Mitch Marner excels on the ice with the Toronto Maple Leafs, and now the right winger is collaborating with Skip to launch 'Mitch's Mix' candy box. An exclusive partnership with Candy Funhouse, a Giannis Antetokounmpo company and the largest online candy retailer in North America that promises to ignite nostalgic joy amongst candy lovers.
Mitch's Mix candy boxes offer a wide variety of treats to satisfy all your cravings, from sweet and sour delights to decadent chocolate and savory snacks. Enjoy a mix of nostalgic classics and trendy treats, providing a trip down memory lane with a modern twist. This box truly has something for everyone.
In connection with the release of the unique boxes, Skip is introducing a new digital ad featuring Mitch, in partnership with Candy Funhouse. The content, to be shown on organic and paid social channels, showcases Mitch's thoughtful selection of candies and snacks that evoke nostalgia from his youth.
"As a homegrown Canadian company, we have always been proud of our roots and our passion for connecting people through food", said Phil Sylver, Head of Creative, Brand and Content at Skip. "Snacking on candy, hand-picked by a local hero like Mitch Marner is a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth, whether you're a hockey fan or not. Supporting our mission to deliver joy to the doorsteps of Canadians, we're thrilled that our customers can now order Mitch's top candy picks, exclusively on Skip."
"This is another great example of how pop culture and candy go so well together. We're excited to collaborate with Skip and Mitch to bring a little sweetness to the GTA", says Dave Theodoropoulos, Chief Marketing Officer at Candy Funhouse. "This will be an experience for any and all candy lovers!"
Proceeds from every sale will be donated to the Marner Assist Foundation, which works to support children and youth by providing resources that will make a significant impact on their lives. Every order will have a chance to win an exclusive piece of merchandise, signed by Mitch Marner.
