NEI

16/06/2026

Oh, food. We admit, we couldn’t embody this Portuguese stereotype any better. The NEI team is always talking about emotional food heritage, where to eat next, reservations, and the best-this-or-that.

We’re never full when it comes to this topic, and these picks were the hardest to narrow down.

Under The Influence: What’s it all about?

We’re constantly inspired by the things we love: people, culture, travel, and everything in between. We’ve turned our spontaneous conversations about these influences into collages that celebrate what keeps our creative playground alive.

✺ The Brief | Integrated into makro’s year-round influencer marketing, the brand was looking for opportunities to reach its B2B audience.

✺ Our Work | Independent businesses are the ultimate hustlers, and we wanted to get closer to their daily grind and show how makro can be a helping hand. Through this branded content series, we highlighted the brand’s services across different needs (from coffee and pastries to fresh fish and Korean food), raising awareness and relevance for its offering.

✺ Context
In Portugal, only 30.5% of waste is recycled. Although this figure has tripled over the past 20 years, it still falls below the EU average (48.5%) and is only halfway towards the 2030 target (PORDATA, 2023).

✺ Briefing
, in partnership with , wanted to raise awareness of the importance of recycling and improve public understanding of the topic by engaging influential voices on social media, organically.

✺ Strategy
Recycling is often communicated in an institutional or academic tone, making it feel dull, everything IKEA is not. Rather than simply teaching people how to recycle, we needed to rethink how the message is delivered, tapping into something that already drives genuine curiosity.

✺ Idea
We invited Portuguese artist to create a series of temporary flash tattoos featuring eight IKEA products that commonly raise questions around recycling. These designs were brought to life by eight influencers and shared across social media.

A limited collection created exclusively for online communities, prompting people to ask about the meaning behind each tattoo, giving us the opportunity to say: “recycle them in the right place”.

In doing so, we woke up a playful and engaging conversation around circularity.

✺ The Brief (was simple) | makro is everywhere, and more people need to know it.

✺ Our work | This challenge was part of our annual influencer marketing strategy, which also aimed to bring makro closer to the local food scene. With this in mind, we saw an opportunity to move beyond purely tactical, service-led content and instead create a story-driven campaign spotlighting Portugal’s soulful, off-the-map locations. A project that honours the country’s rich culinary heritage while showcasing the brand’s far-reaching impact.

✺ The Brief | In 2024, H3 made a bold move by recreating a burger inspired by one of Portugal’s most traditional and iconic dishes, the Francesinha, and they wanted a digital creator strategy that explored the concept “Este vai dar molho”, tapped into a cultural debate as old as the dish itself to launch the innovation.

✺ The Campaign | Starting a conversation about such a beloved dish could go really well… or really wrong. The Portuguese don’t joke about food. To keep it fun and light in the comments’ section, we teamed up with soulful gastronomic creators who take food seriously.

From in-store tastings to heartfelt tributes in Porto, they shared genuine excitement for the h3 à La Francesinha and pride in Portuguese heritage, helping make the campaign a huge success.
