Zhyvynka — a new kind of yogurt

The challenge

How do we raise awareness of Greek yogurt?

Danone is a leading international food company, present in 130 countries. Its range includes Zhyvynka yogurts, which stand out for their high content of live cultures. This time the company was launching a new format — Greek yogurt — and needed a high-quality promo that would explain what makes the product special.

The result

Gut flora — your Achilles' heel

We knew this campaign had to tell the story in an engaging way, through associations. While brainstorming, the team decided to build the story around the word “Greek”. That gave us the first hook — the Achilles' heel — to catch the viewer and flag the problem. Only later does it become clear that the focus is on the new product format: Greek. Visually, we chose appealing images and colors that inspire trust and feel cozy. On screen: a family atmosphere, a dad and son spending time together. That made it easy to show not only the yogurt's Greek origin, but how it helps support gut flora.
