George Weston Foods (GWF) has kicked off a new campaign for its breakfast iconic brand Golden to further leverage Aussie’s love for its gloriously spongy, holey crumpets.
In order to drive frequency of purchase for crumpets, BMF introduces a story about one crumpet that dreamed of more. More than just butter, jam, and honey; despite its family being so set in its old ways.
Golden’s marketing and innovation director, Graeme Cutler, said: “Increasing purchase frequency of Golden crumpets represents a serious growth opportunity, and will be brought to life through this not so serious, but joyous and highly engaging campaign. ”
Cam Blackley, executive creative director at BMF, said: “We just hope people can accept that in 2017 a crumpet should be free to wear what it likes.”
BMF worked with Revolver/Will O’Rourke and Psyop in order to create a mini animated crumpet world. Each character was modelled from a real Golden Crumpet using stop frame animation.
The multi-channel campaign includes TVC, digital, social, and a Facebook app launching in the second campaign burst in September.
