Thailand – Tra Mongkut, a Thai fertiliser brand, has teamed up with VML Thailand and upcycling expert Sackitem to launch an innovative campaign that turns used fertiliser bags into a stylish, functional streetwear collection tailored for the agricultural community.

Titled ‘AFF: ALL FOR FARMERS,’ this farmer-focused fashion campaign highlights the impact of creativity and purpose-driven marketing. By transforming Tra Mongkut’s 18-8-8 fertiliser bags into a stylish and practical collection, it demonstrates that sustainability can seamlessly merge with modern design.

The upcycled streetwear collection features functional and stylish pieces tailored for farmers. The AFF Bag is a spacious yet lightweight crossbody bag with multiple compartments and secure zipper pockets for heavy loads. The AFF Hat offers sun and rain protection, complete with ventilation and pockets for tools. The AFF Vest is a brightly coloured utility vest designed for visibility and functionality, while the adjustable AFF Apron includes pockets for various tasks, ensuring a secure fit for all sizes.

Prasert Maekwatana, chairman of the executive board and acting managing director for Terragro Fertiliser Co., Ltd., emphasised that the initiative goes beyond fashion; it aims to celebrate and support the backbone of Thailand’s economy.

“Thai farmers are vital to the agricultural sector and serve as the backbone of our nation. Tra Mongkut is committed to providing creative solutions that uplift and empower these essential contributors. And our previous initiatives, like the ‘Shelter Signboard’ campaign and the ‘Lifecover Loincloth’ have demonstrated our commitment, winning international acclaim while significantly benefiting farmers,” Maekwatana shared. 

Chatchai Butsabakorn, executive creative director at VML Thailand, added, “For the ‘AFF: ALL FOR FARMERS’ initiative, we worked closely with Sackitem from concept development through to production. Our primary focus is on delivering tangible benefits to farmers, ensuring our designs meet their practical needs. The outcome is a range of essential tools suitable for all agricultural practices and versatile enough for daily use—from market trips to family outings.” 

All of ‘AFF: ALL FOR FARMERS’ collection pieces are available for purchase worldwide on platforms such as Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shop, making sustainable style easily accessible to a global audience.

Bangkok, Thailand – Celebrating its 40th anniversary, KFC Thailand has launched the first-ever Spicy Relief Hotline to support Thai diners who will try their intensely spicy but limited edition ‘Kai Jai Ded’ menu. 

Made in partnership with VML Thailand, the Spicy Relief Hotline (+66 2793 3111) is KFC Thailand’s creative take on providing help to Thai spice lovers to conquer the burn and enjoy the thrill of intense heat like never before from their ‘Kai Jai Ded’ menu. 

The Spicy Relief Hotline offers callers two unique approaches to calming the burn. For callers who want to vent it out, they can press ‘0’, and they will be directed to trained professionals who are ready to offer support, advice, and even a listening ear should they wish to vent their spicy-induced frustrations. 

On the other hand, callers who prefer a more introspective experience can press ‘1’ to relax and recharge through an automated system that delivers random spicy relief sounds, including calming classical music, soothing nature ASMR, and meditative sounds to ease the fiery sensation.

‘Kai Jai Ded’ is KFC Thailand’s limited edition menu designed to set every diner’s taste buds on fire, leaving them sweating and shedding tears but also craving for more. The menu has been on hiatus for two years and is now making a fiery comeback due to fervent fan demands.

The deliciously hot menu has received love from fans, with some dialling the hotline for a little dollop of relief after their burning bite. 

Suhayl Limbada, chief marketing officer at KFC Thailand, said, “With 40 years in business, KFC Thailand is determined to captivate spicy enthusiasts across the nation with ‘Kai Jai Ded,’ creating a shared experience of unstoppable, addictive heat through our unique and distinctive taste.”
