In a bold departure from the typical emotional storytelling seen in Ramadan ads, Pizza Hut Indonesia has launched an unconventional two-hour commercial titled “NON-STOP SERU 2 JAM BARENG DIP & CRUNCH.” The ad, aimed at breaking through the competitive food and beverage market during the holy month, takes a lighthearted approach, prioritizing humor and togetherness over sentimentality.
The campaign features a continuous, comedic loop centered around Pizza Hut’s signature 1-metre LIMO Pizza and the newly introduced Dip & Crunch. The playful format and catchy jingle have already resonated strongly with viewers, gaining significant attention and engagement in just two weeks.
Pizza Hut Indonesia’s creative decision to break from tradition is proving successful, showing that unconventional advertising can cut through the noise in an oversaturated market. The campaign reflects the Ramadan tradition of extended time spent with family and friends, aligning with the spirit of togetherness while delivering the brand’s message in an unexpected and refreshing way.
Astari Fitriani, Senior Brand & Innovation Manager at Pizza Hut Indonesia, explained the rationale behind the campaign: “As a brand with a 40-year presence in Indonesia, we constantly seek to stay relevant by understanding how Indonesians experience Ramadan. This year, we’ve translated that understanding into a distinctive, creative approach to break through the clutter.”
Fitriani added that while the extended ad format might seem like a risky move, the overwhelmingly positive audience response has been encouraging. “It pushes us as a brand to innovate, challenge the norm, and not just settle for conventional strategies,” she said.
Pizza Hut Indonesia’s unique campaign is a testament to the power of bold, culturally relevant marketing choices in today’s crowded advertising landscape.
