Wonderful Halos Celebrates Largest Integrated Marketing Campaign in Five Years; Jennifer Hirano and Bobby Pearce Discuss



LOS ANGELES, CA - Wonderful Halos, one of America’s most-loved healthy snack brands, launched its first national integrated marketing campaign in five years, Hands Off My Halos, designed specifically for the big screen. The two new commercials highlight Wonderful Halos as an irresistible snack both kids and parents love by capturing the chaos that unfolds when a parent takes their child’s last Halos Mandarin. Whether it’s reporting their mom to the IRS or cutting the brake lines on their dad’s car, it’s clear that kids will go to extreme lengths if anyone tries to take their favorite snack.

“We are thrilled to blend this playful creative with laugh-out-loud moments to show just how much both kids and parents love Wonderful Halos,” said Jennifer Hirano, Vice President of Marketing, The Wonderful Company. “Parents are overwhelmed with decisions every day and feel especially pressured when it comes to selecting what they are feeding their kids. Halos are always a win as a healthy, sweet snack for kids and parents alike—just don’t take the last one!”

As a press release detailed, Wonderful Halos are the world’s sweetest Mandarins and are also seedless and easy to peel, making them a tasty and healthy snack, whether they are enjoyed at home or on-the-go.
