Says Soraya Cottin, chief marketing officer, Whittaker’s: “New Zealanders have long loved Whittaker’s chocolate, and many have experienced the distinctive approach we take in crafting chocolate, but we don’t take this for granted. We’re constantly innovating to see how we can keep Chocolate Lovers coming back to us and to encourage new Chocolate Lovers to experience our product, because when they do, they love it.”
Says Ryan Jordan, head of strategy, Bastion Shine: “There’s people who like chocolate, and then there’s people who love it. And Whittaker’s is a brand for real Chocolate Lovers, including those who don’t know it yet. We wanted to create a brand platform that would allow us to talk directly to people who were in the know and reflect back the intimate behaviours and intricate rituals they have with Whittaker’s chocolate.”
