What Was the Goal?
1. To remind ourselves after a long pause. Due to the war and disruptions in the production of Khladoprom Ice Cream Factory, it was necessary to draw attention to the brand and return it to active communication with the consumer.
2. To increase the loyalty of the middle and young audience during the sales season (June-August 2023). The main goal was to return love for the brand, especially among parents and children.
3. To emphasize the Ukrainian roots and emphasize the brand’s mission through the slogan: “Children are our future, and Khreshchatyk is where Ukraine is.”
Idea
We created a special project “Little Ukrainians – to Great Heroes” in the format of native integration on the radio. Every day on the air, children shared their drawings and words of support for our defenders, reinforcing the love for Khreshchatyk ice cream as a symbol of a happy childhood.
In parallel, we launched a summer marathon of children’s projects:
May: “Little Winners of a Great Country” – about children who overcome difficulties and believe in victory.
June: a project for Children’s Day with interactive content and gifts from the brand.
July: the legendary project “Plombiromania” – a large-scale competition for children and their parents with big prizes.
The uniqueness of the solution lay in the comprehensive integration at all levels: radio, social networks, interactive content, events for children with a focus on emotional unification through love for Khreshchatyk ice cream. The brand became a symbol of joy and support during the war.
Results
1. Significant increase in brand awareness: from May to August, the campaign was listened to and seen by more than 3 million users through integrated channels.
2. Positive audience response: thanks to emotional communication and support for children’s initiatives, the brand regained consumer trust and sympathy.
3. Record sales: seasonal demand for products grew by 20% compared to last year, which confirmed the correctness of the strategy.
