Ricola Keeps Fans Cheering For World Cup Teams

World Cup excitement is spreading across North America — and Ricola wants fans to cheer with strong voices.  

That's the strategy behind its latest campaign from Fuse Create, which crosses borders, teams and rivalries.

Ricola is rolling out a North-America-wide program that includes influencer partnerships across Canada and sample activations during matches in Toronto and Vancouver. 

In addition, a media campaign consisting of out-of-home ads, wild postings, digital placements and a Weather Network app are strategically placed around U.S. and Canadian match locations. 

“With the World Cup coming to North America, we saw a rare chance for Ricola, a brand built for everyday occasions like cheering, to do more than simply participate in a cultural moment — we could own it. The insight was simple: the most iconic cheer in football is ‘Olé,’ and with a single letter change, Ricola becomes that chant,” Steve Miller, executive creative director, Fuse Create, told Agency Daily
