Our Project:

Hawthorn Store Opening 2020

 

Our Assignment:

2020 has been a difficult year for many of us, but it has not stopped the team from The Cookie Box stealing the hearts of cookie monsters all across the city.

In February, The Cookie Box, Melbourne’s first rustic artisan cookie shop, opened its doors on Chapel Street, Windsor and was an instant hit on the Melbourne sweet treat scene.

Fast forward eight months and owners Rod & Gabi brought their iconic cookies to Melbourne’s East, opening a second store on Glenferrie Road, Hawthorn.

The Cookie Box re-engaged FireWorks to assist with a PR Rollout and influencer sampling campaign that was once again a huge success! FireWorks generated incredible buzz and excitement in the lead up to the new store opening, along with a number of publicity outcomes.

Our Success:

Melbourne’s love for The Cookie Box and their sweet treats is well and truly established. The media, social media influencers and Melbourne foodies have all turned to these delicious cookies as the ultimate comfort food during Stage 4 COVID-19 Lockdown. FireWorks generated an enormous amount of publicity, particularly across Instagram, in the days leading up to the new store opening, on opening day and in the days that followed, too.
