The Challenge
Canadian 2 For 1 Pizza is an established household name, but its visibility had plateaued. The brand needed to rework its messaging and reintroduce itself to a younger market that prizes local flavours, sustainability and brands that stay active.
The fast-food space is crowded with legacy giants and trendy new entrants. Canadian 2 For 1 Pizza brought in Grow Public Relations to shed an outdated image and prove the brand still mattered in Singapore, which meant cutting through the noise and shifting how people saw it.
124
Pieces of Media Coverage Across 33 Media Titles
The 19-month campaign combined 38 articles, 4 radio interviews and 77 social media placements across executive profiling, product launches and partnerships
What we did
Grow Public Relations ran a 19-month campaign in Singapore, from March 2023 to October 2024, built on three pillars: executive profiling, product innovation and strategic partnerships.
First, we put CEO Mohamed Abdullah forward as the face of the brand. We secured executive profiles on his turnaround of the business, including the Money FM 89.3 Mind Your Business podcast and The Everyday People of Singapore.
Second, we drove interest through product and packaging stories. We announced the move to eco-friendly TRIA stackable pizza boxes in QSR Media, and launched the Singapore-inspired Hainanese Chicken Rice Pizza and Milo Churros for National Day, earning a review in Alvinology and a listicle placement on Burpple.
Third, we built affinity through partnerships and community work. We announced the tie-up with the Football Association of Singapore for the Singapore Premier League on Money FM 89.3, ran a football giveaway with Buzz Beat Media, and highlighted the adoption of beavers at Mandai Wildlife Reserve, covered by The Scribbling Geek.
The Results
The campaign secured 124 pieces of media coverage across eight activations. That broke down into 38 articles, 4 radio interviews and 77 social media placements, spanning 33 distinct media titles and 15 KOLs.
The coverage also placed the brand inside the national business conversation about the pizza market, with features in The Straits Times and Lianhe Zaobao. CEO Mohamed Abdullah noted a clear resurgence in the brand's visibility, particularly at trade events, a sign that the public and industry partners were engaged with Canadian 2 For 1 Pizza again.

What is a brand revitalisation campaign in PR?
A brand revitalisation campaign is a sustained PR programme that refreshes how the public sees an established brand and reintroduces it to a new audience. For Canadian 2 For 1 Pizza, a household name whose visibility had plateaued, Grow Public Relations built a 19-month campaign on three pillars: profiling CEO Mohamed Abdullah, launching bold new products such as the Hainanese Chicken Rice Pizza, and announcing partnerships like the tie-up with the Football Association of Singapore. The aim is to shed an outdated image and prove relevance, using a run of varied stories rather than one announcement.
How long does a brand revitalisation campaign take?
A brand revitalisation campaign usually runs over many months, because changing perception takes a sustained run of stories rather than a single launch. Grow Public Relations ran the Canadian 2 For 1 Pizza campaign for 19 months, from March 2023 to October 2024, across eight separate activations. That length let the brand move through executive profiling, product launches such as the Milo Churros for National Day, and partnership and community announcements, each building on the last. A longer timeline gives a legacy brand the room to reintroduce itself properly and to reach a younger audience with real depth.
