Word from Ms. Valerie Uy, 7-Eleven Philippines’ Head of Marketing Communications Division, on why City Cafe picked Darren as the brand’s endorser
“In choosing a brand endorser, we had to look at the profile of the celebrity to ultimately come up with the best brand fit.
We position City Cafe as your Coffee Bestie – your go-to, always on your side, cheering you on as you go through the small and big moments of life. We’ve also seen a much younger market for coffee: they are young, energetic, and full of life – always on the go.
Darren is perfect for us – he is young, fun, both relatable and inspirational, and is always full of energy. At the same time, he’s already a pro – he’s been in the industry for such a long time – from The Voice kids pa, and never stops working until now! But despite that, he’s always ready to greet everyone – especially his fans, with a smile.
This kind of personality, of energy, and dedication is the best friend we all need.
Of course I would be remiss not to mention his fans, the Darrenatics – a loyal and established base who have been with him all the way.”
