Objective To create an omni-channel platform where Ben’s Original could champion personal and professional narratives from community chefs demonstrating paths to purpose and possibility. This campaign launched Ben’s Original global rebrand as a vehicle for community chefs to share their stories of achievement and discovering passions, the importance of a diverse food culture and industry, their connection to the purpose work of the brand (SATT Fund, Greenville), the rice recipes that always feel like home, and legacies that are built to last in the kitchen. The campaign anchored the global initiative “We are all original recipes.”
