Hymer wins the German Brand Award

Hymer has won “Gold” at the prestigious German Brand Awards. The award was presented in the category “Excellence in Brand Strategy and Creation: Brand Communication – Classic Campaign” for the company’s Venture S launch campaign. The award ceremony took place on 15 June 2023 in Berlin. 
 “This award shows that the creativity and quality we poured into our campaign has paid off,” says Frank Heinrichsen, Head of Marketing at Hymer GmbH & Co. KG. “The jury’s verdict also makes it clear that we are still on the right track with our premium strategy and are living up to our reputation as an innovation driver in the industry – not only with our motorhomes, but also in terms of our communications and dialogue with our customers.” 
The idea and concept for the campaign was developed in close collaboration with beyond disciplines, a strategic creative consultancy based in Munich. Andreas Hielscher, a creative consultant and founder of beyond disciplines described the creative process: “In our campaign for the exclusive Venture S off-road vehicle, we focused on an overarching master story and addressed new target groups through an appealing style and progressive tone. The campaign consisted of a multi-level strategy that included a “newslettering journey”, high-quality campaign motifs, an unveiling video and a video-supported product page, as well as a real-world presence at trade fairs – true to the motto: ‘Vision Comes True’.”

“Vision Comes True” – the Hymer Venture S campaign
“The emotive and outstandingly high-quality staging of the new off-road vehicle, which is always the hero of the piece, was remarkable, with brand-typical features, creativity and a high-quality implementation that impresses down to the smallest detail. A convincing campaign that makes you want to experience nature in the ’Venture S’.” This was the jury’s verdict.
