¡Marte! For Another Planet

Lavazza, the leading Italian coffee company, has unveiled ¡Marte! For Another Planet: the brand-new coffee product hat grows on Mars. It doesn't exist yet, but its name plays on Lavazza’s product range called ¡Tierra! as a fun feature to raise awareness about the importance of taking care of our planet. The Earth Day stunt includes a video presenting the product with the aim of highlighting Lavazza's commitment to teaching coffee producers how to breed coffee through sustainable farming practices and protect the only planet on which it grows: the Earth.

The digital activation takes viewers on a journey to Mars and features red beans that look as if they could have been grown in a Martian environment. Just when you think that ¡Marte! could be real, the video reveals that it’s not yet possible. The new campaign, through suspense and irony, reaffirms that Lavazza supports coffee farmers by fostering good agricultural practices to counter the effects of climate change, so that hopefully they won't have to grow coffee on Mars any time soon.
