Brief Explanation

During an unsettling time in Egypt, people stopped going to the McDonald's store; meanwhile the fast food chain brand had just released new sandwiches that bring flavors from all over the world. We created an activation where 4 contenders would challenge the authenticity of the McDonald's taste. Through engagement on social media platforms and on-ground activations, people revisited the store, and that translated into sales.
