YAZOO, and its official distribution partner, GM Marketing, have made plans to visit Queen’s University Belfast Freshers Fair on September 19th , University College Dublin on 25th September, CastleCourt’s student event on September 26th, and Trinity College Dublin on October 1st.

 

“YAZOO is on a mission to refresh freshers across the island of Ireland this September”, explained Kaitlyn Martin, Marketing Manager, GM Marketing. “We have lots of ways for students to take a break from their busy schedules and inject some excitement into their day. Our YAZOO team will bring lots of fun as well as offering chances to play games and taste the delicious YAZOO drinks. We will have our tasty strawberry, banana and chocolate YAZOO flavours at the events for everyone to enjoy.”

 

The YAZOO team will invite students to spin a wheel for prizes as well as offering a cashback incentive.

Kaitlyn continued: “The YAZOO ‘Spin The Wheel’ game will give players the chance to win some cool merchandise plus there will be a digital voucher that includes a cash back on the next purchase of YAZOO 400ml – we know students like a good money-saving deal.”

 

YAZOO currently has a 31.1% share of the flavoured milk market, with a brand value of £80.8m** and market penetration of 12.3%***.

 

Alexandra Heal, Brand Manager at YAZOO, said: “We are so excited to be visiting universities and student events across the island of Ireland this September. Our aim is to bring some much-needed entertainment to students and to remind them how important it is to take time out to relax and refresh with a cool drink of YAZOO.

 

“As well as giving away lots of prizes and cash back on your next YAZOO purchase, we are working with influencer and Socially Awkward podcast host, Brandon Caulfield to bring even more fun to our activity.

 

“We know that YAZOO is a popular drink on the island of Ireland and we hope to introduce our incredible range to even more people and find some new fans. Make sure you say hello to the YAZOO team and get your hands on some chocolate, banana and strawberry YAZOO on us.”

 

Parkour expert and Britain’s Got Talent contestant, George McGowan, was enlisted to help shake up the mundane as he performed tricks for students to help launch the campaign.

“YAZOO is one of my go-to milk drinks”, said George. “It keeps me refreshed throughout the day and I find it really hits the spot when I take a break from doing all of the high-octane, action-packed tricks.”

 

George, who performs stunts for various global TV shows, continued: “It was a pleasure working with YAZOO to help brighten up the day for students across the island of Ireland, it’s important to prioritise fun amongst all of the hard work.”
