Cheeky Candy Campaigns

This Kinder Bueno Campaign Targets Millennial and Gen Z Consumers

This Kinder Bueno campaign is being run by Ferrero UK to help catch the attention of Millennial and Gen Z consumers with its cheeky encouragement to enjoy a treat. The campaign features the tagline, 'Why be basic, when you can be bueno' as a nod to the candy bar while also incorporating terms used by youth. The campaign will include a TV advertisement alongside video, social and broadcast video on demand (BVOD) thanks to a £6-million investment by the brand.

A spokesperson from Ferrero UK spoke on the new Kinder Bueno campaign saying, "Our new campaign aims to amplify Kinder Bueno’s presence to ensure it continues to be a must-stock item for all convenience retailers. It’s a popular product and we want to maintain sales momentum by putting Kinder Bueno front of mind among younger shoppers."
