Daniel Pérez del Valle, VP of Marketing at Burger King Puerto Rico: The license covers seven toys, a stuffed animal with a Capitán Avispa strap, three printed bags, and three sticker books
In addition, they decorated Burger King’s branch in Plaza Río with the characters and the film colors, transforming it into a kind of Avispatrópolis. The remaining 159 Burger King restaurants on the island are handing out lunch boxes and the seven toys inspired by the movie.
TOY AND LUNCH LICENSE
“We have been working with the BK corporation for many years regarding children’s licenses, including lunch boxes. The Caribbean Cinema team, who have been our business partners for many years, came in March last year and told us about the opportunity of the animated film with Juan Luis Guerra and the possibility of sponsoring it in Puerto Rico,” said Daniel Pérez del Valle, VP of Marketing at Burger King Puerto Rico.
“We saw the opportunity to replace one of the corporation licenses and use one with Juan Luis Guerra,” said Pérez. They met several times with Burger King, as well as with some of the partners in the project -Caribbean Cinema and Spanglish Movies-, to explain the project’s relevance and authorize them to replace a license for Capitán Avispa.
“The license covers seven toys, a stuffed animal with a Capitán Avispa strap, three printed bags, and three sticker books,” Pérez commented.
They were so encouraged because the film has a great cast with stars like Luis Fonsi in the voice of Capitán Avispa. “This is a film able to compete with the great animated films,” he said.
He highlighted the contribution of Caribbean Cinema, Gustavo Aparicio, and Spanglish Movies for the crystallization of the initiative.
“We are very excited to team up with Spanglish Movies – the support and collaboration of Gustavo (Aparicio) has been spectacular -, the maestro Juan Luis Guerra and his dream of Capitán Avispa in the launch in Puerto Rico. This film promises a great message for families, and the Capitán Avispa lunch boxes offer all children the opportunity to collect the themes of the film and their favorite characters,” concluded Pérez.

STROKE OF GENIUS
“Burger King Puerto Rico’s collaboration with Capitán Avispa is a stroke of genius in marketing. By aligning their brand with this heartwarming and action-packed film, they created a perfect combination that resonates deeply with Latino families across the island. The film’s themes of bravery, perseverance, and the importance of family unity strike similar chords with the cultural values that Puerto Rican families hold dear. Burger King’s promotion not only offers an entertaining experience but also celebrates the rich traditions and bonds that make Latino families so special. With its finger on the pulse of its target audience, Burger King Puerto Rico created a campaign that transcends mere advertising,” commented Gustavo Aparicio, CEO of Spanglish Movies.
