Holsten made Georgina Rodríguez its face in Saudi Arabia and built a campaign on a seeded rumour that she drops into a neighbourhood baqala for her Holsten, ending with her surprise appearance in a film shot in Riyadh.

التحدي
Holsten, a non-alcoholic malt drink, was seen as something you open only for big achievements. The brand wanted it to feel like an everyday treat without losing its premium image.
الفكرة
Under the line "Treat Yourself with a Holsten", the story ran as organic buzz before the hero film, set around a baqala and its characters, including Rajeev. It rolled out on Shahid, TikTok, Meta, cinemas and outdoor, and was extended into Saudi National Day 2025 with a sampling activation at Riyadh Boulevard.
النتائج
- M+C Saatchi Group's case page says the National Day extension handed out 18,000 samples.
