Oishi | Cafe City Augmented Reality Campaign | Thailand

Thailand-based beverage company Oishi Group has added a fun digital element to its Oishi Green Tea product line that allows customers to experience augmented reality.

The green tea packages are now produced with a QR barcode. People can take their drink cartons to the ‘Oishi Café City’ via www.oishicafecity.com and discover the hidden virtual ingredients for a cooking game and discover the hidden virtual ingredients for a cooking game. The website also uses augmented reality elements to generate more interaction with users. Meanwhile, a television commercial by Y&R is being aired to drive traffic to the website.

Tan Passakornatee, managing director at Oishi Group, explains that the brand has always been popular among young people. The company has also released various campaigns to connect with the demographic, such as 'UHT Campaign' last year.

Tan believes one of the biggest challenges on the horizon will be producing new codes for the packaging each quarter to develop and grow the game. However, he is confident this is a good opportunity to provide a fun, problem-solving medium for young people in Thailand.
