Hasta La Motion!

Mainland, the New Zealand cheese brand, has introduced a new commercial, “New Tricks”, applying the “good things take time” motto to romantic relationships. The Mainland New Tricks commercial is continuous with years of heritage advertising focused on the idea that Mainland isn’t just a place, it’s a philosophy that good things take time. The Fonterra brand’s campaigns always relied upon stunning South Island landscapes, sweeping scores and a strong sense of storytelling which reflects company values rather than trying to force feed its audience. New Tricks continues this all as it tells of the lengths a man will go to woo his crush, no matter how old he or she is, and that all things; romance, brands and cheese can get finer with age.
