Dole’s “Making Healthy Wishes Comes True” campaign launches today as the latest manifestation of a health and wellness licensing collaboration with The Walt Disney Company that started in 2016. Continuing through March 31, 2024, this new program includes enchanted recipes, interactive digital downloads, in-store collectible stickers, and a series of inspirational how-to virtual classes sparked by Asha and the other inhabitants of Rosas.
“For 100 years Disney has shown us that there’s no greater magic in the universe than a true wish in your heart,” said Bil Goldfield, Dole’s director of communications. “At Dole our wish is to make the world a healthier place. We are asking believers everywhere to share their wishes of health and happiness with us so they can inspire the world toward a better, brighter tomorrow.”
A special feature of the campaign is a set of six collectible DOLE® Banana stickers and one unique DOLE® Pineapple tag featuring Asha, Star, Dahlia, Valentino, Queen Amaya and King Magnifico from Disney’s Wish on tens of millions of pieces of Dole-branded fruit at supermarkets across North America.
To encourage banana and Disney fans to collect the full set of stickers, Dole will offer the downloadable, printable Dole Peel and Play Sticker and Enchanted Recipe Book featuring spaces for each sticker and a character-inspired appetizer, snack, dessert or smoothie recipe created by Melanie Marcus, MA, RD, Dole’s nutrition and health communications manager, and her team. The sticker book features a magical interactive experience that allow Dole customers to recite a rhyming recipe enchantment and unlock a special video surprise on each character page using the first-ever, downloadable and printable Magic Banana Wands.
