HOW WE GOT THERE
B2B PR CAMPAIGN
We compiled a targeted database of over 400 contacts focusing on high end Japanese restaurants like Tetsuya’s, Sokyo, Toko and Sake alongside niche meat retailers such as Vic’s Meats.
Introducing such a high price and imported meat product was a considerable challenge, however leveraging our network of contacts in the food, beverage and hospitality space meant that Papaya secured celebrity chef Adam Liaw to host the event alongside an impressive chef and media turnout. Arigatō!
PR MARKETING CAMPAIGN
Papaya leveraged relationships with media to create a highly tailored campaign targeting media both from consumer and trade publications. Valuable TV cooking segments, features in Broadsheet and multiple trade media hits were secured.
EVENT PHOTOGRAPHY
As part of the event for Japanese Wagyu we captured all aspects of the event including, important guests, candids of invitees, main events and key shots for media. We supplied the client a library of over 150 high res images for them to use as they wish.
