In Brazil since 2013, Oreo aims to provide joyful family connections. In 2020, the brand had the challenge of showing that its positioning Stay Playful is accessible and relevant for everyone.

Thus, the main objectives of the project were:

•Increase Brand Awareness and Consideration to establish Oreo as an iconic brand, with a clear socially and culturally connected purpose;

•Present an idea capable to generate real family connections on Father's Day, with a meaningful and PRable content;

•Promote reflection about the importance of DE&I, by fomenting the idea: for the world to be playful, it must be playful for everyone.

For the world to be playful, it must to be playful for everyone.

Oreo used its reach and iconicity to promote reflection on DE&I, showing how any story can be rewritten with more inclusive and contemporary values, so that every child has a tale to inspire its own reality.

On Father’s Day, Oreo invited 3 fathers with legitimacy on DE&I to retell 3 classics:

RAPUNZEL

A story about Racial diversity, told by actor Lazaro Ramos - father of black children João and Maria.

JACK AND THE BEANSTALK

Twisted into a tale about PWD accessibility, narrated by chef Henrique Fogaça - loving father of PWD Olivia.

THE UGLY DUCKLING

Reframed with LGBTQIA+ view, with fashion stylist Alexandre Herchcovitch - adoptive father of Ben and Fernando.

A project that had accessibility and inclusion at its core, with creatives like audiobooks on Spotify, animated subtitled cartoons on YouTube and WhatsApp free content.

Oreo, a globally consolidated brand, had the challenge to become an iconic brand in Brazil, by creating a real connection with Millennial parents (BG 18-34 YO).

INSIGHT
