Philadelphia cream cheese
has enlisted TV chef Andi Oliver and social-media influencer Poppy O'Toole in a new U.K. campaign.
Called “Philadelphia
Brunch,” the work was developed in partnership with creative agency Elvis and media agency Publicis Media, based on a strategic and creative platform
by Ogilvy.
To make customers feel more connected to the brand, Elvis set the brand's “You’ve Got A Friend in Philly" tag in a brunch setting.
Targeting
millennials, the activation centers on turning a meal into an extension of friendship, underscoring the partnership between Oliver and O'Toole.
Neale Horrigan, executive creative director,
Elvis, added: “We wanted to leverage Philly’s friendship platform to create a campaign that brings people together. Our aim was to showcase the joy that comes from spending time with
friends, in a lighthearted and positive way."
