FanTASTIC!
                     

A pot of Tastic Rice prepared with enthusiastic hands for brand conscious and appreciative ladies all over South Africa – what a recipe for success!

Primedia Face 2 Face have put together a Community Events Marketing (CEM) campaign for Tiger Food Brands on Tastic Rice to re-inforce the conviction in consumers’ minds that Tastic Rice, is “Perfect. Every time.”

Primedia Face 2 Face offered Tiger Food Brands the opportunity to entrench Tastic Rice in the minds and hearts of the community through sponsorship of events such as weddings, women’s church groups, women’s gatherings and cultural ceremonies through a national Community Events Marketing campaign.

Tastic Rice was afforded the opportunity to take ownership of the Community Events by creating a brand experience by branding gazebo’s, uniforms, tablecloths and aprons. The traditional Tastic Rice uniforms are still the talk of the town…

It is customary for large numbers of people to attend these functions, thus giving manufacturers the opportunity to reach these people by sponsoring these events. Although this may seem an unusual practice by Western Cultural standards, this type of sponsorship is greatly appreciated because it provides additional “hands” and equipment at these large functions and adds status to the events within the community. Most events are generated by potential hosts contacting F2F after attending a CEM event.

 

“Tastic is proud to take the initiative in giving something back to the community. This is in line with the brand values of caring, respect and trust” – Naresh Singh, Tastic Rice Marketing Director.

The outcomes of the campaign were re-affirmation of love for Tastic Rice as the trusted quality rice which cares for me and my community.

The total number of consumers reached through the Tastic Rice Community Events equated to over 58 000 direct face 2 face interactive contacts over a 6 month period.

Tasteful, you say? We’d call it FanTASTIC!
