Examples of companies targeting


different Ethnic groups

In 2003, McDonalds started an ad


campaign for Spanish-speaking audiences
resulting in a 32% increase in sales for
the company.
They planned their strategies according to different communities like- transform their
menu for Indian market by introducing more vegetarian items and
removed beef from their menu as it would hurt the sentiments of
people in India.
McDonalds has gone beyond advertising to increase engagement
and loyalty within the Asian American community by supporting
key initiatives around education and Asian festivals that touch the
lives of thousands of Asian Americans.

Pepsis first multicultural campaign


was in 1948 for African Americans.
In 2009, Pepsi's "Refresh Anthem," which
debuted during the Super Bowl featured a collage
of images from the '60s and today that celebrates
generations past and present, where both whites
and blacks were shown with Bob Dylan and
Will.i.am taking turns singing the Dylan classic,
"Forever Young," each in his signature style.

Hispanics and African-Americans are


expected to drive 70% of beer growth from
2000 to 2020, according to industry
estimates cited by Heineken USA.
As a result, Heinekens revival in the US
started with multicultural brands such as Sol
and Tecate becoming popular with secondand third- generation Mexican immigrants.
