The Situation

Mucho Burrito had been running Cinco de Mayo promotions for many years and as a ‘Mexican’ brand this vital given the importance that the celebration has in Mexican culture. The company had been using various messages, imagery, and graphic treatments that were not successful in creating a Cinco asset that could be built on, year over year, like ‘Roll Up the Rim’.

 

Human Catalyst

Only Mexican burritos are right for Cinco de Mayo.

Our Solution

Yield Branding developed a campaign for the Cinco weekend that focused on the $5 burrito as the cornerstone of the promotion. The creative gave a positive nod visually to the pride of Mexican culture and her craftsmanship. The burrito ingredients were the key inspiration in making the idea come to life in a fresh and memorable way. The campaign channels included in-store POS, window banners and social ads all built around the idea of fresh ingredients tied back to Mexican heritage.
