Laura McQuarrie — February 9, 2022 — Marketing
This Valentine's Day, McCain Fries and Heinz Ketchup are "stepping out as Canada's newest power couple" and they are letting people know their love for one another with big billboards. This perfect food pairing is being shared with the world online and offline in the form of social shares and billboards in front of the McCain and Heinz corporate headquarters in Toronto. Fans can get a taste of the sweet words being sent from one brand to another, and they reiterate the fact that ketchup and fries just work better together.
As Daniel Gotlib, Associate Director, Brand Building & Innovation at Heinz humorously notes, "Things seem to be moving really fast for this couple. Which is funny, because Heinz Ketchup is notoriously slow."
