940 views JULIUS - The last lunch
Yes that’s true, the infamous Julius puppet that starred in the Nando’s ad and has become a South African celebrity overnight (move over Vernon) has officially been sold on auction for R 100 000. Ryan Lotter from ColorPress in Johannesburg beat all the hopefuls. According to Nando’s Marketing Manager Sylvester Chauke, they wanted to raise at least R 100 000 and are very pleased to be able to make a significant contribution to the Self-Help Development Organisation, which empowers young men by enabling them to finish matric and learn mechanics, electrical engineering and woodworking skills.
Lara Easthorpe, Senior Brand Manager said “we are very sad to see Julius go because we have become very fond of him and has become a highlight in the office. We did however offer him one last Nando’s lunch and he’s always invited to Nando’s anytime”.
