Love Island

Emmi CAFFÈ LATTE x Love Island

With an increasingly competitive category consisting of some better-known and loved coffee brands, we needed to reinforce and protect Emmi CAFFÈ LATTE’s market position, ramp up awareness and stimulate product sales by partnering with a brand we knew our audience would love - Love Island 2022.

Case study

Through a partnership with perfectly-matched ingredients, and a carefully crafted and expertly served set of social engagement tactics, Emmi CAFFÈ LATTE kept the social iced coffee conversation alive for 8 weeks of the summer, to drive cut-through and relevance that would far outweigh what a traditional media-led approach could bring.

‘Fun-in-the-sun’ content – the kind of non-broadcast stuff we know our audience can’t get enough of. Our coffee-inspired games revealed islander interactions and insights fans hadn’t seen before – fuelled by same-day memes, competitions and teasers; all wrapped up in an instantly recognisable tropical livery, lively TOV and unwavering quality LOLs throughout.
