In a world where connections are increasingly digital, it’s refreshing to experience the joy of coming together over good food, great company, and a shared sense of community.
On May 23, 2025, Chivita|Hollandia brought this joy to life with the third edition of its signature Lifestyle Brunch, themed “Brunch in Bloom.” Held at the stylish 360 by Vertigo in Victoria Island, Lagos, the event was a masterclass in blending dairy, creativity, and connection.
Themed “Brunch in Bloom,” the event was a sensory celebration that brought together food creators, lifestyle influencers, family advocates, and dairy enthusiasts.
The Chivita|Hollandia team, led by Eelco Weber, Managing Director and Adebola Arotiowa, Chief Commercial Officer welcomed guests with open arms, showcasing the company’s commitment to building lifestyle experiences that resonate with modern consumers.
The event hosts, Enioluwa and Simi Sanya, set the tone for the day with their infectious energy, laughter, and storytelling.
As guests mingled and cameras clicked, they were treated to a picturesque brunch spread featuring everyday favorites reimagined with Hollandia’s delicious dairy products. Creative takes on brunch classics and refreshing Chivita mocktails and cocktails added to the festive atmosphere.
One of the highlights of the event was the Milk Foam Art Workshop, where guests watched in awe as an expert barista transformed cups of coffee into edible masterpieces.
Many joined in, crafting heart-shaped swirls and patterns perfect for social media. The interactive stations, including a dairy-inspired mixologist booth and a live Chef Cupid cooking experience, showcased the versatility of dairy in both sweet and savory creations.
In her closing remarks, Barbara Onianwah, Marketing Services Manager teased a soon-to-be-launched e-commerce initiative that promises to take the Chivita|Hollandia experience to the next level.
The platform will onboard influencers, providing them with unique codes for consumers to enjoy special discounts. Influencers whose codes generate the highest purchase volumes will be rewarded, fostering a sense of community and encouraging consumer participation.
As the sun set over Victoria Island, guests departed with full stomachs, inspired palates, and highly coveted gift bags.
The “Brunch in Bloom” edition was a testament to Chivita|Hollandia’s ability to create memorable experiences that bring people together. With every gathering, the company proves that it’s not just about the food – it’s about the connections, creativity, and community that come with it.
