Burger King Brazil unveils the unique new Whopper Island rebranding approach with the help of advertising agency DM9 Brazil. The burger chain is aiming to rebrand the land between the Indian Ocean between Antarctica and Madagascar as Whopper Island from what was McDonald Island.
In a documentary-like campaign, the company shares that the reason behind this notion is that it deserves to be named after its burger as there is an active volcano on this island that aligns with its flame-grilled burgers. The narrator of this mock documentary notes, “A place with real fire cannot be called McDonald’s." The brand shares, Together, we will correct this historic mistake, transforming McDonald Island into the Whopper Island.”
