According to sources, there was no pitch involved. TBWA is charged with the creative responsibilities for all three of the condiment brands. The first campaign is set to release in October.

Patrick Tom, executive creative director at TBWA Vietnam, confirmed the news: “Heinz is a widely recognised and well-loved brand in all western markets, and now it's time for Vietnam to experience a taste.”
