\n7UP has introduced a remarkably innovative outdoor campaign with the aim of inspiring neighbors to eat together. Billboards that dispense Dastarkhwans have been installed in various locations with a wonderful message on them: let\u2019s eat together with our neighbors. Anybody can simply roll a new Dastarkhwan off the billboard and take it home.
\nThe insight behind this novel campaign was simple: In Ramadan, a time of spiritual reflection and communal harmony, traditionally brings people together from all walks of life to break their fast and share meals. However, after Ramadan in recent times, societal changes, including urbanization and socio-economic disparities, have led to a decline in the practice of communal gathering. Recognizing the importance of reviving this cherished tradition, 7UP launched the Togetherness Matters campaign.
\nThe initiative aims to reintroduce the concept of communal gathering by providing tearable mats that served both as advertisements and practical tools for sharing meals. These tearable mats, adorned with an amalgamation of modern and traditional designs, strike a balance between contemporary aesthetics and cultural heritage. Additionally, the messaging printed on the mats effectively convey the campaign\u2019s theme of togetherness.
\nInitially utilized as Out-of-Home (OOH) advertisements, the tearable mats serve a dual purpose, catching the attention of passersby while also encouraging community engagement. As the campaign progressed, the mats transitioned into practical tools for hosting communal gatherings, further reinforcing the message of togetherness.
\nThe campaign extended its reach beyond residential areas to include marginalized communities. By providing mats, 7UP aims to promote inclusivity and underscored the message that togetherness knows no boundaries.
\nPeople were encouraged to utilize the mats to host iftar gatherings and share their experiences on social media using the hashtag #TogethernessMatters.
\nThis user-generated content not only showcased the success of the initiative but also fostered a sense of community and connection among the audience. Spanned across five key strategic locations ensured widespread participation and engagement throughout the campaign period.
\n7UP Ramadan Togetherness Matters campaign successfully revive the spirit of communal iftars, fostering connections, spreading joy, and celebrating diversity. While continuing it through this innovative campaign, 7UP reaffirms its commitment to promoting togetherness and emphasizes the importance of community engagement, especially during the holy month & after Ramadan as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
