OVERVIEW

Description

After more than 50 years on the market, Onsala is the best known brand of sandwhich sausage in Sweden. Through the years, the package and logo design have been more or less the same, making it easily recognisable on the supermarket shelves.Now, the Onsala-sausage has been improved. It comes ready-sliced, and in a special, new package. No more need for sharp knives - even the children can make their own sausage-sandwiches, without the risk of losing a finger or two

Execution

The new sausage is exactly the same as the old one. The only difference is that it now is available as ready-sliced. Since the specific design of the Onsala-sausage is so well known, we show the famous old package in the advertising - instead of the new. The only difference is that the billboards, posters, ads, trolleys, buses etc showing the old sausage, were sliced.

Outcome

During the weeks of the campaign, the “sliced” advertising became the talk of the town. The ads fluttered in the wind on billboards, buses, subways and shopping-trolleys, and were frequently mentioned in press articles and on radio-shows.
