Wirz and Migros raise a glass to "Dry January"

People who prefer a non-alcoholic drink to a glass of champagne often get skeptical looks. Nevertheless, more and more people are voluntarily switching to non-alcoholic alternatives. Migros is joining in and encouraging everyone to give up alcohol as part of «Dry January»—in its own, «typically Migros» way. To that end, Wirz is enlisting the help of a trendy bartender.

Non-alcoholic drinks have become increasingly important in recent years with the megatrend towards conscious and healthy living. Migros supports this development by offering its customers an extensive range of non-alcoholic drinks. True to the motto: Fine and varied drinks - without alcohol, but with taste and lots of fun. This is shown in four commercials for TV and online advertising, in which drinking "without" is just as much fun as "with".

Recipes from the trendy bartender

Wirz also developed the storylines and measures for social and influencer content: Zurich scene bartender Timmey created three Migros mocktails, which are presented in videos and can be remixed at home. In addition, a broad influencer campaign on all popular platforms encourages people to drink alcohol-free in "Dry January".

The campaign is running throughout Switzerland in "Dry January".
