As a long time Unilever marketing veteran and foodie herself, Knorr\u2019s chief marketing officer Gina Kiroff<\/strong> knows the importance of cooking inspiration for customers. Today that means showing up where they are (social) in the conversations they are interested in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe are really trying to insert ourselves into culture and be part of the conversation and communities that are already happening,\u201d says Kiroff. \u201cWe want to enable home cooking and we are taking real inspiration from consumers themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Historically Knorr\u2019s business has been globally centered, but over the last 2.5 years, the brand saw an opportunity to expand into the US market. \u201cWe realized we really need to do something disruptive in the U.S. market that could speak to an American consumer,\u201d explains Kiroff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
