Heaptalk, Jakarta — One of Mondelez International’s products, Oreo, officially launched the Oreo x Blackpink collaboration thoroughly in Indonesia (1/6). The exclusive edition is only sold in Asian markets, starting with Indonesia as the first country.
In Indonesia, the Oreo x Blackpink collaboration will take place from December 2022 to March 2023. Afterward, Oreo will target other countries, namely Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, and South Korea.
The collaboration with four Blackpink members, namely Jisoo, Jennie, Rose, and Lisa present exclusive edition biscuits, photocard collections, and AI personalization videos.
