KFC retail sauces brief

KFC retail sauces – a bundle for social occasions

WHAT

We need to create the ultimate trio-bundle of KFC retail sauces, an add-on that you can bring to any BBQ party, dinner, friends’ gathering to spice up the meal & the good vibes.

BACKGROUND

KFC has 3 sauces launched in retail – the famous garlic one, the garlic & tomato and now the American Dip. They are the perfect add-ons for any at-home meal, not only going perfectly with chicken recipes, but also any other dishes you may think of.

DETAILS

We want to present them as a KFC trio for at-home cooking (or ordering). This means that we need to create a system/packaging that could fit all 3, as well as present their names and the KFC brand cues (logo, 3 stripes). The 3 products below.

Deadline: 6th of April

HOW AND FOR WHOM

The packaging should be interesting and eye-candy, easy to carry – meaning you don’t need to put it in a bag, but rather be able to take it with one hand – acting as a set containing the 3 sauces. Its target audience is, of course, the retail customers, KFC consumers, but also youngsters or young adults that may want a cool add-on for a home party.

END GAME

We need a prototype design that can be implemented and manufactured. It will potentially be used in KFC’s influencer and community giveaways, as well as in-store.

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Recipient’s height: 150 mm, top to bottom.

Top (diagonal): 53 mm.

Recipient’s width: 70 mm, at the largest point.

AWARD

If there is an application selected to be implemented, the winning team receives a 1000 E award (500 E/person) on the behalf of #TheAlternativeSchool. The name of the contestants, their story & the school’s will be communicated within the package and in the press & Social Media, when the package will be officially launched.

IMPORTANT

Proposals that are degrading, humiliating, risky, tacky, aggressive, or offensive will not get shortlisted or selected for potential implementation.
