Anheuser-Busch has been popular for creating stronger communities by infusing meaningful moments altogether. With such high brand salience, AB InBev followed a very unique approach to address the increasing death rates in Brazil caused by impaired driving through their “Responsible Billboards” in collaboration with Agencia Africa. To highlight the magnitude of the campaign, the distribution trucks transformed themselves into something very different.
The difference took place on the roads by showing two different parts of the truck. The first part of the truck, where the driver sat was painted with a soda or non-alcoholic brand whereas the trailer of the truck carried the identity of AB InBev’s beer brands. Such notable contrast was made for showing a powerful message that wherever the driver was, alcohol could not be there. This idea was executed to raise awareness of responsible driving.

Undoubtedly, this campaign is a brilliant example of how each element of the distribution process was utilized to reach out to a bigger crowd.
