Introducing UAE to the e-truck evolution

How FAMCO Planned to Drive Innovation in the UAE Region

FAMCO (Al-Futtaim Automotive and Machinery Company) is a prominent distributor of heavy-duty commercial equipment and vehicles in the UAE market. As the exclusive partner and sole distributor of Volvo in the country, FAMCO plays a key role in bringing Volvo's innovative products to the region. When Volvo and FAMCO decided to launch the Volvo Electric Truck Range for the first time in the MENA region, they knew a grand arrival was essential. The task was how to make it happen.

Step-by-Step to a Green Future

For the inaugural launch of Volvo’s electric truck range in the MENA region, we decided to highlight the ‘zero-emission heavy-duty truck range’ as the unique selling point. We adopted a staggered approach to build anticipation, leading up to the grand reveal of the truck and outlining the steps to go electric.

Volvo Rolls Into the Region in Grand Style

We structured the reveal in phases, guiding the audience from recognizing the need for sustainable transport to presenting the solution, which included:

Build-up: Laying the foundation with teasers and countdowns, using engaging communication to generate excitement.

Pre-Launch: We leveraged content from other international launches to crystallize the location and time of the UAE launch.

Launch: This phase showcased the grandeur of the event and delivered impact by unveiling the truck, closing the loop on the build-up.

Sustenance: The final phase provided information on the perks of going electric and seamlessly integrated it into day-to-day communication.

A Niche Product Transformed into a Lifestyle Choice

Through strategic insight & creative execution, we succeeded in reshaping the conversation around plant-based beverage choices and established So Good’s status as a trusted and exciting brand.

In a symphony of liberation and flavor, the #FeelsSoGood campaign echoed a simple truth: freedom in choices truly feels so good.
