Nandos responds

In the right hand corner we have Nandos… and standing in the left at a whopping 6 foot and 300 pounds, ittttss Santam. These two brands have poked fun at one another this week in a series of web adverts. The result was that Santam challenged Nandos to donating food to the Joburg Children’s Home. Nandos rose to the occasion saying they would donate the food on Thursday (26 April) and that they would continue to do so for the rest of the year. Brilliant. They then released their web video response too. Have a look.

This is a great example of brand excellence and how quick the respective companies are to respond to one another. There is no time to waste anymore. Jump on the bandwagon the rest of you, this is how it must be done. BOOM! Plus the Joburg Children’s Home wins too, big up!

Santam responds to the Nandos spoof

Last week Nandos had a go at Santam’s insurance advert. It was sharp, witty and exactly what you would expect from the Nandos team. What we didn’t really expect was Santam to respond with something equally as good. Have a look at the response above. Brilliant, love it!

Nandos is at it again

Gotta give it to Nandos! Always at the forefront of all things trendy, controversial and clever! Here is their latest ad campaign… You might recognise the format from a certain bank advert on television

“Do you miss things? Overlook things that are right in front of you? No? Yes? Maybe? It’s part of the human condition – at least that’s what some Sir or another keeps banging on about.

Luckily, Nando’s new ad campaign is here to show you that the deliciousness is in the details. That, yes, Nando’s is about the best flame-grilled Peri-Peri chicken but that its menu has oh so many more mouthwatering options to choose from.
