Event

A campaign launch to break stereotypes

Challenge

Objectives

Solutions

The French remain hesitant about legumes, despite nutritional recommendations. Their image still lacks appeal, seen as complicated to cook, unglamorous, and associated with bland food.

Vivien Paille needed to break these stereotypes to assert its leadership in the category and position legumes as an everyday go-to.

-Create a key moment around the launch of the “Sec is Good” campaign

-Reconcile pleasure, modernity, and legumes

-Generate press and influencer visibility

-Reach a younger audience aware of sustainable food issues

-Strengthen the brand’s awareness among journalists and influencers

Oxygen designed an immersive Paris event as a sensory celebration of the "Sec Appeal" of legumes.
Bringing together media, influencers, and a committed chef, the agency orchestrated a full-scale activation combining content, tasting, and creative staging, to make “sec” rhyme with “sexy.”

    Choice of venue : Nosso restaurant, a rising star in the Parisian dining scene, known for its zero-waste, creative cuisine aligned with the brand’s values
