Heinz: Stadium Heroes

Top 6: January 17th 2024
There is only one thing Italians love as much as their food, and that is football. Every match comes with its unique and magical rituals whether in a stadium, at home, or restaurant. It’s undeniable that, in Italy, the most recognized association with football is the sandwich. It is this special relationship that inspired Heinz’s new brand platform for sauces - “Proud Sponsor of Calcio Mangiato” - created by DUDE Milan. “Calcio Mangiato” means “Eaten Football”, which links the brand to all those moments where the football world meets the food world, starting with the iconic ritual of the pre- or post-match sandwich consumed outside the stadium. At the heart of this ritual are Mauro, Sofia, and Ruggiero – the sandwich makers and protagonists of the Stadium Heroes activation and “Proud Sponsor of Calcio Mangiato” campaign. It highlights the paradox of their proximity to their football team at San Siro every Sunday, yet being unable to go inside the stadium and enjoy a game as football lovers. Heinz gave the sandwich makers the opportunity to step inside the stadium for the first time in their career to watch a game and be part of the crowd of fans. The entire stadium thanked them with a standing ovation and special announcement over the speakers. To ensure the seamless continuation of the sandwich-making tradition, and to make sure that no-one went hungry, Heinz arranged for three Italian chef influencers to take over and keep the sandwiches flowing.
