MBM backs The Sallys

AUCKLAND, Today: Digital media agency MBM has launched an Edmonds & Chelsea partnership with TVNZ, bringing together the two iconic Kiwi baking brands to help our vulnerable communities.

Starring Seven Sharp’s Hilary Barry, the campaign Baking for Better aims to inspire Kiwis to get in the kitchen to bake Barry’s “secret recipes” (scroll down for the link), which can be unlocked weekly at www.bakingforbetter.co.nz via a donation to the Salvation Army.

This is the first time the Edmonds and Chelsea brands have come together with a fully integrated brand campaign across TV, digital, social, OOH and instore media.

Edmonds & Chelsea marketing manager Angela Monk said: “The campaign is all about helping Kiwis who need it most, made possible by Edmonds and Chelsea’s partnership with The Salvation Army, who help support over 120,000 Kiwis every year.”

“Food is often the first reason people come to The Salvation Army for help, so being part of this inspiring campaign made sense to us.”

Salvation Army head of corporate partnerships Vanessa Ronan-Pearce said: “Food is often the first reason people come to The Salvation Army for help, so being part of this inspiring campaign just made sense to us.”

Hilary Barry said: “TVNZ 1 viewers know I love to bake, so when Chelsea and Edmonds challenged me to ‘bake for better’, I told them to sign me up!”

MBM business director Sian Kitchen said: “Bringing these two iconic brands together through a partnership with TVNZ has been a fantastic journey.

“Joining up with TVNZ enabled us to maximise scale across multiple platforms, in order to share how Edmonds and Chelsea are giving back to Aotearoa.”

The recipes appear on Tuesday nights during Seven Sharp.
