A 360-degree campaign spanning Greece’s busiest travel retail locations during the peak summer holiday season includes high-profile activations taking place at airports in Athens, Thessaloniki, Rhodes, Heraklion, Kos and Chania.
A major focus of the activations is tasting tables. Enhanced in-store branding will further reinforce awareness and create a standout brand presence across participating airports.
To maximise visibility, the campaign extends beyond the retail environment, through exclusive experiences developed in partnership with Avolta. Through August to October, members of the Club Avolta loyalty programme can enjoy complimentary entry to Liknon, the home of Metaxa on the island of Samos. They will also be invited to enjoy a complimentary cocktail at participating Greek domestic bars during August, strengthening engagement beyond the point of purchase.
“Travel retail represents a unique opportunity to introduce consumers to the world of Metaxa, at a time when they are most open to discovery,” said Rémy Cointreau Marketing Director Global Travel Retail Alice Hoffmann.
“We know that today’s travellers are seeking premium, authentic products with a genuine sense of provenance. This integrated summer campaign combines the launch of our new Metaxa 12 Stars packaging with immersive tasting experiences and exclusive rewards that bring the brand’s Greek heritage to life.
“By creating meaningful moments of discovery throughout the traveller journey, we are building long-term affinity with the brand, while reinforcing Metaxa’s premium positioning in travel retail."
