Well-bread

AUCKLAND, Today: George Weston Foods, via Proximity NZ, has launched an energetic new campaign, Supercharged Kids, that shows how much kids can pack into their day with the help of Tip Top Supersoft … and their very own personal assistant. 

Proximity CCO James Mok said: “Tip Top Supersoft is New Zealand’s market-leading white bread and a brand that has been trusted for 65 years to become the go-to fuel for busy families.

“Kids love the taste and parents love the convenience. It’s been a rare and harmonious balance. 

“As eating habits change, Proximity was briefed to develop a positioning that reinforces Tip Top Supersoft’s trusted role in helping parents help their kids’ to thrive.

“With research revealing New Zealand parents are motivated to give their kids the best foundation for their future, the super-soft bread that supercharges kids’ potential became the cornerstone of the strategy.

“A brilliant performance by a wee nine-year-old girl gave the campaign all the energy we needed. Finding the right talent was a magical ingredient.”

“The campaign playfully talks to both kids and parents and shows what an empowered young mind can achieve with support from their personal assistant, aka Mum. It’s a kid’s life reimagined in a grown-up’s context.

“We want parents to believe their kid’s need the best fuel to help them thrive so we represented their kid’s busy lives as something all adults can relate to.

“A brilliant performance by a wee nine-year-old girl gave the campaign all the energy we needed. Finding the right talent was a magical ingredient.”

GWF Baking marketing GM Victoria McCrea said: “With Tip Top bread being in so many Kiwi homes how we communicate and tap into Kiwi families is important.

“Proximity pushed us as a team on this creative in terms of nailing our insight to underpin it, and trusting them fully around the production process and we are very proud of the final product.”

The campaign is currently rolling out across digital video, broadcast and OOH.
