“In a fragmented media landscape, Love Island’s meteoric success highlights how our target market still craves a shared experience,” said SHS’s head of brand for WKD, Alison Gray. “In the ‘always on’ world of young adults, linking with the show gives WKD the opportunity to drive relevant messaging to our target audience 24/7.”
Last January, Coca-Cola European Partners enlisted former Love Island contestant Ovie Soko as an ambassador for its Diet Coke brand in the UK.
