Gomes da Costa
Mac&Tuna:
The Perfect Match
When Gomes da Costa briefed us for their new Tuna campaign, they asked for a straight and simple message. So we created a catchy tune, one that repeats the product’s name all over the track.
But the main theme for the campaign came directly from the public. We monitored people’s conversations on Social Media and identified that one of the main go-to (and most loved) Tuna recipes is Tuna & Pasta (Atum & Macarrão).
So, we created this love story between Pasta and Tuna, or as we called, Mac&Tuna, a perfect match.
And to make it all official, we created the #macatum (macarrão + atum, or mac & tuna)
The campaign’s concept was presented to the public through a Hero Movie,
and the conversation about #macatum was started through various Food Influencers’ channels.

The campaign also brought two of the main players in Brazil: Tastemade’s and Tudo Gostoso’s recipes with the Tuna & Pasta combination to the highlight.
In the end, Gomes da Costa’s social media completed the public’s journey, presenting lots of new #macatum recipes with those beautiful images we produced.
