"GXYB" Campaign Kicked Off on GATSBY's English Website in Collaboration with Half-pipe Inline Skating World Champions Yasutoko Brothers
OSAKA, April 10/KYODO JBN/--
Mandom Corp. began on March 30 a new campaign targeting worldwide consumers on its GATSBY English-language global website.
About "GXYB" campaign
In August 2011, GATSBY opened the GATSBY Global Site and GATSBY Global FACEBOOK PAGE aimed at providing brand-related information to and vitalizing communication with global consumers. On March 30, using the website and the web page as a platform, GATSBY began a new campaign called "GXYB" in collaboration with the Yasutoko Brothers, half-pipe inline skating world champions. The Yasutoko Brothers have caught the attention of young people the world over. The GATSBY brand, which targets the same demographic group that loves action-packed sports, aims at increasing the brand's awareness by communicating the cool or, as shown on the site, "KAKKOii" style of Japan to the world.
