The Tuna Language — Sidi Ali

From an unknown tuna brand to the most talked-about and award-winning one.

During Ramadan, the Super Bowl of advertising in Tunisia, Sidi Ali, a relatively unknown tuna brand, needed to break through category sameness.
We made Sidi Ali speak Tunisian culture by turning tuna into a language and rewriting dish names using the suffix “tonn”, meaning tuna in Tunisian dialect, the brand instantly felt familiar and relevant.
This category-first tone allowed Sidi Ali to steal the conversation from long-established competitors.

  • – Ranked 3rd among the most memorable ads during Ramadan.
  • – Jumped +7 positions in brand awareness.
  • – Reached #1 market share, overtaking a long-standing competitor.
  •  

From an unknown brand to the most talked-about tuna brand in a single Ramadan.
