Perfect Fools plans to energise Battery drink brand
Perfect Fools will help the Finnish energy drinks brand "cut through in a crowded, yet exciting market.”
Stockholm-based creative agency Perfect Fools has won the global account for Battery Energy drink, with a brief to reinvent its communication within the energy drinks sector.
Launched in 1997, Battery Energy is owned by Finnish brewing and soft drinks company, Sinebrychoff, a subsidiary of the Carlsberg Group. The drink is Sinebrychoff’s biggest and best-known export brand, sold in about 25 countries worldwide.

Perfect Fools is tasked with steering the communications strategy for the brand across all channels – both owned and paid – including campaigns, activations and social media to help it connect with consumers.
It will identify cultural trends and interests where the brand can naturally be placed as part of those communities.

The agency’s experience in bringing brands to a global stage will cut through in a crowded, yet exciting market.”

We believe in brands that stand for something and marketing that’s relevant to popular culture and lifestyle. Together with the team at Battery and Sinebrychoff we will take the brand to the next level.”
