BONKERS Celebrates a Monumental Year by Winning Four Prestigious Creative Marketing Awards
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Rhodes Pet Science secured four Platinum MarCom Awards for its pet treats brand, BONKERS, and the "Better when it's BONKERS" campaign. In addition to the MarCom wins, BONKERS recently received a Silver and Bronze Drum Awards, a Silver Shorty Award, and a Platinum Hermes Creative Award in 2024. These are huge wins for the BONKERS brand, which launched under the Rhodes Pet Science portfolio of brands just two years ago.
BONKERS is a new-generation brand, created to better serve modern pet parents. The brand was built to foster the bond between pets and their people with high quality, yet affordable pet treats. The "Better when it's BONKERS" brand story takes life's mundane moments and supercharges them with a BONKERS pet – a playful celebration of all that is uniquely weird and wonderful about our pets. Within 1 week, BONKERS became the most-liked pet treats brand on TikTok globally with more than 58 million views on the #betterwhenitsbonkers hashtag – and still holds that title. BONKERS products are sold at more than 100,000 distribution points across 3 countries.
The MarCom Awards is an international creative competition that honors excellence in marketing and communication and recognizes the creativity, hard work and generosity of industry professionals. This year the program received more than 6,500 submissions from 54 countries. BONKERS was entered into four categories and received Platinum awards in all four categories.
