The agency’s first work since winning the account.
The a2 Milk Company has launched a new brand platform, ‘Only a2 Will Do’, celebrating how people can thrive when drinking a2 Milk, which is naturally free from A1 protein.
Launching the first campaign within the framework of the new brand platform, a2 Milk introduces 'Tough Tummies'. This integrated campaign celebrates a2 Milk’s natural absence of the A1 protein found in most conventional milk.
Created by BMF, the creative agency’s first work since winning the account, the campaign shows life through the everyday heroism of stomachs.
Because however tough tummies may seem, sometimes it is the sensitivity to a protein commonly found in milk, the A1 protein, that stops people from being able to enjoy the everyday goodness of dairy.
‘Tough Tummies’ will be rolled out across TV, OOH, social, and programmatic.
The a2 Milk Company CMO Edith Bailey said milk drinkers who have sensitive stomachs may reduce or stop drinking milk altogether to free themselves of discomfort.
"But a2 Milk is real milk from carefully selected cows that naturally produce only the A2 protein and no A1. It is the A1 protein found in most milk today that may negatively impact digestive comfort for some people," she said.
"We wanted to feature real tummies, ‘Tough Tummies’, to celebrate how we can thrive with a2 Milk.”
BMF creative director Harry Stanford said a2 Milk may be beneficial for some people who are sensitive to the A1 protein.
"So seeing the world from a tummy’s view was the perfect way to launch our new long idea. A whole range of authentic Aussie tummies living their best lives," he said.
