AUCKLAND, Today: DDB Aotearoa has created an Easter campaign for New World, based on the insight of Easter being a much more casual and relaxed holiday than Christmas.
Creative director Courtney Dow says the campaign celebrates the joy of a laidback Easter weekend filled with Easter egg hunts, relaxing picnics at the beach and last-minute barbeques with friends.
“Easter is a time for New Zealanders to gather with friends and family to have a chilled weekend together,” she said.
“The casual vibe of the holiday does tend to mean plans can pop up unexpectedly, so it pays to be prepared – and that’s where New World comes in.
“The campaign encourages us to expect the unexpected this Easter and showcases how New World can help make sure we have all we need to enjoy the weekend – no matter what plans we have or how we want to celebrate.”
“The campaign highlights New World’s latest promotion – a collaboration with Pic’s Peanut Butter, to produce the new Gooey Peanut Butter Choc Cross Buns.”
“The campaign, which follows a father preparing for relaxed Easter weekend with his family, shows how New World’s in-store solutions ensure New Zealanders have all they need for any last-minute Easter celebrations.
“The campaign also highlights New World’s latest promotion – a collaboration with another New Zealand favourite, Pic’s Peanut Butter, to produce the new Gooey Peanut Butter Choc Cross Buns.
New World Head of Marketing and CX, Pippa Prain says: “It’s been a challenging time for Kiwis recently and with Easter being a special holiday for many families in Aotearoa, now is an ideal time to get together. We want to help everyone celebrate the holiday, catch up with friends and family and keep Easter as easy as possible.
“We’re also proud to make Easter even better through our collaboration with Pic’s – who could’ve thought hot cross buns could get any more delicious?”
The campaign is integrated across TV, outdoor, digital/ web, social media, radio, PR, POS.
