Anija, a consumer brand of the world's largest dairy processor, recently launched special-edition AR packaging that shares a taste of New Zealand with consumers in China.

The limited-edition packaging makes it possible for consumers to scan a QR code on the package and see vibrant New Zealand scenery come to life before their eyes in the form of a 720-degree [panoramic view](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-augmented-reality-mural). Some of the Anija products that can be found with AR packaging include whole milk, skim milk and the Zhuo Sunshine Kiwi Milk.

The #getNZonthemap campaign comes as part of a push to bring awareness to the fact that New Zealand is disappearing on many world maps. This cross-border campaign from Fonterra, a cooperative owned by New Zealand dairy farmers, is playing a part in supporting New Zealand's national image.
