Oui Oui Baguette by Renault Treated Drivers to Free Baguettes

— December 1, 2025 — Autos
For a limited time in November, the Oui Oui Baguette by Renault campaign gave Renault 5 E-Tech electric car owners the chance to pick up one free baguette per day at Maison Kayser bakeries in France. Customers only needed to scan a QR code from the My Renault app to claim their complimentary bread, which slots into the electric car's built-in handwoven wicker bread holder.

This partnership between Renault and Maison Kayser concluded with a drive-through pop-up experience in central Paris, where Renault 5 E-Tech owners could collect their baguettes without leaving their cars. In all, this celebration of national pride highlighted two quintessentially French creations: Renault's domestically manufactured EV and Maison Kayser's artisanal bread crafted from French wheat.

  3. Drive-through Pop-ups — Temporary drive-through installations are emerging as a novel way for brands to interact with customers, providing convenience and experiential engagement at scale.

Industry Implications

  2. Artisanal Food Retail — Partnerships with non-food industries offer artisanal food brands new promotional avenues and cross-industry visibility, increasing their appeal to diverse customer bases.
  3. Mobile App Development — Mobile apps that enable easy access to promotional offers are becoming critical tools for businesses seeking to bridge physical and digital customer engagement.
