Minor Figures Launches "Dairy Disloyalty" Campaign!
Show your disloyalty and win some great prizes! It’s a novel approach, but then Minor Figures
has long stood out as a trailblazer in the realm of plant-based milk. Celebrating its tenth
anniversary this year, the barista-favorite oat milk brand is launching a global campaign, “Dairy
Disloyalty,” encouraging consumers everywhere to embrace the personal and planetary health
benefits of non-dairy milk.
The two-week competition runs May 30 through June 13.
Coffee drinkers in six U.S. cities – Atlanta, Los Angeles, Nashville, New York City, Portland and
San Francisco – must visit six participating cafes in each city (visit the official Dairy Disloyalty
webpage for the names of partner cafes and official rules for the competition). Buy a specialty
drink or coffee made with any plant-based milk, receive a special card, and get it stamped.
Collect stamps from all six cafes, scan the QR code and upload a photo of the card. The first 200
submissions receive a vintage-style Minor Figures bowling shirt! And all submissions will be
enrolled for a chance to win the grand prize, a customized La Marzocco Linea Mini Espresso
Machine!
So what’s the deal with plant-based milk? Besides those with a dairy allergy, it helps reduce our
dependence on cows, which are responsible for a substantial percentage of methane emissions
worldwide. A significant source of greenhouse gases and a major cause of climate change, cattle
farming is also the leading driver of deforestation around the globe. When consumers take part
in “Dairy Disloyalty,” they’ll be showing loyalty to the sustainable future of the Earth.
“Through this two-week awareness campaign mobilizing the coffee community, we hope that
people will start to look at how a small action, switching from dairy to plant-based milk, can help
improve the health of the planet,” explained Francesa Salac, Head of Marketing in North
America for Minor Figures, which is running the campaign in more than 20 cities around the
world including Berlin, London, Melbourne, Paris, Tokyo and Vienna.
