DUSSELDORF, GERMANY – Newsaktuell – 24 November 2020 – The wholesaler METRO/MAKRO has launched an
extensive campaign on TV and online, which will be shown across the globe. METRO/MAKRO

an opportunity for a pleasant respite from the challenges of their everyday lives
during lockdown.

The wholesaler METRO/MAKRO has launched an extensive campaign on TV and online, which will be shown across the globe. METRO/MAKRO wants to support the gastronomy sector, while at the same time showing everyone an opportunity for a pleasant respite from the challenges of their everyday lives during lockdown.

The objective of the
global campaign “Give your kitchen a break” is to encourage as many people as
possible to order their menu for this year’s festive season at a restaurant
near them. Following recent months, during which daily life – including all its
new and old challenges — has taken place in people’s homes for most of the
time, now at least the kitchen at home gets a break. On the other hand, the
global COVID-19 pandemic has already led to high revenue losses in the hospitality
industry this year. That’s why, by launching this campaign, METRO aims to further
support the food service industry.

Gisele Musa, VP/Global Director Branding METRO AG,: “Usually our communication is targeting our
professional customers, but with #GiveYourKitchenABreak we stretched our
audience, also in terms of media spent, to connect with the general public. Because
of the pandemic, the gastronomy business is having the hardest time ever; but also,
people are fed up with their lockdown home situation. That’s why we send out an
invitation to the whole society to play a role, take a break and show their
support while enjoying their Christmas menu from independent restaurants. It
allows gastronomy to stay in business and people can still enjoy all the
choices around them. A perfect combination for a special Christmas in this
special year.”
