull. They will find out instantly if they have won a prize.

The launch of the new prize draw comes hot on the heels of Carabao’s latest major campaign; last month’s We Are Female Fans initiative – which aimed to change negative female football fan stereotypes – as well as a stunt involving offering a helicopter service to help Southern Rail commuters get to work on time despite the timetable changes.

Carabao says its on-going investment in initiatives of this type – appealing to a mass market, inclusive adult audience – is part of outs strategy to differentiate itself from other energy drinks and drive further growth in the energy drinks category as a whole.

John Luck, Chief Marketing Officer at Carabao UK, says: “Giving away £1M is a pretty crazy thing to do, but Carabao is a drink for people leading increasingly busy and bonkers lives, so it feels entirely appropriate.”

Carabao’s energy drinks range is exclusively low or no sugar, with the promotion available in all available flavours.

Carabao was invented in Thailand by a rock star called Aed Carabao, who named himself and his band after the carabao, a local breed of buffalo. It claims to be the only energy drink brand in the UK to offer exclusively low-sugar or sugar-free product formats.

Nature Valley, the official snack bar of the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA), is bringing back its ‘The Court is Yours’ campaign for the second year running, and has signed up Great Britain Davis Cup captain Leon Smith to front the activity alongside last year’s brand ambassador, British no. 1 Johanna Konta.

The campaign, put together by creative marketing agency Space, calls on the British public to pick up a racket and get playing. Designed to encourage people of all ages and abilities to get out and play tennis this summer, it follows last year’s successful campaign which resulted in Nature Valley becoming the No. 1 protein bar brand, and the fastest growing. This year’s campaign will focus on supporting 150,000 people to get out in nature and play tennis, proactively demonstrating how you can play wherever and whenever.

Johanna Konta and Leon Smith will provide inspiration and share their top tennis tips, encouraging people to make their own court wherever they are, with whatever they have at hand, such as using a bench as a net to make a court space between two trees.

The campaign is aiming for a reach of over 500m, tripling last year’s results through an integrated approach across shopper, digital, social and PR.

To bolster its grassroots credentials and get more people playing at tennis venues as well as on improvised courts, for the first time Nature Valley is also supporting the LTA’s Great British Tennis Weekend on July 21-22, a country-wide initiative to help tennis clubs and venues attract people from the local community to come and try their local tennis facilities and have a go at the sport.

In partnership with four clubs in Eastbourne, Birmingham, Nottingham and South West London, the weekend of play aims to make tennis more accessible for families across the country, encouraging them to visit their local courts and have fun with tennis. The clubs will be holding a range of free activities to demonstrate the many ways to get into tennis, from mini tennis for youngsters, opportunities for families to play together, and showcasing fitness sessions such as Cardio Tennis. The Nature Valley activity at the London club will also welcome Johanna to the event, where she will play with members of the public and share her top tips.

To further support tennis in British, tennis fans will be able to keep their energy levels up by trying a variety of Nature Valley bars with more than 50,000 bars given away during the summer.

Arjoon Bose, Marketing Head UK & Northern Europe for Häagen-Dazs, Nature Valley and Fibre One, says: “Our ambition is for everyone in Britain to include a Nature Valley bar in their tennis kit bag. We are excited about continuing our journey with British Tennis by working with both our ambassadors and helping make tennis more accessible to people across the country. We want to demonstrate the power of sport to connect with our audience and show that tennis can be enjoyed by everyone, anywhere.”

Last year’s campaign (which won Gold in the Most Effective Sponsorship category at the IPM Awards 2018 last week) saw total brand sales grow +19% on the previous year, and generated the brand’s highest ever penetration at 15.2% – contributing 70% of total segment growth in the category. It generated a 76% lift in sales for Nature Valley’s protein line, resulting in record share and penetration.

This year’s campaign will also include bespoke initiatives with Tesco and Sainsbury’s, giving shoppers the chance to win equipment and skills such as a coaching session, tennis kit signed by Johanna Konta and professional Babolat rackets and balls. The British no. 1 will also appear in person at supermarkets in Birmingham, Eastbourne and Nottingham.

David Atkinson, Managing Partner at Space, adds: “The Court is Yours is an inspirational campaign with a true purpose. It’s a long-term and powerful platform designed to create real change for good that we can evolve year on year to align with Nature Valley’s ambitions to encourage more people to get involved with the sport by providing inspiration and practical support.”

Newly-signed brand ambassador Leon Smith has been the Great Britain Davis Cup captain since 2010, leading the team to Davis Cup victory in 2015. He coached Andy Murray during his early years and has been devoted to developing and growing the new generation of British tennis talent in his Davis Cup capacity.
