Tiger Beer plans UK spending hike to £5.5m

Tiger Beer is to put £5.5m into promoting its brand this year, its biggest marketing investment in the UK to date.

Last year the brand had a UK adspend of just £85,000, according to Nielsen Media Research.

The increase in marketing spend is part of a pan-European initiative mounted by its owner Asia Pacific Breweries to grow the brand outside its Asian heartland.

This month Tiger is rolling out an outdoor campaign that presents a nostalgic vision of Singapore. Created by CHI & Partners, it is running in six major UK cities, including London, where Tiger has the biggest penetration. The brand is also due to launch a digital drive in May.

In addition, Tiger has a number of media tie-ups planned with magazines, including GQ and Esquire.

It is also in talks with retailers to increase its listings, as it is associated mainly with the restaurant trade.
