Today is World Coconut Day, and there's no better way to celebrate than to surprise a loved one with a mailed package containing the fruit -- this, is the premise behind Vita Coco's latest campaign, which has been cleverly dubbed Coconotes.
This campaign, run by the coconut water brand, invites consumers to ship a package containing a coconut and a bottle of Vita Coconut's coconut water, to an unsuspecting loved one. The packages arrive by mail, and consumers are able to attach a little personalized note.
According to the brand, this surprise-and-delight style campaign encourages consumers to make connections during a time when its harder to see one another. Vita Coco hopes the surprise coconut will brighten a loved one's day.
