Although the coming together of Dove and Dunkin' might seem like an unusual collaboration, the two brands are joining forces for this year's National Coffee Day to appeal to women who are "running on coffee and dry shampoo." This phrase can be found on tons of novelty t-shirts and coffee cups, as this pairing is recognized as a life hack for those with busy, hectic lives.
For National Coffee Day, Dove and Dunkin' are launching a co-branded pop-up event in New York City that will give people the chance to win a year's supply of Dunkin' coffee and Dove Dry Shampoo.
As Piyush Jain, Vice President of Haircare for Unilever, describes: "Social media has exploded with women sharing how coffee and dry shampoo are their secrets to getting up, out and on with their day... taking them from the gym, to the carpool, to the boardroom. We're excited to bring together this unlikely but perfect pairing."
