Kettle Chips | Commerce Parading as Entertainment | Australia

Potato chips brand Kettle Chips has developed a new sexy TV campaign to promote the launch of the brand in Australia.

Kettle Chips | Commerce Parading as Entertainment | Australia
Holding company SnackBrands has appointed creative agency Bulldozer Inc for the launch.

Founder and creative director of Bulldozer Andy McKeon explained the client's brief: “Do an ad beer drinkers will like. Reposition the chip as prestigious but laconic Australian.” Most importantly “use hot chicks.”

The ad tells a moral tale on ‘patience’ being a virtue and as promised the commercial uses beautiful models in beachwear, and they are brainy, too.

The plot parallels the children fable The Hare and the Tortoise to the secret goodness of the slow-cooked Kettle Chips.

The campaign is debuting during the NRL Grand Final, which is one of the most watched events in Australia.
