Osmow's, the Mediterranean restaurant chain with 130 locations across North America, recently enlisted director Adeel Shamsi of Alfredo Films to create a new campaign dubbed 'Habibi.'
In conjunction with the upcoming FIFA World Cup in Qatar, the restaurant chain celebrates its status as the Official Middle Eastern and Mediterranean Restaurant Partner of Canada Soccer. Osmow's newest brand ambassador, Cyle Larin, stars in the 30-second spot directed by Alfredo Films' Adeel Shamsi. In addition to being a forward for the Canadian Men's National Team, he also plays club football for Club Brugge KV of the Belgian First Division, and is an avid fan of Osmow's.
The Osmow’s team created the concept for the spot, in association with Shamsi. “This spot is a perfect representation of Osmow’s love for soccer,” says President and Chief Marketing Officer, Bernadette Osmow. “We are thrilled to partner with Canada Soccer as Cyle and the rest of the Men’s National Team makes its first FIFA World Cup appearance in 36 years."
