To kick off our campaign prelaunch, we designed a series of vibrant posters that showcased the diverse dishes that can be crafted with the product.




The posters included famous landmarks and symbols from different provinces across South Africa.




Following this, we launched a nationwide campaign to discover the most mouthwatering Lucky Star dishes – and share the stories of 25 diverse chefs.

Each chef brings their own unique approach to cooking with Lucky Star, reflecting the culinary traditions and flavors of their home province.


Trusted and true recipes, reflecting the limitless versatility of Lucky Star.


To coincide with the book launch, hand painted murals were created in each province across the country. Featuring iconic landmarks and culturally significant symbols, the illustrative artwork captures the vibrancy, energy, and beauty of South Africa.
