With the European Football Championships having kicked off this weekend, meat snack brand, Peperami, has launched a summer football campaign including on-pack promotion, the return of the Peperami Fanimal and a social media campaign with TheSPORTbible.

The promotion offers consumers the chance to win one of ten prizes of £1,600, as well as 2,950 mascot toys, the Peperami Fanimals.

The competition will run until the end of August.

The partnership with TheSPORTbible – said to be one of the largest communities for sports fans across the world – will allow Peperami to capitalise on this fan base.

The cross-platform partnership will feature a series of documentary videos each telling the story of a different football superfan and their preparations for the Euros.

Pavan Chandra, marketing, Peperami, commented: “The Euros is one of the world’s most watched sporting events and appeals to a very broad audience, but has particular resonance across our target market.

“The Fanimal promotion is always hugely popular – we previously ran it in 2006, 2010 and 2014 – and Peperami is the perfect snack to enjoy when watching the game.”
